# GTalk — offline voice dictation for Windows (open source, MIT, © 2026 Grant Hooks)
WisprFlow-style: press a hotkey, talk, and clean text is typed into whatever window has focus. Tagline: **"press · talk · done"**
Global hotkey Ctrl+Alt+Space; the thumb-wheel mode button on a Logitech MX Master 3S doubles as a dictation toggle (mention by name in text only; no logos).
Engines: Whisper large-v3-turbo on GPU (default), Vosk on CPU, optional OpenAI gpt-4o-transcribe in the cloud.
Voice commands ("new line", "scratch that"), spoken punctuation, filler-word removal, auto-capitalization, custom dictionary with auto-learned proper nouns,
a "studio" window with live WPM + history, a floating pill while dictating. No accounts. Free; install with Setup.bat.
CTA "Get it on GitHub" → https://github.com/granthooks/GTalk (public).
Privacy: audio stays on your machine BY DEFAULT (the optional OpenAI engine is cloud) — word it exactly that carefully.
Brand: dark bg #0b0d12, panels #12151d/#171b26, accent violet #7c6cff/#a78bfa, good #34d399 (also a light theme). Fonts: Segoe UI Variable Display + Georgia accents
(you may pick web fonts in that spirit). ASCII "GTALK" banner exists in README (/mnt/c/gkh/documents/Projects/GTalk/README.md). UI reference: /mnt/c/gkh/documents/Projects/GTalk/ui/main.html

## Your two variants (fundamentally different from each other AND from the other 24 pages in the collection)

### Variant A: /gtalk/press-talk-done/
Pinterest mood refs: refs/gtalk/a-pin*.jpg (may be empty — then work from the direction alone)
Dark, minimal, product-demo-as-hero. Signature: a REAL keyboard-driven demo — the page listens for Ctrl+Alt+Space (and a big on-screen key); pressing it shows the floating violet pill with a live-looking waveform, and a scripted dictation types into a fake editor window: filler words appear then get struck out, spoken punctuation converts, 'scratch that' deletes the last phrase, 'new line' breaks. WPM counter ticks. Features as terse spec rows; install as a terminal block. Violet accents on near-black, a refined grotesk + Georgia-ish italic accents.

### Variant B: /gtalk/ink-from-air/
Pinterest mood refs: refs/gtalk/b-pin*.jpg (may be empty — then work from the direction alone)
Experimental, light, typographic: warm paper background, violet ink. Signature: a three.js/WebGL PARTICLE field shaped as a sound waveform that MORPHS into words (sample glyph points from an offscreen canvas) — 'press · talk · done' — and back, driven by scroll; hover disturbs particles like breath. Then sections that play with the idea of voice becoming type (letterpress, variable font weight tied to a fake 'volume'). Elegant, gallery-like.

The direction is a strong starting point, not a cage: if you find a better idea that serves the same concept, take it — but keep the two variants radically different.
