@@oscarlopez8396 yes! You start typing and it filters by copied text (or in the case of files or clipboard data, by title). Then you press enter and it will paste, or press enter with a modifier for another action.

MacWhisper is great! and I love one-time payment apps as well. Actually, that is one of the biggest reasons I also recommend SuperWhisper, because it's a one time payment without ongoing fees (and without using your own API tokens).

I don't use it for the reasons I mentioned at 0:52 . While it recognizes buttons and can assign similar actions as BM, it's really heavy on system resources (has random memory leaks and often takes too much ram), it makes unnecessary online requests, it scatters files everywhere... I tried it when I first got the mouse but quickly noticed these issues - you can find many similar complaints on Reddit and other forums. It just wasn't worth the trouble for me. BetterMouse is just an option that I found integrates very well with the rest of my workflow (and has a few hacks not available on the official app). I'd say if you are happy you can stick with it. But if you want to try BetterMouse, they offer a trial version you can test out.

Yeah, trial and error, unfortunately. And nothing guarantees that it will stay like that, since developers can (and sometimes do) change this if they want to improve compatibility with other apps (though this also may end up negatively affecting some others). But this is usually an issue only for when you want key presses to be detected... I try to avoid that as much as possible. I suggested the developers of BetterMouse to incorporate the ability to run scripts but I guess they didn't think it was necessary 🤷‍♂.

To be honest, I haven't kept up with Wispr Flow updates since my review. I follow their social media, but they haven't addressed the privacy concerns publicly. I was hoping they'd explain these issues openly, but so far, nothing. About the system resources, I think that might stay the same since they want to run on multiple platforms. I suspect it's an Electron app (though I'm not certain), which would explain the performance trade-offs. That's common when developers want to support many systems. As for the constant internet requests and login item auto-insertion issues, I can't say if they've improved. I uninstalled it after discovering these problems during testing, and I don't plan to test it again. Happy with Super Whisper for now.

@@afadingthought Thanks for your insights here. Although I have to admit to being intrigued, I also feel like playing it safe until/unless I hear a whole lot more favorable news.

Suggestion taken! Thanks! I'm working on a big update now and users will be able to set custom sounds per action. This will be easier for users that use the external trigger but I think it can also be set per hotkey. Will also add a configuration option for sound when reaching the end of the list.

Someone with this exact error opened an issue on Github and I outlined some troubleshooting guide, so feel free to comment there. He didn't get back to me but if you try and want to follow the conversation there I'd be happy to help. In short, when on your Mac, the whole transcription happens with the KM macro not the Shortcut, so it's very likely the culprit here in KM... but it's all about testing and finding out: github.com/ognistik/km-ai-memos/issues/3

Clop has options to convert only to few formats, and the developer has mentioned that this app is more focused on optimization than conversion, so if you don't see the format you need it probably is not possible. You can ask directly on the Discord server: discord.gg/99vACD8D5u

Hi! Thank you! The screen recording app is Screen Studio, the annotations are made with Bananotate, and the key presses come from one Alfred workflow I made (inspired by Klack, but with my own sounds, and mouse sounds): th-cam.com/video/_Xd86bBDAco/w-d-xo.html

@@mindtheyoutubegap both 🙂

Thanks for the kind words - I'm happy it's helpful. I don't use DaVinci Resolve myself, so I wouldn't be the right person to make that video :) I might share some of my setup with FCPx in the future, though. Some of the same principles could still apply. Thanks again.

Kando is a cross-platform pie menu for your desktop

Yes. I love it.

@@afadingthoughtthanks

Thank you so much! 🙏

Well, context is definitely a BIG one is. But things I also consider important is flexibility of use (some are only good at dictation), user interface, automation possilibities, and pricing. I doubt MacWhisper will ever include models like Sonnet 3.5 at a one time price like superwhisper, but if they implemented a better way to move between AI prompts when dictating, if they added clipboard and app context, if they added a timeout feature to loaded models (so it's not always so heavy on RAM while in the background), and if they had a good history feature... that's where I think competition would be getting interesting. Currently I'm happy with SuperWhisper and MacWhisper (I use them for different things). But still keeping an eye on the others that are popping here and there. Will see if anything better comes along. If anything else finds a place in my workflow or if I'm seriously considering it I'll be happy to share about it.

Thank you!

Hey! I'm happy you took the class and I'm also looking forward to our chat. Thanks for leaving a review - glad it was helpful. All the best!

@@smalok-x5w I name my modes based on whether they capture my Clipboard (CB), or if they capture App context aside of Clipboard (CX).

