…rce ones are listed Wispr Flow was named as the way to dictate, because it is what the author started with. The doc (renamed docs/wispr.md to docs/dictation.md) now says that any app that pastes works, and lists OpenWhispr (MIT, macOS, Windows, Linux, runs on the computer), VoiceNative (the author's own, macOS, runs on the computer) and the system's own dictation next to Wispr Flow, with where each runs and what it costs. The README, the guide, the site and the architecture note say "a dictation app". Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

What
Wispr Flow was the only dictation app named. It is what the author started with and is a fine start, but it is closed source, in the cloud, and not on Linux. Lucid only takes pasted text, so any dictation app works.
docs/wispr.mdbecomesdocs/dictation.md: a table of Wispr Flow, OpenWhispr (MIT, macOS/Windows/Linux, local models), VoiceNative (the author's own, macOS, local) and the system's own dictation (where each runs, cost, whether speech stays on the computer), the two things to know (pastes are sent on their own, key conflicts), and the same ten-minute check-list.Facts about OpenWhispr and VoiceNative were read from their GitHub pages (licence, platforms, how they paste). Lucid is tested with a simulated paste, which is what they do; a real voice check is still the owner's.
