Hold one key and speak. Your words appear instantly — in any app, any language. Then go further: reply to emails, search the web, or control your entire Mac with just your voice.
How it works
No setup wizards. No training period. No cloud dependency.
Just hold, speak, done.
One keypress. That's all it takes. Hold your shortcut, start talking. Let go when you're done.
Your words show up in real-time with perfect punctuation. 50+ languages. Right where your cursor is.
"Reply to this email." "Search for flights." "Click the submit button." Whisperflow understands and acts.
What it can do
From voice-to-text to AI email replies. From live web search to controlling your Mac by voice. All from a single shortcut.
Hold your hotkey and talk. Whisper AI transcribes in real-time — punctuation, context, 50+ languages. Release to type into any app. Sub-second latency.

Open an email, say "reply to this". Whisperflow reads the screen, understands context, and writes the perfect response. Works in Mail, Outlook, Gmail — any app. It sees what you see.
"Open Safari and go to GitHub." Whisperflow sees your screen, finds buttons, clicks, scrolls, and types for you. Your voice becomes a remote control for your entire Mac.
"What's the weather in Berlin?" — Whisperflow searches the web in real-time and gives you the answer. No tab-switching. No typing. Just ask.
"What's the weather in Berlin?"
Currently 8°C and cloudy in Berlin. Expected high of 12°C this afternoon with light rain around 3pm.

What people say
"I write 3x faster now. Hold the key, brain-dump my thoughts, and Whisperflow handles the rest. The AI rewrite to make it professional? Chef's kiss."
