Landing Page Brief

Domain: blitztext.de

Goal: a small, honest landing page for an experimental open-source Linux dictation preview.

Hero

Headline:

Blitztext App Linux

Subline:

Speak into any focused Linux text field. Get text, cleaner writing, or live streaming transcripts.

Body:

An experimental open-source Linux/X11 dictation app inspired by the original macOS Blitztext workflow. Not finished, not hosted, not plug-and-play. Built to learn from, fork, and improve.

Primary CTA:

View on GitHub

Secondary CTA:

Read setup guide

Small line:

Local faster-whisper, optional Riva/NIM realtime STT, optional OpenAI-compatible rewriting. No hosted Blitztext backend.

Sections

  1. What it does

    • Dictate into the focused app
    • Improve or rewrite rough speech
    • Calm down messages
    • Add emojis
    • Stream live STT through Riva/NIM

  2. How it works

    • Install the Linux app or run from source
    • Configure a local or remote STT engine
    • Press a hotkey and speak
    • Blitztext types into the focused X11 window

  3. Open-source preview

    • Linux/X11 first
    • MIT License
    • inspired by cmagnussen/blitztext-app
    • experimental
    • no warranty
    • no hosted backend

  4. Privacy, plainly

    • local batch STT can stay on device
    • realtime STT goes to the Riva/NIM endpoint you configure
    • rewriting goes to the OpenAI-compatible endpoint you configure
    • no public Blitztext backend
    • do your own review before sensitive use

  5. Roadmap

    • clearer setup
    • current Linux screenshots
    • Wayland support exploration
    • better streaming diagnostics
    • basic tests and release checks

Do Not Promise

  • production readiness
  • hosted service
  • free usage without API or infrastructure costs
  • no data leaves the device by default
  • guaranteed support
  • macOS support in the Linux app
  • bundled STT models
  • local rewriting unless the user configures a local LLM endpoint

Visual Direction

Use real Linux screenshots or a short demo GIF: GTK control panel, Settings > Engines, Benchmark, and About. Keep the page calm, sparse, and honest. Avoid fake metrics, oversized SaaS claims, and corporate origin story.
