ZeroKeys is a voice dictation overlay for Windows. Press a hotkey, speak naturally, and your words appear at the cursor — in any app. No cloud. No accounts. Just your voice.
umm hope your week has started well… I was talking to Cheyene earlier but reception was really bad and I think their going to handle the first part of the project, but I'm not totally sure. Also, I told the team the the new timeline should be ready by Friday, although it's probably going to slip.

Three seconds. Three steps.
From anywhere — even while typing in another app. Or click the mic button on the overlay.
The overlay shows a live waveform. Audio is captured in the background — no UI freezing.
Text appears at your cursor. Clean, punctuated, ready to send. That's it.
No bloat. Just the tools that matter.
Real-time audio visualization that dances when you speak, goes flat when silent.
Removes "um", "uh", "like", fixes capitalization and punctuation. Optionally runs through a local LLM.
Text lands at your cursor via Ctrl+V. Or just copy to clipboard — your choice.
Minimizes to tray. Left-click to toggle overlay. Right-click for settings, mic toggle, or exit.
Alt+X by default. Change anytime in Settings — takes effect immediately. No restart needed.
Choose a fast English-only model, or a multilingual model that auto-detects the language.
ZeroKeys runs 100% offline on your CPU. Your voice never leaves your machine. No sign-up, no data collection, no internet required — except for the initial model download. Everything happens locally.
ZeroKeys pastes directly at your cursor. Browser, IDE, chat, email — it doesn't care.
