How it works

Three keystrokes. That's it.

No setup, no accounts, no learning curve.

01

Hold your hotkey

Press Ctrl or any key you choose. A frosted-glass pill appears at the edge of your screen.

02

Speak naturally

Whisper runs on your GPU or CPU. Audio is processed locally and never saved to disk.

03

Release to paste

Transcription is typed into whatever app has focus. Email, Slack, code editors, anywhere.
