Privacy-first by design

Your voice never leaves your machine.

Most dictation tools send your audio to a cloud server. Whisper Widget runs entirely on your device — no microphone access by a third party, no recordings stored remotely, no internet required after first setup.

Works offline, always

Download the model once, use it forever. On a plane, in a basement, behind a strict firewall — Whisper Widget doesn't care. No API keys. No quotas. No outages.

Learns your vocabulary

Add corrections once and they apply everywhere — past transcriptions retroactively corrected, future ones right the first time. Technical terms, proper nouns, brand names: all handled.

Features

100% Local AI Transcription

Powered by OpenAI Whisper running entirely on your machine. Your audio never leaves your device — no cloud, no subscription, no privacy trade-off.

Types Anywhere

Injects transcribed text directly into whatever window is focused — code editors, browsers, terminals, chat apps, email. No copy-paste required.

Toggle & Push-to-Talk Modes

Toggle mode: press once to start, press again to stop. Push-to-talk: hold the hotkey while speaking. Choose what fits your workflow.

Word Correction Dictionary

Teach the app your vocabulary once. Right-click any transcript entry to add a correction — it applies to all future and past transcriptions automatically.

Model Selection

Choose from Whisper tiny (fast, 75 MB) through large-v3 (most accurate, 3 GB). Swap models in Settings without reinstalling.

Full Transcription History

Every dictation is saved with timestamp and word count. Search, re-inject, export to CSV, or delete individual entries from the history panel.

Stats & Usage Tracking

See words dictated, audio recorded, transcription count, and average latency — per session and all-time. Sparkline trend for the last 7 days.

Cross-Platform

Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux. One purchase covers all three platforms. Native text injection on each OS.

Stays Out of the Way

Ultra-compact floating widget (95px collapsed). Hides from the taskbar and Dock. Auto-expands waveform during recording, snaps back when done.

What Users Are Saying

I dictate code comments, commit messages, and Slack replies without ever leaving the keyboard. The word correction dictionary handles all my technical terms perfectly.

Software Developer

Dragon costs $300 and requires internet. Whisper Widget does the same job locally for $30. The accuracy on large-v3 is genuinely impressive.

Writer & Content Creator

I use this all day for RSI management. The push-to-talk mode is perfect — no accidental activations, and the widget stays out of the way while I work.
