VoiceInk

Most voice-to-text tools send your audio to the cloud — which means your words are processed on someone else's servers, with all the privacy implications that come with it. VoiceInk is different. It's an open-source voice-to-text app for macOS that transcribes your speech to text almost instantly with near-perfect accuracy, using local AI models that run entirely on your device. No internet connection required, no data ever leaves your machine, and optional AI enhancement can further refine your transcriptions when you want it. If you value your privacy and want a fast, reliable dictation tool that works offline, VoiceInk is the macOS app you've been looking for.
