Transcribe meeting recordings on your device

The first is file transcription. Record your Zoom call, your Teams standup, whatever it is. When the meeting is over, drag the recording into Superwhisper. The AI processes it locally on your machine and gives you a full transcript. No cloud upload, no waiting for someone else's servers.

The second is dictation. After a call, hit your keyboard shortcut and talk through what happened. "Marketing wants the landing page done by Friday, Jake is handling the API integration, we need to follow up with the design team next week." Super Mode formats that into clean notes you can paste into Notion, Slack, or wherever you keep track of things.

Some people use both. Transcribe the full recording for the record, then dictate a quick summary with action items for the team.

Superwhisper is a good fit if you record meetings and want to transcribe them afterward on your own machine. It handles long recordings in most audio and video formats, and nothing gets uploaded. If your meetings involve sensitive topics or your company has strict data policies, that matters.

It also works well if you just want to quickly dictate a summary after a call. Instead of typing up notes, you talk through the key points and Super Mode cleans it up into something readable. For a lot of people that's faster and more practical than transcribing a full hour-long recording.

Where it's not the right tool: if you need a bot that joins your Zoom call, transcribes in real time, and labels who said what. That's what Otter.ai and similar services do. Superwhisper doesn't sit in on meetings. It works with recordings after the fact, or it lets you dictate your own notes.