You can start by setting up your configuration like this: i.imgur.com/dI6Rem9.png ... and then setting up these two hokeys to copy and then paste in that same order: i.imgur.com/bxVcJlK.png

@@afadingthought Robert, could you please share with us your idea on keyboard shortcuts? What is your setup?

Here's how my current setup looks like: gist.github.com/ognistik/873a313f8c316677f06084f0eba74a79

Thank you so much for your feedback! I think there's still a lot to explore with SuperWhisper and these apps. I'm not sure how detailed I can be about the Alfred workflow since it involves lots of scripting, and most of it just came straight out of AI because I know very little myself :) But yeah, maybe I'll think about doing some more content about the entire creation process that I got through when making one of these automations. Oh, and about the KM macros, I've tried my best to add comments on everything in there. If you have any specific questions, just let me know! I may do another video in the future explaining how to customize the voice commands section. Everything in the macros is still pretty experimental, and the app is constantly changing, so some things of the automation may need some adjustments to make them more stable. Will definitely consider sharing more. Thank you!!

@@afadingthought Understood, I'm looking for a more comprehensive user / configuration guide. I love how you're using all three apps and I've downloaded and installed them all, I just need to understand how I get from install to operational.

@@simondevine1021 I see, I get what you're saying. You mean more along the lines of how to get started with these apps or making use of their features. A very good starting point is the forums for both Alfred and Keyboard Maestro (well, and Neil's channel for SW). I think Alfred has an even better documentation on its website. Depending on what you're interested in, you can search Google for Alfred hotkeys, snippets, and universal which are the main things I use in the workflow. With Keyboard Maestro, in this specific automation, you don't need to worry too much about how to trigger it yourself (once you get past the setup I mention in README over on github) because the Alfred workflow is on charge of that for you. I find it really helpful to use external triggers with AppleScript, so I might try to make a more in depth video on that, but it's something that the normal user probably won't use unless they start running out of keyboard shortcuts. If you have any specific questions, I'm happy to help guide you. You make a great point; maybe I should do a more basic overview of these apps.

Thank you, Brad, for your comment! I really appreciate it and I’m glad to hear that this is useful to you. I also use SuperWhisper to clean up my thoughts. Sometimes, I get random ideas for YT, content, or others, and during the day, I jot down a few bullet points. When I’m ready to talk, I just have those points in front of me and can speak freely of whatever comes to my mind to expand on them. I have a prompt in Super Whisper that helps me organize my thoughts, just like you mentioned. Regarding your interest in integrating SW with note-taking, I also use voice commands for this, similar to what I showed in the video for opening websites. However, I set this up using Keyboard Maestro, not Alfred. I'm not sure if you're familiar with Keyboard Maestro, but I find it better for this specific kind of task. I actually went ahead and updated the macro link over at Github last night to make sure the note-taking integration is available in case you want to check it out. I wish we could do this with Alfred alone, but we don't have a simple way to trigger AppleScripts after recording yet. Until then, we need to use workarounds like Keyboard Maestro (or Hazel), which watches folders for new files. Check out this clip where I show you how this works; it might help! preview.screen.studio/share/JTImzupY and if you have any questions feel free to reach out at yt@afadingthought.com ... If you got a Github account you can also simply open an issue on the official repo, maybe others may benefit from it: github.com/ognistik/alfred-superwhisper/issues

@@afadingthought Thank you so much for taking the time to create that video for me, Robert. It was very helpful and I'm making some progress on getting the superwhisper integrations with Roam. Additionally, if you're in the market for an equally incredible and powerful tool as Alfred, I would strongly urge you to check out Raycast. I've been using it for a few months now and their development and integration with AI along with the an incredible amount of robust plugins are making it harder and harder for me to stick with Alfred solely going forward. Raycast is the first spotlight replacement since Alfred that I've considered switching to fully. Although the learning curve for building plugins in Raycast is a little steeper than Alfred's in my opinion, I think that the benefits could potentially outweigh much more heavily down the line. Thanks again for the help and keep up the great work!

You can download the latest version from here: github.com/ognistik/alfred-superwhisper/releases/latest and the links are in the bottom: i.imgur.com/E3n1Euc.png

Since it’s not an official Alfred workflow do I have to copy and paste your code into Alfred? Can you explain how to do this please 👌

@@nigelthompson8312 Hi Nigel! You don't need to paste any code. Just download the Alfred workflow file from GitHub latest release and double-click it. This will open Alfred automatically. From there, you can follow along with the setup process of the video. While this workflow isn't in the Alfred Gallery, it works just like any other workflow - simply double-click the downloaded file and you're good to go. A quick clip showing you: preview.screen.studio/share/E9WAecn5 ... At the end of this quick video, I also downloaded the Keyboard Maestro macro. Don't worry about that one if you don't have Keyboard Maestro.
