Free open-source dictation that runs speech-to-text on your own machine
Press a configurable hotkey and your words are typed into whichever app has focus — chat clients, editors, browsers and terminals alike.
Run on-device models such as Whisper or NVIDIA Parakeet for full privacy, or switch to cloud transcription with your own provider API keys.
Spoken instructions like "clean this up" or "draft an email" let the model restructure and polish the raw transcript before it lands.
Names, jargon and technical terms are auto-learned from your corrections so recurring vocabulary stops being misheard.
Text to speech and voice AI across every device
Listen to books, PDFs, documents and web pages read aloud in a large library of lifelike AI voices.
Dictate instead of typing in almost any app, across Google Docs, Gmail, Slack, Outlook and more.
Turn documents or a short prompt into an AI podcast, and get instant summaries of what you are reading.
Use the web app, Chrome and Edge extensions, and native iOS, Android, Mac and Windows apps.
