Golos – Ultra Lightweight Free Wispr Flow Alternative

AI Analysis
●●SolidCozy
Hotkey STT pasted to clipboard. Minimal, works. Whisper Flow done at no cost.
Strengths
- •Genuinely minimal—hotkey + background daemon + TOML config is clean UX for CLI users
- •Free tier via Deepgram credit ($200) removes signup friction; dictionary system (replacements) adds surprising utility for transcription fixing
Weaknesses
- •Dependent on Deepgram API key (not self-hosted); once $200 credit burns, becomes paid tier like competitors
- •macOS-only (Accessibility permission), zero differentiation from Wispr Flow beyond being free; missing cross-platform ambition

Post Description
So I built an ultra lightweight Wispr Flow for the terminal. Deepgram is giving a pretty nice offer for $200 for free. Feel free to check it out and let me know how it goes.

Enunciate – Paste a speech script, find the words you'll mispronounce
Clever and focused: paste your script and Enunciate highlights risky words from a curated list (~350) using pattern heuristics (silent letters, odd spellings) and lets you click any word to hear a pronunciation and see IPA or simplified respelling. The small UX wins — presentation mode and US/UK toggles — make rehearsals smoother, but the approach is rule-based and limited by its wordlist; it doesn't adapt to your personal mispronunciations or contextual pronunciation edge cases.
