Superwhisperlatest version

Superwhisper is an AI-powered voice-to-text app designed for everyday writing: simply speak your ideas, and the app will convert your speech into editable text that you can insert directly into your messages, emails, or documents. It’s available on macOS, Windows, iOS, and Android, and supports both direct dictation and various modes for refining wording and formatting.

What is Superwhisper?

Superwhisper is provided by SuperUltra, Inc., which states in its official description that its team is based in Canada. Public update records date back to Mac products in 2023, and the service has since expanded to mobile devices and Windows. It continues to evolve around the concept of “voice-enabled workflows,” adding features such as mode configuration, vocabulary management, document transcription, and meeting summarization. The product supports both on-device and cloud-based models, making it suitable for users who wish to adjust their settings based on speed, device performance, and privacy requirements.Official Team Introduction

Key Features

1. Voice input in commonly used apps.On the desktop, use keyboard shortcuts to start and stop recording; the results can be inserted at the current cursor position. On iPhone, it works via a custom keyboard; on Android, it uses a floating button, so you don't have to repeatedly switch to a separate editor for each segment of speech.
2. Select a mode based on its intended use.Direct dictation is best for preserving the original meaning, while AI modes for messages, emails, and the like can further organize punctuation, paragraphs, and phrasing. The custom mode allows you to save specific requirements—such as organizing spoken key points into bullet points—but you should still check to ensure the model hasn’t altered the facts.Model Description
3. You can choose between speech and text models.The speech model handles transcription, while the language model handles optional polishing; each is configured separately. The system supports Chinese and other languages, but the specific language support varies by model. When selecting Chinese, ensure that the chosen model supports it, rather than using a version limited to English.List of Models and Languages
4. Glossary and Substitution Rules.You can add frequently used names, project names, and technical terms to reduce the need for repeated corrections; however, you should still double-check amounts, dates, abbreviations, and words with similar pronunciations before sending the document.
5. History Logs and Handling Longer Content.You can review recordings and edit transcripts; the Pro version includes transcription of audio and video files, as well as advanced features such as system audio and speaker recognition. Implementation may vary across platforms, so please verify compatibility with your specific device before purchasing.

Real-World Applications

• Emails and Work Messages:First, clearly state the background, conclusion, and request, then let the system organize the text into readable paragraphs. After reviewing it, send it yourself.
• Writing and First Draft of the Proposal:Developing an outline through oral narration and then eliminating repetitive ideas is suitable for a writing approach where you develop the content first and refine the structure later.
• Development Requirements and Technical Notes:Describe the expected behavior and the steps to reproduce the issue, and use the glossary to retain the project name; code, paths, and commands should still be verified item by item.
• Reduce continuous keyboard input:Share the typing in settings where it is appropriate to speak, and avoid reading aloud private or business information in public places.

How to Get Started

1. Select your operating system from the official website. The desktop quick start guide requires macOS 14 or later, or Windows 10/11; mobile installation requirements are subject to the app store's specifications.
2. Enable the necessary permissions based on the intended use. Mac requires microphone and accessibility permissions; iPhone requires adding a keyboard and enabling “Allow Full Access”; Android cross-app input involves floating window, text insertion, and microphone permissions.
3. First, use the direct dictation mode to record a common passage, and check the Chinese text, proper nouns, and punctuation. Switch to AI mode only when you need to polish the text, to avoid confusing transcription errors with the AI’s rewritten results from the start.
4. If you want to use the feature offline, first download the local model supported by your device, and make sure that subsequent text processing also uses the local model—or skip this step.

Mode and vocabulary settings for iPhone and Android are currently saved on the device and are not automatically synced from a computer; the mobile app is designed for smartphones, and the official help documentation does not list iPads or Android tablets as supported devices.iPhone Setup Instructions ｜ Android Setup Instructions

Fees and Usage Restrictions

What's the difference between the Free Dictation and the Pro versions?

The free plan offers local Whisper model dictation, vocabulary, and text replacement, with up to two modes that do not include AI post-processing. The Pro plan adds capabilities such as cloud-based models, AI modes, and file transcription; the official documentation lists pricing at $8.49 per month, $84.99 per year, or a one-time payment of $249.99. New users can try the Pro features with a 3,000-word trial. A single Pro license can be used on multiple supported devices by one individual, but pricing may vary depending on the store channel, currency, taxes, and actual checkout price.Package Description

Offline and Privacy Depend on the Entire Processing Path

“Having a local model” does not mean that no data is uploaded for any features. If speech is transcribed locally but the text is sent to a cloud-based model for refinement, the text will still leave the device; when using a cloud-based speech model, the audio must also be processed online. Fully local use requires both stages to remain on the device, or for transcription to be performed locally only. When integrating third-party APIs on your own, you must also review the data terms of the corresponding services.Official Data Processing Guidelines

Local models consume additional storage and computing resources, and the app installation package does not include the entire model. Available models vary by device, so we cannot guarantee that all four platforms will have the same offline capabilities. The interface is primarily in English, and the language listed in the iOS App Store is English; support for Chinese voice commands does not imply a fully Chinese interface.

How do I choose between different tools?

If you want to get your thoughts down on paper faster, consider Superwhisper first; if your main task is to consistently organize team meetings, you should focus more on meeting note-taking tools. Either way, AI-generated text should always be reviewed by you.
