hey HN, watched another “voice AI” startup raise $81 million for a fancy wrapper around whisper + gemini. nah. open-sourcing the one i built for myself instead → jarvis.ceo 30-sec demo: https://jarvis.ceo repo: https://github.com/Akshayaggarwal99/jarvis-ai-assistant hold Fn → talk → release → text + punctuation appears instantly 100% local or bring your own keys zero tracking, zero subscription, zero bullshit download the dmg or fork it and go wild. i’m just one guy with insomnia and a macbook. if it saves you 5 minutes today, a star would make my entire month thanks for looking akshay

Is Deepgram local or open source?

Deepgram is cloud (not local, not OSS) but their free tier is basically unlimited for personal use, so $0 forever.

Want fully local? Whisper is open source and runs 100 % on your Mac. Tiny/faster models are just one line in the code away — anyone can add them in 30 seconds (PR welcome )

Both options free, zero data sent if you pick Whisper.
