For researchers

Write up your thinking while it’s fresh.

Dictate notes, drafts and emails on your Mac with on-device speech recognition. Hold Fn, speak, and the text appears wherever your cursor is.

macOS 14+ · Apple silicon

What you can do

  • Draft papers and proposals

    Talk through a section in Word or Pages before you polish it. Speechy leaves out filler words and handles the punctuation.

  • Note observations right away

    Dictate what you saw into Notes, Notion or a Numbers sheet instead of typing it up later from memory.

  • Spell technical terms right

    Add technical terms, names and acronyms to your dictionary, and set replacements for words Speechy keeps mishearing.

How it works

  1. 1

    Click where you want to write

    Open an email, a message, a document or your editor, and click where the words should go.

  2. 2

    Hold Fn and speak

    Say it the way you’d say it out loud. Speechy handles the punctuation and leaves out filler words.

  3. 3

    Let go. It’s written.

    Clean text appears right at your cursor. For longer thoughts, tap Fn once to start and again to stop.

Your audio stays on your Mac.

Unpublished work you dictate isn’t uploaded to be transcribed. Speech recognition and cleanup run on your Mac with on-device models, and your dictation history stays on your Mac.

Questions

Does my voice leave my Mac?

Speech recognition and cleanup run on your Mac with on-device models, so your recordings are not sent to Speechy to be transcribed. Speechy downloads its voice model once during setup, and after that dictation does not need an internet connection. Your dictation history stays on your Mac.

Can Speechy learn names and words I use?

Yes. Add names, product terms, and jargon to your dictionary so Speechy spells them right. You can also set replacements for words it keeps mishearing, and snippets that expand a short phrase into longer text you use often.

Which languages does Speechy support?

You can dictate in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Hindi, Japanese, and Chinese, or let Speechy detect the language for you. Some languages depend on which voice model you choose in Settings, and accuracy can vary between languages.

What do I need to run Speechy?

A Mac with Apple silicon running macOS 14 or later. Smart polish uses Apple Intelligence on Macs that support it, or an on-device model you can download instead. Speechy is Mac only for now, with no Windows or iPhone version yet.

Say it. Speechy writes it.

Hold Fn, speak, and clean text lands in any app on your Mac.
