Speakmac

Private, on-device dictation for your whole Mac.

About this app

Speakmac is a native macOS dictation app that turns speech into text at your cursor in the apps you already use. Hold a hotkey, speak, and the finished transcript is inserted where you're writing.

  • Runs dictation on-device after a one-time model download
  • Works across Mail, Notes, browsers, documents, and AI tools
  • Supports quick hold-to-dictate and longer hands-free sessions
  • Keeps local history so past dictations can be recovered
  • Optional local Clean Up improves punctuation and formatting

Free to try. The full app is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Requires macOS 13+.
