Features
Everything you need.
Nothing you don't.
Privacy First
Whisper runs entirely on your device — bundled in the app, no setup required. No cloud, no data collection, no account. Your voice never leaves your machine.
Works Everywhere
Types directly into any app with focus — email, Slack, VS Code, browser. No plugins required.
AI Transform
Select text, press Ctrl+I, speak: rewrite, summarize, translate, fix grammar. AI transforms in-place — available with Pro.
15+ Languages
English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Indonesian, Spanish, French, German, and more. Whisper handles them natively — available with Pro.
Wake Word
Say "Hey Talky" to activate — no hotkey needed. Powered by Picovoice Porcupine.
Custom Templates
Create reusable prompt templates for your common transforms — emails, code reviews, translations.
History & Search
Every transcription is saved locally. Search, copy, or re-use any past dictation instantly. Available with Pro.
Multi-turn Conversation
AI remembers up to 5 turns of context. Iterate on transforms without repeating yourself — "make it shorter", "now more formal".
Cross Platform
Native performance on Apple Silicon, Intel Macs, and Windows 10/11. Same free experience, every platform.
Universal
Works with
every app.
Talky types directly into any text field — no plugins, no integrations required. Just press a hotkey and speak.
How It Works

seconds.

Dictate
Talk as you normally would. Whisper transcribes with auto-punctuation — no "period" or "comma" commands needed.
Paste
Text is typed directly into your active application the moment you stop. No copy-paste, no switching windows.
