Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A macOS voice tool turns spoken instructions into cleaned prompts, resolves code names from the active window, and can send questions to Claude.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

Loq combines dictation with local code-context lookup: the page says it reads text near the cursor, visible symbols, files in the folder, and the current Git branch through macOS accessibility APIs. Its example converts spoken instructions about “pipeline swift” and “hotkey manager” into Pipeline.swift and HotkeyManager. The listed requirements are Apple Silicon and macOS 26 or later, with a free tier capped at 400 words and 10 cleanups per day.
