Field Theory
Local transcription and screenshot capture for AI coding prompts
Overview
Field Theory is a macOS app for developers that combines local voice transcription, stackable screenshots, and portable commands to capture context for AI coding tools. Transcribe voice locally without internet, draw on screenshots that auto-stack into paste-ready output, and use portable markdown commands that work across Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more. Features a priority mic mode that prevents Bluetooth from hijacking your microphone selection, voice commands during transcription, and an auto-improve feature that removes filler and tightens phrasing for polished prompts.
