WhisperShortcut features

A macOS menu bar app for dictation, voice-to-AI, and an optional in-app chat experience. You bring your own Google API key (BYOK) for cloud features; no backend and no accounts—see the Privacy Policy for what stays on your Mac.

Speech-to-Text (macOS dictation)

Transcribe in real time with Google Gemini in the cloud or 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.

AI chat: Gemini, Grok, and optional Google tools

Use an in-app chat with Gemini or Grok. If you sign in, WhisperShortcut can use Google Calendar, Tasks, and Gmail (read-only) 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.
