Tidies punctuation and filler words on-device with Apple Intelligence — your text comes out clean.
Every transcription is saved and searchable, with a weekly report of words dictated and time saved.
Pick any shortcut to start and stop. Choose your mic, and paste-vs-type — all configurable.
Add punctuation, new lines, and edits hands-free — just say the command and keep talking.
Set custom word and phrase replacements so names, jargon, and shortcuts come out exactly right.
