Notifications CTAs are better in the next release of talat. Today, the "Dismiss" button carries equal weight with the secondary CTA ("Stop recording" in the second shot). The danger CTA state ("Delete recording") is completely new - a glaring gap in today's notifications 🫣

If you use talat - how would you vote? In fact, why not go one better and answer directly on discord? discord.gg/EZfV9yHzXR

We have thousands of unit and in-memory database tests on talat, but the stability of our end-to-end suite - which drives the real desktop application we ship to users - has suffered recently. Not anymore. Pleased to get this one green again 🟢

Another talat dictation feature coming soon (built purely to scratch my own itch): refocus the *last* app you dictated into. Great when you're having e.g. an ongoing conversation with Claude and don't want to have to manually refocus your terminal to resume it

Looking forward to shipping this one. I can't count the number of times I've absent-mindedly hit escape during a long, rambling dictation and accidentally cancelled it. The next version of talat gives you two seconds grace to undo a cancellation and pick up dictating where you left off.

Yesterday: one of our worst days ever 🔻😭 Today: our best day ever 🔺🥳 Indie life in a nutshell

I keep filling my M4 Mac Mini's 500GB disk. It looks like a combination of this enclosure: www.amazon.co.uk/OWC-Portable... And this stick: www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Inte... Should do the job? But, especially on the storage side, the options are... somewhat overwhelming. All help appreciated 🙏

I selfishly snuck in a new @talat.app feature purely for ME. My home office is upstairs, my wife's is downstairs, and if we're both on a call with our doors open (summer - it's hot), speech from her room could occasionally leak into my transcripts. Well, not anymore 😎

I'm aware that the @talat.app pricing page is... awful. Each pricing tier is basically just a different way of paying for the same thing: there is no feature gating on different plans, so I can't do a classic plan vs. feature comparison table. Roasts in the thread, please 👇

We built a tool for @talat.app where AI agents can upload screenshots with context (branch, commit, description, etc), and humans and AI can search the 'gallery' I love it. It's a durable, visual evolution of the product, and lets agents attach and 'see' screenshots on GitHub PRs

Seriously - when did this become okay? When did we get this lazy? Over 600MB just for the download 1.4 gigabytes when installed wtf

Just how fancy is this bloody nest going to be?

Pfft, and my wife says I'm not cool 😎

AGI achieved

Hands up if you're happy to see those rate limits reset this morning 🙋

Get this shit to the very TOP 🔺

Back in March, @talat.app got hit with a Stripe chargeback - when someone disputes a charge directly with their bank. Disputes cost us money and do permanent reputational harm. As a vendor, the odds are stacked against you winning if you contest, and electing to contest costs you MORE money (1/...)

If I had to take a shot every time I read the phrase "load-bearing", I'd be drunk every day by 7am

New month, new me. I promise all diffs will be like this for the entirety of July. Honest. 🫡

June talat highlights: - Dictation mode - File import mode - Better multilingual support, especially for non-latin and right-to-left languages - Improved capitalisation and punctuation during real-time transcription - A more capable MCP connector that writes to talat as well as reading from it

I'm sure I sound like a broken record at this point, but I am enormously proud of the latest talat release. Every significant release we ship makes the last one feel obsolete. And we've already got a ton more awesome stuff lined up for the *next* release.

0.13.0 is here and it is *huge*! - Chapters - Actions - Hugely improved multilingual experience - Faster, more accurate real-time transcription previews - Tons more over at talat.app/changelog We're closer than ever to 1.0.0 - there's never been a better time to grab talat at pre-release pricing.

The Northern Powerhouse

So much work went into the 0.12.x release. We're getting ever closer to the elusive 1.0.0 milestone and the end of pre-release. I can't wait!

talat.app@talat.app · 2mo ago

v0.12.0 is out! (And... so is v0.12.1). This includes a huge internal overhaul which hopefully you *won't* notice, and a ton of new features and refinements which hopefully you *will*. Download at talat.app

Final preflight checks for @talat.app 0.12.0 are underway

Woohoo! No more bumping into ultra-conservative Claude design limits. Might not be celebrating if/when Claude Design chews through my quota faster than usual, but for now, awesome.

We're on discord! A few of you asked, so here it is. Come and join us to talk about all things talat: discord.gg/WhsaWejN

Oops. We don't talk about what happened there. Everything went perfectly smoothly.

It's no bun rewrite, but we're exploring a really exciting spike which would open up a load of new possibilities on @talat.app

Granola locked users' meeting transcripts. So a web dev with 20 years of experience built @talat.app. The app has a one-time fee of $49, uses offline models for transcription, and allows MCP connections. weekinvoiceai.substack.com/p/how-talat-built-a-local-first-stack
