I'm not affiliated in any way. You might be interested in the "Futo Keyboard" and voice input apps - they run completely offline and respect your privacy.
The source code is open and it does a good job at punctuation without you needing to prompt it by saying, "comma," or, "question mark," unlike other voice input apps such as Google's gboard.
I know and like Futo, very interesting project. Unfortunately multilang models are not great in my case. Still not bad for an offline tool, but far from "forget it's there, just use it" vibe I had with Dragon.
Funny thing is that I may have missgonfigured something in futo, because my typing corrections are phonetical :) so I type something in Polish and get autocorrect in English composed of different letters, but kind of similar sounding word.
