Wisp / FeaturesFeatures

Two ways to get words down.
One quiet Mac app.

Dictation for the things you want to say. Notetaker for the things you want to remember. Both run on your Mac.

01 / DICTATION

Stay with the thought.
Wisp handles the typing.

Press Control–Option–O and speak into the text field you are already using. Pause to insert a sentence, then carry on.

  • Live words in the notch while you speak
  • Fillers, stutters, supported numbers and times cleaned up
  • 270+ built-in technical names and acronyms
  • Optional names from visible code editors and terminals
  • Per-app formatting and a shortcut to paste the last dictation

02 / NOTETAKER

A useful draft.
Ready for your review.

Capture your microphone and the audio playing on your Mac without inviting a bot. Stop the recording, check the notes, and save to Apple Notes.

  • Live transcription of microphone and system audio
  • On-device summaries, decisions, and action items with Apple Intelligence
  • Editable notes before you save anything to Apple Notes
  • Import existing audio and video recordings
  • Optional calendar titles and meeting-specific notes styles

THE EVERYDAY DETAILS

Small things.
Less friction.

Cleanup you can choose

None, Standard, or Smart. Keep the recognized wording, use predictable formatting rules, or add on-device help with self-corrections.

A vocabulary of your own

Built-in technical terms, your personal dictionary, and snippets for complete phrases. Kept on your Mac.

Your words, your decision

Insert after a pause, hold to talk, review first, or copy text yourself. Change the shortcuts and pause length in Settings.

Your progress, kept locally

Recent dictation history and an Analytics tab for words, fixes, speaking pace, and estimated time saved.

Rewrite by speaking

Select text and use command mode to say how it should change. Review the on-device result before replacing the selection.

A fallback when insertion fails

Password fields are skipped. If text cannot be inserted or the target changes, Wisp keeps the sentence available to copy.

BEFORE YOU START

Built for the Mac you have.

Wisp requires Apple silicon and macOS 26 or later. Apple’s speech assets need an initial download. After setup, processing works offline.

Transcription works without Apple Intelligence. Summaries, Smart cleanup, and rewriting need its on-device model to be available. English has received the most evaluation.

Wisp is in early access. It is a local Mac app with no mobile app or team administration dashboard. Your destination apps and Apple Notes use their own sync settings.
