OpenLess is an open-source cross-platform voice input application that lets users hold a hotkey, speak, and have AI-polished text inserted at the cursor in any app. Built with Rust and Tauri 2, it serves as an open alternative to commercial dictation tools like Typeless and Wispr Flow.
Use cases
- dictate text into any app with a hotkey
- replace Wispr Flow with an open-source voice input tool
- speak instead of typing in ChatGPT or Notion
- AI-polish dictated text before insertion
- voice-to-text dictation on macOS and Windows
When to choose
- you want an open-source alternative to Typeless or Wispr Flow
- you need system-wide voice dictation across arbitrary apps
- you want dictated text cleaned up by an LLM in your writing style
When to avoid
- you need mobile or web dictation
- you require fully offline transcription with no LLM dependency
- you need a library or SDK to embed speech recognition in your own software
