WhisperShortcut features
A macOS menu bar app for dictation, voice-to-AI, and an optional in-app chat experience. You bring your own provider API keys (BYOK) for cloud features; no backend and no WhisperShortcut account—see the Privacy Policy for what stays on your Mac.
Speech-to-Text (macOS dictation)
Transcribe in real time with Google Gemini, GPT, or Grok in the cloud, use a self-hosted OpenAI-compatible endpoint, or transcribe offline with Whisper when you want to keep audio on your machine. Tuned for everyday dictation, notes, and messages.
Speech-to-Prompt
Speak instructions to edit or improve text using AI—handy for rewriting, summarizing, or reformatting without typing. Works with the clipboard and your chosen model.
Read Aloud
Listen to clipboard text or chat replies with Gemini, GPT, or Grok text-to-speech voices—useful for proofreading, accessibility, or hands-free review. Pick a voice per provider, adjust playback speed, and optionally let AI rewrite text for more natural spoken output. Trigger from the menu bar or under assistant messages in chat.
AI chat: Gemini, GPT, Grok, and optional tools
Use an in-app chat with Gemini, GPT, or Grok. Paste images into the composer or use /screenshot to attach screen captures to your next message. If you connect accounts, WhisperShortcut can use Google Calendar, Tasks, Gmail (read-only), and Trello in supported flows, only when you ask. Learn more in Terms and Privacy.
Live meeting transcription
Record with chunked, near-real-time transcription in the meeting flow. Meeting transcripts are stored locally; see the Privacy Policy for how local files and improvement features work.
