Voice dictation that works everywhere on your Mac. Hold a key, speak, and watch your words appear. Transcribed privately on your Mac, then tidied up by AI.
Built for developers, writers, and anyone who thinks faster than they type.
Dictate into any app — Slack, VS Code, email, browser, terminal. If you can type there, you can talk there.
Your voice is transcribed on your Mac — audio never leaves it. AI cleanup sends only the text, and we don't keep it. Turn it off any time.
Removes filler words, fixes punctuation, and applies spoken corrections like “no, make it eight” — so what lands is ready to send.
OpenAI's Whisper large-v3-turbo model runs right on your Mac, tuned for English dictation. No upload, no waiting.
Add the names and jargon you use — SwiftUI, Kubernetes, your clients' names — and Stop Typing spells them right.
Hold Fn (the Globe key) to talk and release to insert — or pick your own shortcut.
Install Stop Typing from a single DMG file. Drag to Applications and launch.
Grant microphone and accessibility access, choose your hotkey, and you're ready in a minute.
Hold your hotkey anywhere, speak naturally, and watch your words appear.

Your speech is turned into text on your Mac. Audio is never uploaded or stored. If AI cleanup is on, only the text is sent securely to our AI provider to tidy it up, and we don't keep it. You can turn AI cleanup off in Settings.
