Keep recording status in the MacBook notch, a floating island, or the bottom of the screen. Start and stop with a shortcut while staying in your current app.
Both apps use context. Openbroca's optional Screen Context uses visible terms as spelling hints. Wispr Flow documents active-app and nearby-text context, visible names, and requests that may include screenshots. Review the permissions and data settings for each app.
