Whispen
Dictate. Translate. Take notes. Ask anything. All by voice.
Whispen 2.0 — voice typing on Mac, iPhone & iPad with one account. Three things other dictation apps don't do: • Translate while you speak — say it in Chinese, paste in English. No copy-paste step. • Ask Whispen — hold ⌃⌥Space, ask anything. On-device AI + web search, with citations. • Voice Notes — speak → searchable rich-text notes.
Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm CS — solo maker behind Whispen.
I built Whispen because I'm bilingual and tired of the
copy-paste shuffle: dictate in Chinese → copy → ChatGPT →
"translate to English" → copy → paste into the message.
Every. Single. Time.
So I built a keyboard that does it inline. People liked it,
but they kept asking:
"Can it work on Mac?" → I built the Mac app (signed,
notarized, Sparkle auto-updates).
"Can I ask it things, not just dictate?" → Ask Whispen
(⌃⌥Space). Uses Apple Intelligence on-device when
available, falls back to cloud. Web search via Brave
with citations.
"Where do my dictations go?" → Voice Notes — Notion-
style, fully searchable, RTF.
"中文/日本語/Deutsch UI?" → 14 languages.
What's new since the last launch:
• Mac app from scratch
• Translate + Ask Whispen + Notes (all new)
• 1,000 chars/week free for signed-in users (was Pro-only)
• Two-layer polish: regex baseline (offline, instant) +
AI semantic layer — works for everyone, not just Pro
• Cross-device sync, Sparkle auto-updates
Free to try, no credit card. Would love feedback —
especially from bilingual folks or mixed-language teams.
