Offline dictation for Mac that drops finished text at your cursor
Listening, punctuation, paragraph breaks and cleanup all run on your Mac with no cloud step, so dictation works offline and no audio leaves the machine.
Dictato punctuates, capitalises and structures your speech, drops filler words, and formats spoken numbers, dates, times and amounts before the text appears in any app.
Choose between a speed-tuned Apple Silicon engine, a 99-language engine, a lighter multilingual option, or Apple's own model — switchable in one click without restarting your flow.
Assign a different tone, language and engine to each application or website, and let Dictato switch automatically when you change window — including Safari, Chrome and Arc rules.
A general-purpose AI agent that executes tasks, not just answers them
Give the agent a goal and it plans the steps, chooses tools, and works through the task in a cloud environment without constant supervision.
Produces finished artifacts such as slide decks, functional websites, small games, and formatted documents rather than raw text.
Runs broad, multi-source investigations and compiles the findings into a structured report.
Generates images, video, and music as part of a larger task or as standalone outputs.
Provides powerful reasoning agents and deep research, but lacks Manus's specialized continuous cloud workspace execution.
