Each pause sends a sentence to the prompt. Wisp enters text; you decide when to send it.\n\n## Developer terms, without the spelling detour.\n\nBuilt-in vocabulary covers more than 270 technical names and acronyms, including GitHub, TypeScript, Next.js, OAuth, and CI/CD. Add project-specific terms to your own dictionary.\n\n## Keep control of the final prompt.\n\nUse review-first mode to inspect text before insertion, or copy-only mode when you want to place it yourself. Optional per-app formatting can keep terminal commands lowercase.\n\n## Does Wisp read my repository?\n\nThe optional Names on screen setting reads visible names in supported editors and terminals through Accessibility.

It is currently in early access; the website waitlist is the way to hear when the download is ready. The trial will include all features.\n\n## Let Wisp hear you\n\nOn first use, allow Microphone access. macOS may need an internet connection to download its speech assets. Choose the input you intend to use in Wisp’s microphone picker and speak a short test sentence.\n\n## Allow text insertion\n\nOpen System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility and enable Wisp. This lets it insert text into other apps. Copy-only mode works without automatic insertion.\n\n## Try one sentence\n\nClick in an empty note, tap Control–Option–O, and say a sentence. Pause for it to appear. Press the shortcut again to finish. You can also hold the shortcut, speak, and release it to insert.\n\n## Add notes when you need them\n\nNotetaker uses microphone and system audio permissions. Saving to Apple Notes also asks for Automation access.

Tap it once, then speak. Each pause inserts a finished sentence while Wisp keeps listening. It stops after twenty seconds of silence, or when you press the shortcut again.\n\n## Hold for a short burst\n\nHold the same shortcut while you speak, then release it to insert. This is useful for a quick reply or a search. Change the shortcut in Settings if another combination suits you better.\n\n## Tune the pause\n\nThe pause length is adjustable from one to four seconds. Use a longer pause if you think between phrases. The notch shows live words and a progress ring as an insertion approaches.\n\n## Review or copy instead\n\nReview before inserting waits for you to confirm the text in the notch. Copy-only mode leaves placement to you. These modes handle one dictation at a time instead of continuously inserting sentences.\n\n## Undo and recover\n\nEscape discards the sentence in progress. Say “scratch that” on its own to remove the last inserted sentence, when Wisp can confirm it is still the same text. If a field will not accept an insertion, use Copy text in the notch.\n\n## Related guides\n\n- [Teach Wisp the words you use.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/dictionary-and-snippets)\n- [When the words do not land.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/troubleshooting)\n","url":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/dictation","markdownUrl":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/content/guides/dictation.md"},{"path":"/guides/meeting-notes","title":"From a call to a note you can use.","description":"Capture both sides, review the draft, and save the useful parts to Apple Notes.","category":"Guide","coverage":"article","markdown":"Source: https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/meeting-notes\nContent coverage: article.

Notes use the first speech language you selected. You can enable optional calendar access to help name notes from the event happening now.\n\n## Check the generated draft\n\nApple Intelligence supplies on-device summaries when its model is available for your configuration and language. Check names, numbers, decisions, and who owns each action. If summaries are unavailable, you can still work from the transcript.\n\n## Choose what to save\n\nReview and edit the draft, then save to Apple Notes.

