"I tried Voibe because I wanted privacy focussed Dictation on my Mac. Stayed because it is stupidly fast. Now I catch myself talking to my laptop for everything and honestly do not know how I worked without it."
The keyboard is the bottleneck
Typing is slower than thinking. We stick to keyboards simply because we are used to them. Though dictation has been around for years, it was unreliable, and recent tools required sending your voice to the cloud. Mac's built-in dictation works, but it's laggy and limited. It's not anyone's fault. Accuracy, privacy and speed never existed together.
With Voibe, this all changes.
Hold. Speak. Release
Voibe is a AI voice dictation app that runs quietly in the background, waiting for you to speak. It works in every Mac app - from Cursor and ChatGPT to Slack and Notion. Just hold, speak, and release.
Hold the Fn key
Click into the editor, press and hold the Fn key (or your chosen hotkey).
Speak
Start speaking at your natural pace.
Release to insert
Once you're done, release the Fn key and your words appear instantly in the editor.
Where Voibe fits in your day
Designed for professionals who live in text-heavy workflows and need a tool that prioritizes speed, privacy, and flow.
Writing & Content
Stop staring at a blank cursor. Whether you are outlining a video script, drafting a newsletter, or writing a story, speaking lets you capture your first draft in flow.
Email & Messaging
Clear your inbox at 3x the speed. Dictate detailed feedback, complex replies, and team updates instantly. It is faster than typing and clearer than a short, vague message.
Voice Dictation for AI Tools
Lazy prompts get lazy answers. Voice dictation for ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity lets you provide rich context and nuanced instructions in seconds. Better prompts mean better AI output on the first try.
Coding & Development
Document logic while it's fresh. Voice dictation for developers working in Cursor, VS Code, and Linear. Voibe handles technical terms, resolving file names automagically so you can focus on building, not typing.
"Voibe works in any app where you can place a cursor."
Private, Offline Dictation Built for Mac
Cloud dictation is slow and leaky. Voibe runs entirely on your Mac to deliver server-grade accuracy with zero latency.
What happens on your Mac, stays on your Mac.
We believe your audio should be as private as your thoughts. Voibe is a secure dictation app that processes everything locally on your machine. The moment transcription is done, the audio data is discarded. No uploads. No logs. No training on your data.
- ✓ Zero data leaves your Mac
- ✓ Safe for NDAs and sensitive work
- ✓ No third-party data retention
Zero Latency. Zero Waiting.
Physics is simple: Sending audio to the cloud and waiting for a response takes time. Voibe eliminates that lag entirely. By running quantized models directly on your Apple Silicon chip, we achieve near real-time speeds. You speak, and the text is there instantly, so you never lose your train of thought.
- ✓ Zero network latency
- ✓ Optimized for Apple Silicon
- ✓ Consistent performance always
No Internet? No Problem.
Your workflow shouldn't break just because the Wi-Fi did. Whether you are on a plane, in a train tunnel, or at a coffee shop with spotty internet, Voibe works perfectly. Because the entire intelligence engine lives in your Applications folder, you have 100% uptime. You are the server.
- ✓ Plane & Travel ready
- ✓ No downtime during outages
- ✓ Always available
Lower Your AI Carbon Footprint
Cloud-based AI requires massive, power-hungry data centers to process every word you say. Voibe shifts the work to your Mac’s own hardware - the most energy efficient way to handle transcription. By running fully on-device, you eliminate the carbon footprint of remote GPU clusters and global data transmission. It is professional-grade dictation without the hidden environmental cost.
- ✓ Zero data center energy waste
- ✓ Environment friendly dictation
- ✓ Sustainable, local first workflow

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my audio really private?
Yes. Unlike cloud tools, Voibe processes everything locally on your Mac. Your audio is transcribed in your device's RAM and never uploaded, stored, or used to train our models.
How is Voibe different from Mac's built-in dictation?
Apple Dictation is prone to accuracy errors and aggressive auto-punctuation, often forcing you to spend more time cleaning up mistakes than you saved by talking. Voibe uses latest Whisper models to get the words, jargon, and formatting right the first time, eliminating the need for heavy re-editing. It's purpose built as a replacement for Keyboard
How accurate is the transcription?
Voibe uses OpenAI's latest Whisper models, optimized for Apple Silicon for fast, accurate transcription. It handles natural speech, accents, and technical jargon without stumbling.
Is Voibe better than cloud-based dictation apps?
Voibe runs entirely on your Mac, so it's faster (no network latency), more private (no cloud uploads), and works offline. Cloud-based dictation apps send your audio to remote servers, which is slower and raises privacy concerns.
Will local AI drain my battery?
Voibe is optimized for Apple's GPU'. It only activates while you are holding the Fn key. In everyday use, the impact is negligible.
Is Voibe always listening?
No. Voibe only listens when you hold the Fn key and speak. When you release the key, Voibe stops listening and types what you said.
Does Voibe work offline without internet?
100%. You can use Voibe on a plane, in train tunnels, or anywhere without an internet connection. You are the server.
Is Voibe safe for confidential work and client communications?
Absolutely. Voibe is a secure dictation app designed for sensitive work. Everything processes locally on your Mac with zero cloud uploads. Lawyers, consultants, and professionals use Voibe for confidential client work, privileged communications, and NDA-protected projects because no audio ever leaves their device.
What Macs are supported?
Voibe is built for Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, M4 chips) running macOS 13 (Ventura) or later. Intel Macs are not supported.
Can I use Voibe with Cursor, VS Code, and other developer tools?
Yes! Voibe works in every Mac app including Cursor, VS Code, Linear, Jira, and any other development tool. It's a system-wide voice dictation app that inserts text wherever your cursor is.
Can I change the hotkey?
Yes. You can change the hotkey anytime from the Voibe dashboard. Just click the hotkey setting and pick a new one.
Can I use Voibe for medical or legal documentation?
Yes. Many professionals in regulated industries use Voibe because it's a private, offline dictation app with no third-party data sharing. Since everything stays on your device, it's suitable for sensitive professional documentation. However, always consult your organization's specific compliance requirements.
Are my voice recordings stored or saved anywhere?
No. Voibe processes your voice in real-time and immediately discards the audio data once transcription is complete. Nothing is stored, logged, or uploaded. Your audio is as temporary as your thoughts.
