VoiceTypr is an offline, AI-powered voice-to-text tool available for both Windows and macOS that lets you dictate anywhere you can type by simply holding or toggling a hotkey, with automatic transcription directly into applications such as chat editors, code editors, email fields, and text boxes. It supports over 100 languages, offers multiple transcription-model choices (focusing on accuracy or speed), includes smart formatting modes for everything from casual chat to formal documents, and maintains a searchable history of transcriptions that you can export or copy.

You simply install the app, download your preferred model, set a global hotkey, then speak and ship, whether you’re writing code prompts, emails, notes, or messages. Additional features include drag-and-drop transcription of MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, or MOV files, global hotkey activation, and hardware hardware-accelerated performance.
