Ephemeris is a desktop workspace for missions. A mission is a goal with to-dos, references and progress. Voice notes, meetings and the apps you already use show up in an Inbox as proposed steps, and you file them or let them go.
Ask Ephemeris goes through the inbox, writes status updates and hands bigger coding work to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. It connects to Linear, Notion, Slack, GitHub and other MCP servers.
I wanted dictation that gives me the text I meant to type, not a raw transcript I have to clean up after. You hold a key, or tap the pill on your phone, talk, and clean text lands wherever your cursor is. It strips out fillers and false starts, follows spoken commands, and writes numbers the way a person would type them.
Hold the shortcut to talk and let go to insert, or tap for hands-free and tap again to stop. You can also highlight some text, hold a key, and just say what to change.
A verifier checks that every result keeps your words and numbers in the same order, so it doesn't rewrite what you actually said. Use its own models when you're signed in, which also syncs your dictionary, snippets and style across devices, or bring your own: OpenAI, Groq, Deepgram, ElevenLabs or a local whisper server. Without an account, everything stays on the device.
The dictation is out as public releases on Windows, Linux, macOS (experimental) and Android 8.0+. Stopping a 25-minute dictation takes about 0.1–0.2 s of its own work.
Numbers are self-measured.
The desktop app itself is still pre-release, and so far only a Linux build exists. You can talk to it from your phone. All-day recording and recall stay on the desktop. Cloud sync isn't live yet.
