Hold one hotkey, speak, release.
Voice Type is designed for live text entry on macOS. The goal is narrow on purpose: system-wide dictation into normal text fields, with on-device processing and a workflow that does not drag you into a separate transcript workspace.
It is not trying to be a meeting recorder, a transcript database, or an AI productivity casino. It is for people who already know dictation is part of how they work.
Why it exists
Built-in Dictation is a good starting point on Mac. But once dictation becomes something you use every day, workflow matters more than the fact that the feature exists. Voice Type was built for that second stage.
The focus is simple: faster start and stop, predictable text insertion, and an on-device workflow that stays out of the way while you write.
Public facts we can verify
- Available on the Mac App Store.
- Built for macOS on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.
- Dictation runs on-device.
- Sold as a 7-day trial followed by a one-time purchase.
Who builds it

What we believe
- Dictation should reduce friction, not create another cloud dependency.
- Privacy claims should be plain enough to verify.
- Software should be judged by how it behaves in normal work, not by demo-page adjectives.
