Speak. It's already typed.
Dictate anywhere on your Mac. ATTYN Voice transcribes on-device, refines to your style, and pastes straight into the app you're in — privately, in the time it takes to let go of a key.
Breath to cursor,
one motion.
Record, transcribe, refine, paste. One orchestrated path — and every step happens on your Mac.
Speak
Hold a key and talk. ATTYN captures clean 16 kHz mono audio the moment you press.
Transcribe
A local speech model turns audio into text on your Mac — nothing leaves the device to hear you.
Refine
Optionally clean the transcript into your style. Local rules by default; cloud only if you opt in.
Paste
The text drops into whatever app is focused, then your clipboard is quietly restored.
An engine,
not a toy.
Backend-first and local by default — the pieces that make voice feel like a native part of the OS.
On-device ASR
Pluggable local transcription — WhisperKit, FluidAudio, whisper.cpp, or your own runner.
Refinement styles
Clean, concise, professional, or custom — names, numbers, and technical terms preserved.
Paste anywhere
Accessibility-backed insertion lands in the focused app and restores your clipboard.
Local history
A local SQLite log stores raw and refined text — searchable, never uploaded.
Bring your own model
Any transcription runtime, any OpenAI-compatible refine endpoint, keys in Keychain.
Three activation modes
Hold-to-talk, toggle, or double-press — pick per profile; muscle memory does the rest.
Your voice
is yours.
The private path is the easy path. Nothing is uploaded to work; the cloud is an option you reach for, not a tax you pay.
Audio is disposable
Recordings are deleted the moment they're transcribed, unless you ask to keep them.
Secrets in Keychain
API keys for optional cloud refinement live in the macOS Keychain, never a config file.
Local SQLite history
Your dictation log stays in Application Support on your Mac. Nothing syncs by default.
Cloud is opt-in
Local transcription is the source of truth. A cloud model only sees text you choose to refine.
