Keep up with your conversations
After installation, open the app and sign in. Enable push notifications in Preferences if you want alerts. On iPhone and iPad, push requires a Home Screen web app and iOS or iPadOS 16.4 or later.
Global Hotkey Dictation:Hold a system-wide hotkey, speak, and release to paste recognized text directly at the cursor in the active window.
Default Ctrl + Win Binding: The push-to-talk combination is set out of the box but can be reassigned to any preferred key combination.
Configurable Injection Methods: Multiple text-injection approaches are available to keep compatibility high across different Windows applications.
Offline Speech Recognition Engine:All voice processing happens locally on the PC using a downloaded recognition model, so no audio is uploaded anywhere.
One-Time Model Download: A roughly 500 MB download installs the recognizer once, after which the software runs without internet access.
No Cloud Dependency: Dictation and transcription both continue to function during outages or on networks without internet.
Dictation Widget Overlay:A small on-screen widget appears at the bottom of the display while dictating, showing live recognition status.
Visual Feedback: Users can confirm the hotkey is active and speech is being captured before releasing the keys.
Prose, Code, and Email Presets:Switch between formatting modes depending on the type of content being dictated.
Prose Mode: Applies natural punctuation and paragraph breaks suited for letters, articles, and general writing.
Code Mode: Avoids automatic formatting and auto-correction behavior that would otherwise break dictated source code or command syntax.
Email Mode: Tunes punctuation and sentence structure for the shorter, conversational tone typical of email correspondence.
Personal Dictionary and Snippets:Store frequently used terms, product names, and phrases so the recognizer applies them correctly every time.
Custom Vocabulary Entries: Add technical terms or brand names that generic recognition engines commonly misinterpret.
Text Expansion Snippets: Say a short phrase such as “my address” and have it automatically expanded into a longer stored block of text.
Batch Audio and Video Transcription:Convert entire recordings into text files using the Files tab instead of transcribing manually by listening.
Drag-and-Drop File Loading: Add MP3, MP4, WAV, M4A, FLAC, OGG, MOV, and MKV files by dragging them into the application window.
Unlimited Daily Processing: There are no daily word caps or per-minute charges once the file transcription runs on your own PC.
Clipboard and Output Folder Access: Extracted text can be copied directly to the clipboard or retrieved as a saved file from the output folder.
Multi-Language Support:Dictate and transcribe in a wide range of spoken languages while using the interface in your preferred language.
25+ Default Speech Languages: A broad set of speech recognition languages is included from installation.
100+ Downloadable Languages: An alternative model expands language coverage well beyond the default set.
20+ Interface Languages: The application menus and settings can be displayed in more than 20 languages.
