How it works

Three steps. Every time.

  1. 1

    Record

    Press and hold your hotkey while speaking, then release — or tap once to start, tap again to stop.

  2. 2

    Transcribe

    Easy Dictation runs Whisper locally on your Mac. Your chosen model, your hardware, nothing sent anywhere.

  3. 3

    Paste

    Your words appear instantly in whatever app you were using. Your previous clipboard is restored automatically.
