Superwhisper

The speech to text app that actually gets it right

Superwhisper is voice typing for macOS, Windows, and iOS. Talk into your mic and text appears wherever your cursor is. The AI figures out context, so an email sounds like an email and a code prompt stays technical.

More than a talk to text app

Most speech to text apps give you a wall of words. You still have to go back and fix punctuation, break it into paragraphs, and clean up the grammar. It saves time on the typing part but adds it right back in editing.

Superwhisper works differently. It watches what app you're in and adjusts the output to fit. Writing an email? The text gets structured like a proper message. Talking to a coding assistant? It keeps things precise and technical. Slack messages stay short and casual. You don't configure any of this. The AI reads your screen and figures it out.

AI-enhanced accuracy
Goes beyond raw transcription. Super Mode reads your screen and adjusts formatting, grammar, and tone based on what you're doing.
Offline and private
On-device AI models mean your audio never leaves your computer. No internet required. Your voice data stays yours.
100+ languages
Automatic language detection across 100+ languages. Dictate in one language and have it translated to another on the fly.
Works in any app
System-wide voice typing. Text gets placed wherever your cursor is, whether that's a browser, email client, code editor, or chat app.

How it works

  1. Press your shortcut. A global hotkey or push-to-talk trigger, works from any app on your system.
  2. Just talk. Speak naturally. No need to say "comma" or "new paragraph." The AI handles punctuation and formatting.
  3. Text appears where your cursor is. Superwhisper types the result directly into whatever app you're using, already cleaned up and formatted.

Who uses it

Developers talk to AI coding tools with it. Andrej Karpathy coined the term "vibe coding" while using Superwhisper with Cursor, and the workflow has caught on with other builders since.

Writers and content creators use it to get first drafts out of their heads and onto the screen faster than typing allows. People dealing with RSI or repetitive strain find it makes a real difference to their workday.

Anyone who sends a lot of emails or messages throughout the day tends to stick with it once they try it. It's also useful if you work across multiple languages, since you can dictate in one and have Superwhisper translate to another automatically.

"There's a new kind of coding I call 'vibe coding'... I just talk to Composer with @superwhisperapp so I barely even touch the keyboard."

— Andrej Karpathy, Founder of Eureka Labs

"Tools I couldn't live without: @Superhuman, @superwhisperapp, @reflectnotes"

— Andrew Wilkinson, CEO of Tiny

Frequently asked questions

What is a speech to text app?

A speech to text app converts your spoken words into written text. Basic ones just transcribe. Superwhisper goes further by using AI to clean up grammar, add punctuation, and format the output based on where you're typing.

Does Superwhisper work offline?

Yes. Superwhisper includes on-device AI models that run entirely on your computer. Your audio is never sent to a server. This is good for privacy and it also means the app works on planes, in cafes with bad wifi, or anywhere else you happen to be.

How accurate is the voice to text?

Very. The AI models handle accents, background noise, and natural speech patterns well. Super Mode also fixes filler words and cleans up grammar, so the output is often better than what you'd type on a first pass.

What platforms is Superwhisper available on?

macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows 10 and 11, and iOS. One Pro license covers all your devices.

Can I use it for voice typing in any language?

Superwhisper supports 100+ languages with automatic detection. You can speak in one language and have the text come out in another. You don't need to switch modes or tell it which language you're about to use.

Is there a free version of Superwhisper?

There's a free tier that lasts forever. Pro starts at $8/month and comes with a 30-day refund guarantee if it's not for you.
