Speechcap
Mac dictation on steroids π ποΈ . Local or cloud, your call
Speechcap is an AI-powered push-to-talk dictation app for Mac that turns your voice into polished text in seconds. Choose between cloud-based processing or fully local transcription and AI cleanup with Pro, where your voice never leaves your device. Supports 89 languages, with a free tier and Pro plans starting at just $3/month.
Speechcap is privacy focused push-to-talk dictation for Mac: hold a key β Whisper transcribes β AI cleans up the filler and formatting β text lands wherever your cursor is. No window to open, no paste step.
It works two ways:
Cloud (default, includes the free tier): zero setup, transcribes instantly. Your audio is transient through the provider and never stored.
Fully on-device (Pro): download Whisper + IBM Granite 4 Micro and both transcription and cleanup run locally. Plane, firewall, no wifi β your voice never leaves the Mac.
Every other dictation tool I tried still sends cleanup to a cloud. That was the itch I wanted to scratch.
A few more things:
2,500 words/week free, no credit card.
89 languages, with translation on Pro.
PPP pricing β ~$3 in some regions, more in others. Not one US sticker for the whole world.
Honest tradeoffs:
Mac only today (Windows in beta).
Small team, newer than the big names. (But we ship fairly fast π)
Would genuinely love your feedback β AMA, I'll be here all day. What would make this a daily driver for you?
Offline first sounds really promising to me, this can turn out to be better than @Wispr Flow then! The user experience is very smooth
I used this product, and I have to say that the dictation is flawless, and so is the seamless switch between online and offline modes.
Excellent product! I use it regularly in my day-to-day work and have had a great experience with it. One feature I especially value is the ability to switch seamlessly between online and offline modes whenever needed. ππ
