Unspoken – Offline voice-to-text for macOS that never leaves your machine
I built Unspoken because I was mass-sending voice messages instead of writing — and realized my voice was already writing better than my fingers ever could.
The problem? Every dictation tool I tried shipped my audio to someone else's server.
What it does: Press a shortcut, speak, get formatted text. System-wide, works in any app.
Your audio never touches a network interface. No account, no cloud, no telemetry.
Technical details:
• Runs entirely on-device (M1/M2/M3/M4, macOS 14+) • ~97% accuracy with AI post-processing for filler removal, punctuation, and grammar • 100+ languages with auto-detection • Custom dictionary for domain-specific terms • AES-256 encrypted local history (optional) • ~170 WPM effective speed vs ~40 WPM typing What it's not: It's not a meeting transcriber or an AI assistant. It replaces your keyboard for text input. Think "better typing" not "better Siri."
What do you think about it? Thanks guys
