One shortcut. Your own voice. A little less distance between what you mean and what you write.
Put your cursor where you want your words. Hold left Option, or set a shortcut that feels right for you.
Say it naturally. Double-press the shortcut for hands-free dictation when a thought needs a little more room.
Release the key to finish—or press Escape in hands-free mode. Your text appears in the app you’re using.
Made for your everyday
Names you use. Phrases you repeat. Thoughts worth keeping. Make Talk feel like part of your day.

Your speech is processed on your device. Audio isn’t uploaded for transcription or saved to your history. Keep a local transcript when it’s useful, or turn history off.
Scribed Talk is a native macOS app for Apple silicon Macs running macOS 14 Sonoma or later. It needs microphone access to hear you and Accessibility permission to insert text into other apps.
Connect to sign in, verify your session each time Talk opens, and download the voice model once, about 500 MB. Once your session is verified, local dictation can continue offline for up to 24 hours in that running session. Your speech is processed on your Mac.
Audio is held in memory for transcription and isn’t saved to your history. Optional transcript history stays on your Mac; you can search, copy, export, or delete it. You can turn off new history and choose how many entries to keep. History is not encrypted by the app.
Yes. The default is left Option: hold to speak and release to insert your words. You can change it in Settings. Double-press for hands-free dictation, then press Escape to finish. Each recording is limited to five minutes.
