nice, are you using webrtc aec3 or sth custom?

to your question i did a thorough benchmarking (hence late reply) used 18gb m3 pro macpro

full on-device with gemma 4 e2b is ~1.5s since last utterance. vad silence th is set to 600ms

now, when I connect local hermes agent that uses deepseek v4 flash via their api, latency jumps to 3.5s (this of course includes 600s of silence to even trigger pipeline)

btw, suggestions are throttled to one every 20s by default, it's configurable from the app

afaik cluely is waaaaay over 5s, but it makes sense because their users need lots of ai reasoning to answer interview qs :D different target audience then stagewhisper

I've setup one on Hetzner. I got it a dedicated email account (via agentmail.to). Installed couple of skills, last30days and context-mode being the most useful so far (https://github.com/mvanhorn/last30days-skill and https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode).

The biggest unlock was wiring it up to my agency's whatsapp group - it's now basically a multiplayer chatgpt. Not a "personal" assistant, but more of agency's assistant. It can send ad hoc mails to our clients when asked, but also tells jokes when atmosphere is tense.

Each day it checks it's own inbox and once a week it sends me a kind of social listening report, but those are kind of workflows easily reproducible elsewhere.

I'm actually so bullish on the potential of openclaw kind of software I've built a desktop app for it, stagewhisper.io.

It's like a Granola for your OpenClaw. It listens to your system audio, records your screen (all data stays on your computer) and asks your assistant for suggestions or creates a tasks. Example: client asks for referrals during a call, StageWhisper.io picks it up and asks OpenClaw to send email with case studies.

It's absurdly fun to use, mainly because the delay between when the task pops up and the work starts is approaching zero.

I thought I hack around. App consists of:

- users write Markdown, LLM turns it into interactive MDX post

- MDX with generated widgets is rendered in e2b sandbox

- generation & publishing (sanitization, etc) pipelines run on Inngest (their docs won me over Temporal)

Would it make sense to go mobile first and focus on ‘interactive micro-blogging’ (Twitter with widgets)?

I’m building a publishing stack for “vibe blogging”, think Bolt.new x Substack. It consists of:

Authoring - users write Markdown, LLM turns it into interactive MDX post

Sandboxing - MDX with generated widgets is rendered in e2b sandbox

Pipelines - generation & publishing (sanitization, etc) pipelines run on Inngest (their docs won me over Temporal)

Distribution - via subdomain/paid custom domain. Stripped version of the post for repurpose as a newsletter (Inngest Workflows)

I’d love feedback on:

1. Does it make sense to go mobile first and focus on ‘interactive micro-blogging’ (Twitter with widgets)?

2. I consider launching in price sensitive, but creator-rich markets like India, Brazil and Mexico to build momentum. Anybody has experience with that?

All thoughts welcome!

Demo is nearly ready, I’ll launch it on Show HN and share it with waitlist subscribers soon.
