Soufflé, a private speech tool for macOS

Field notes

The page describes a macOS overlay that sends dictated text into the field where the cursor is already active, with a local cleanup pass available afterward. Its meeting workflow uses system-audio capture to distinguish the user from other speakers and organizes transcripts by day; the page also mentions optional Opus recordings, a retention policy, and recovery if the recognition engine stalls. Documentation covers export formats, an MCP server, and a command-line interface, while the default speech model is identified as Kyutai STT 1B.
