Your voice, typed everywhere.

Wisper is a private voice dictation app. Press a hotkey, speak, and your words land in any app — transcribed on-device with Whisper, never in the cloud.

Built for fast, private dictation.

01 — WHY
/01

On-device transcription

Whisper runs locally. Your audio never leaves your machine — no accounts, no servers, no telemetry.

/02

Works in every app

Dictated text is typed straight into the focused field — your editor, browser, chat, anywhere.

/03

Press-hold or double-tap

Hold the hotkey to dictate a burst, or double-tap to toggle hands-free. The floating pill shows your levels.

/04

Custom vocabulary & snippets

Teach it your names and jargon, and expand spoken triggers into canned text automatically.

/05

Your language

Transcribe in 15+ languages, switchable on the fly from the pill or the tray.

/06

Meeting transcription

Record and transcribe meetings on-device — searchable notes you can copy and keep.

Free account

Sign in with Google to keep your history and meetings tied to your account. Your audio and transcripts stay on your device.

Three steps, no friction.
