Free, with no fine print
Unlimited dictation and the full on-device model catalog — no word caps, no trial clock, no subscription. Nothing that is free today ever moves behind the paywall.
use case · students
Talk your way through the semester.
Essays, lab reports, notes, flashcards, questions for an AI — a student's week is thousands of typed words. Speak them instead: press a shortcut and they land wherever your cursor is, in Docs, Word, your flashcard app or a chat.
explain it — that's the draft
The oldest study trick still works: explain the topic in your own words. Do it out loud with Ctrl ` and the explanation is typed as you go — into notes, a summary, the essay outline. What you'd mumble at the wall becomes material you can edit. And if it comes out rambly, a voice mode can tidy it before it lands — free on the built-in local model or your own Ollama server, and Pro can route it through your own OpenAI or Claude account.
stuck? ask about the thing itself
A diagram in the lecture slides, one step of a worked solution, a paragraph in a paper — when the question is about something you can see, send the thing, not a description of it.

Drag over the diagram or the step that lost you — recording starts as you drag.

Paste it to your AI
ChatGPT, Claude or wherever you study — the marked-up screenshot and your spoken question arrive together.
made for a student budget
Works where Wi-Fi doesn't
After a one-time model download, transcription runs entirely on your laptop — library basement, train, a hall with overloaded Wi-Fi.
Your languages
The catalog covers the majority of languages across Europe, Asia and the Americas — speak whichever your course is in, and it's auto-detected.
Private by default
Your speech becomes text on your device — audio is never uploaded, and the app tracks nothing about you.
Windows 10/11 today — macOS and Linux builds are on the way. Also see dictating to ChatGPT and writing by voice.
