I wanted to talk to my notes instead of typing at them — ask a question while pacing around, have it read something back, dictate a note without touching the keyboard. So I built it.

It’s voice-first — not a chat window with a mic button, but built for talking: a side panel with an orb that reacts to whoever is speaking, and you just talk. It can search and read your vault, open a note, follow [[links]], headings and #tags, and — with confirmation — append to the current note or create a new one. Tell it “from now on, always…” and it remembers, in a plain Markdown file you can edit. Sessions are saved as regular Markdown notes, so past conversations are searchable like anything else in your vault. Say goodbye and it hangs up.

A few honest details:

  • OpenAI Realtime API over WebRTC, so it’s low-latency. Bring your own key, no backend, no account.
  • Your vault stays local — only your audio and the snippets it needs to answer get sent to OpenAI.
  • Desktop only for now (needs mic + WebRTC).

Curious if anyone else would rather talk to their notes than type.
