Don't type — speak. The text appears where your cursor is

Result
Speak the way it comes. The window gets finished text
AI removes filler words, slips and repeats and adds punctuation. There is hardly anything left to fix after dictating.
Speed
Three times faster than typing
People type about 40 words a minute and speak about 130. An email that takes five minutes to type takes a minute and a half to say.
Where it works
Wherever the cursor is, that's where the text goes
Email, chat, Word, the browser, an AI prompt box — voice typing works in any window, no plugins. For long text, skip the holding: press the key twice.
Works in the apps you already use
- Messengers
- Word and Google Docs
- Browser
- AI chats
- Code editors
- Any window with a cursor
Vibe coding
Vibe coding: easier to say the task than to type it
A good prompt is a paragraph of context, not a one-liner. Saying it is three times faster than typing it: hold the key in Cursor, Claude Code or the terminal and explain the task the way you would to a teammate.
You can trust it with your keyboard
It listens only while you hold the key
The microphone turns on when you press the key and off when you let go.
It doesn't read what you type
The app watches a single modifier key, not your typing.
It never types into password fields
Dictation won't run in a protected field, and dictated text stays out of your clipboard history.
Your voice isn't stored
The recording is deleted right after recognition. The text is encrypted and visible only to you.
How it differs from dictation built into Windows and macOS
Windows dictation (Win+H) and dictation for Mac write down words. Specala AI writes text.
Built-in dictation
- Takes down everything: every "um", "you know" and slip stays in the text
- Punctuation is partial or needs voice commands
- You switch the language by hand
- No history of what you dictated
- Dictation only: meetings and files need other software
Specala AI
- AI removes filler words, slips and repeats
- Adds punctuation and capital letters on its own
- 99 languages, detected automatically
- Dictation history and stats: words, speed, day streak
- The same app records meetings and transcribes files
The app
Dictation lives where your meetings do
Specala AI records calls without a bot, transcribes files and writes the recap — dictation comes with the same plan. How much you've dictated, and how fast, is right there in the app.
