of speech.

Features

Designed to disappear into your work.

One hotkey. No menu bar dance. No copy-paste shuffle. Your words land where your cursor is.

One key, anywhere

Hold your dictation key in any app. Speak. Release. Your words appear where the cursor is — no window, no detour.

AI cleanup

Polishes raw transcripts — fixes grammar, resolves self-corrections, and matches the tone of the app you're writing in.

Works in every app

Slack, VSCode, Notion, Gmail, your terminal. If you can type there, FlowVoice can write there.

Private by default

The mic only opens while you hold the key. Never the background, never on standby — quiet between sentences.

Speaks your language

Accurate dictation across 90+ languages, with mixed-language sentences handled gracefully.

Fast and lean

Built for minimal latency — by the time you've moved your hand back to the keyboard, the text is already there.

How it works

Three motions. That's the app.

No menus, no setup after install. Hold, speak, release — and keep working.

Hold the key.

Press and hold your dictation hotkey — anywhere on your machine. The app you're in doesn't need to know FlowVoice exists.

Speak naturally.

Talk like you would to a colleague. Pause. Self-correct. Change your mind mid-sentence — cleanup will catch it.

Hello there

Release.

Clean, formatted text appears at your cursor. Code in code apps, prose in writing apps, casual in chat — it adapts.

FAQ

Getting started.

macOS 11 (Big Sur) and up, Windows 10 and 11. One download per platform — no separate Apple Silicon and Intel builds to pick between.

No. Download, grant a couple of permissions on first launch, you're set.

On macOS, two things: Microphone (so it can hear you) and Accessibility (so it can notice the hotkey and type at your cursor). macOS pops a dialog for the mic; for Accessibility you'll flip a toggle in System Settings → Privacy & Security. Windows is simpler — just allow the microphone. The onboarding screen walks you through it.

Click into any text box — an email, a Slack message, a Google Doc, the address bar, wherever you'd normally type. Hold the dictation key, talk the way you would to a colleague, release. The cleaned-up text appears where your cursor was.

Keep talking. "Wait, scratch that" or "actually, the second option" — the cleanup pass quietly resolves those self-corrections so the final text reads cleanly. You can turn cleanup off in Settings if you'd rather see the raw transcript.

No. The microphone only opens while you're physically holding the hotkey. The moment you let go, it stops. When it's recording you'll see a small bar at the bottom of your screen with a live waveform — that's your "I am being heard" signal.

Yes — Settings → Dictation hotkey. Click the field, then press whichever key you'd like to use. You can also pick between hold-to-talk (held = recording) and toggle (press once to start, again to stop).

Ready to flow.

No account. The download is small, the install is fast.