Start there.\n\nTurn an existing audio or video file into a local transcript and a reviewable notes draft.\n\n## Choose a recording\n\nUse the recording import control in Notetaker and select a local file. Wisp supports M4A, MP3, WAV, AAC, AIF, AIFF, CAF, FLAC, MP4, M4V, MOV, and 3GP files. For video, only the audio is used.\n\n## Let your Mac do the transcription\n\nThe file is read on your Mac and is not uploaded or changed. Import uses your first selected speech language. Length, audio quality, language, and your Mac affect the result and processing time.\n\n## Know the speaker limit\n\nAn imported mixed recording is not automatically separated by speaker. Review who said what using the original audio. Do not treat an action item or quotation as verified just because it appears in a draft.\n\n## Review before saving\n\nWhen Apple Intelligence is available, Wisp can also prepare notes from the transcript. Edit the draft and save to Apple Notes. Large recording attachments may be saved as a compact copy to keep the note manageable.\n\n## Related guides\n\n- [From a call to a note you can use.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/meeting-notes)\n- [Languages, models, and what to expect.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/languages)\n","url":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/import-recordings","markdownUrl":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/content/guides/import-recordings.md"},{"path":"/guides/dictionary-and-snippets","title":"Teach Wisp the words you use.","description":"Use a dictionary for names and terms, and snippets for the whole phrases you repeat.","category":"Guide","coverage":"article","markdown":"Source: https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/dictionary-and-snippets\nContent coverage: article. HTML at the source URL is the canonical page.\n\n# Teach Wisp the words you use.\n\nUse a dictionary for names and terms, and snippets for the whole phrases you repeat.\n\n## Add a name to the Dictionary\n\nOpen Dictionary and choose Add word. Enter what Wisp hears and what it should write instead. It is useful for people, products, specialist terms, and the names in your own projects.\n\n## Use a snippet for an entire reply\n\nOpen Snippets and choose Add snippet. Give it a short spoken trigger such as “insert my sign-off”, and save the full text you want. The trigger must match the whole dictation; it does not expand inside an unrelated sentence.\n\n## Choose the right cleanup level\n\nNone keeps the recognized words. Standard uses local rules for fillers, stutters, and supported formatting. Smart can resolve self-corrections using Apple Intelligence when available. Try a short example before relying on a new setting.\n\n## Keep vocabulary on your Mac\n\nYour dictionary and snippets are stored locally alongside Wisp’s history and usage counts. You can remove entries in the app. They do not become a shared team dictionary or sync through a Wisp account.\n\n## Related guides\n\n- [Find your way to talk.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/dictation)\n- [Languages, models, and what to expect.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/languages)\n","url":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/dictionary-and-snippets","markdownUrl":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/content/guides/dictionary-and-snippets.md"},{"path":"/guides/troubleshooting","title":"When the words do not land.","description":"Check the microphone, permissions, target field, and model before changing your workflow.","category":"Guide","coverage":"article","markdown":"Source: https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/troubleshooting\nContent coverage: article. HTML at the source URL is the canonical page.\n\n# When the words do not land.\n\nCheck the microphone, permissions, target field, and model before changing your workflow.\n\n## Wisp cannot hear me\n\nCheck Wisp’s microphone picker, macOS Microphone permission, and the selected device’s input level. Try the built-in microphone to isolate a headset or routing problem. Speak a short sentence in a quiet room.\n\n## Words appear, but are not inserted\n\nCheck Accessibility access for Wisp in System Settings → Privacy & Security. Click in an ordinary text field that accepts pasted text and retry. Password fields are deliberately skipped. If insertion fails, the notch keeps the text available to copy.\n\n## I switched apps while speaking\n\nWisp avoids inserting the current sentence if its target changes mid-sentence. Finish a sentence before moving to a different app. Recover the text with Copy text rather than repeating an entire passage.\n\n## The shortcut does not start a session\n\nCheck the configured combination in Settings. A conflicting global shortcut may need a different combination. If you are holding it, release to finish; if you tap, it starts a hands-free session.\n\n## Transcripts work, but summaries do not\n\nMeeting summaries and Smart cleanup depend on Apple Intelligence availability and language support. Confirm it is enabled and its model is ready. You can continue using standard cleanup and transcripts without it.\n\n## Still stuck?\n\nEmail support with your macOS version, Mac model, and the steps that reproduce the issue. Troubleshooting recordings are off by default. Only enable or share recordings if you are comfortable including their contents.\n\n## Related guides\n\n- [Your first five minutes with Wisp.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/getting-started)\n- [Find your way to talk.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/dictation)\n","url":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/troubleshooting","markdownUrl":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/content/guides/troubleshooting.md"},{"path":"/guides/languages","title":"Languages, models, and what to expect.","description":"Understand speech language selection, offline setup, and the extra requirements for AI summaries.","category":"Guide","coverage":"article","markdown":"Source: https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/languages\nContent coverage: article.

Availability can vary with macOS and installed assets.\n\n## Choose up to two for dictation\n\nDictation can use two selected languages and choose the more confident recognition for each sentence. This is speech recognition, not automatic translation. Notetaker and recording imports use the first selected language.\n\n## Check AI features separately\n\nApple Intelligence has its own model and language requirements. A speech language being available does not guarantee Smart cleanup, command-mode rewriting, or generated meeting summaries are available in it.\n\n## Try your real vocabulary\n\nEnglish is the language we have evaluated most. Test a short sample with your accent, microphone, and specialist terms. Add names to your dictionary and review important output. We do not promise equal accuracy in every language.\n\n## Set up before going offline\n\nmacOS may download speech and Apple Intelligence assets during setup. Once the necessary models are installed and available, Wisp processes speech on your Mac without a connection. An optional Accurate dictation model also requires its own initial download.\n\n## Related guides\n\n- [Your first five minutes with Wisp.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/getting-started)\n- [From a call to a note you can use.](https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/meeting-notes)\n","url":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/guides/languages","markdownUrl":"https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/content/guides/languages.md"},{"path":"/commands","title":"Shortcuts and spoken commands","description":"Default keyboard shortcuts, spoken punctuation, snippets, and command mode.","category":"Reference","coverage":"reference","markdown":"Source: https://quietmachines.fyi/wisp/commands\nContent coverage: reference.
