Download the .dmg
  1. Open the .dmg and drag PromptStream into Applications.
  2. The app is not yet notarized by Apple, so the first launch is blocked. Right-click the app and choose Open, then confirm — you only do this once.
  3. Grant Microphone access when asked, so it can hear you.
  4. Grant Accessibility in System Settings → Privacy & Security. This is what lets the hotkey work everywhere and the text paste itself.
  5. Sign in with your account, hold Right ⌘, and speak.

Linux

AppImage · x86-64 · any distro

Download the AppImage
  1. Make it executable: chmod +x PromptStream-0.1.1.AppImage
  2. Give yourself read access to keyboard events — the global hotkey is read from evdev, because Wayland gives no app another way to see it:
    sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/70-promptstream-input.rules >/dev/null <<'EOF'
    SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="event*", ENV{ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD}=="1", TAG+="uaccess"
    EOF
    sudo udevadm control --reload
    sudo udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=input
  3. Log out and back in so the new access applies.
  4. Launch the AppImage, sign in, hold Right Super, and speak.

Windows

Not yet. The hotkey and paste layers are written per-platform and Windows has not been built. It is on the list.
