Push-to-talk dictation for macOS with fully on-device speech recognition
A compact neural speech model runs locally on Apple Silicon, so your audio never leaves your Mac and no internet connection is needed.
Hold a hotkey — including mouse buttons — and text appears at the cursor in whatever application is in front, with no integrations to configure.
Chain voice input with AI skills, conditions, text transforms, screenshots, clipboard capture, app switching and output nodes to automate recurring voice workflows.
Use Apple Intelligence, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini or a local Ollama model for post-processing, or run Spoke as pure dictation with no AI at all.
