🧠 About Astra

Astra is my core AI assistant platform — a voice-first, privacy-focused AI that runs locally or in the cloud. It's the launchpad for every app I'm building.

Key capabilities:

• 🎙️ Voice dictation & transcription (local Whisper / cloud Deepgram)
• • 🤖 Local LLM support via Ollama (fully private)
  • • 🌐 Cross-platform: Mac, iOS, Windows (coming)

    • • 🔌 Modular — easy to extend with new skills and integrations

      • • 📖 MIT licensed — open source forever
