Local Dictation for Mac

Local Dictation turns your voice into text on your Mac with the speech model built into the app. Hold a key, talk and let go, and your words appear in whatever app you are using. Speech recognition runs entirely on the Mac, so it works offline and nothing you say is uploaded.

It handles more than 90 languages, keeps a searchable history of every dictation and keeps clipboards for each topic. Settings let you choose the hold key and the language, and turn on Apple Intelligence clean-up.
