On the Mac today. Windows and Linux in beta.

A cutaway house. You hold a key and talk into a microphone; the sound runs down a cable to the computer's memory, through the whisper.cpp machine where the robot watches, and up a pipe to the screen, where the words type. Nothing leaves the walls. whisper.cpp Thanks Priya, Thursday works for me. To: Priya Thanks Priya, Thursday works for me. | T h a you hold this key, talk mic on only while you hold your words land where you're typing the 23-second reel kept in memory, never saved the companion nothing leavesthese walls

Swipe the house to look around.

Hold, speak, let go.

Hold the key, say what you want to write, and let go. Utter types it wherever your cursor is: Mail, Slack, Notes, your browser, your editor.

  • Double-tap the key for hands-free. It stops after 3 seconds of quiet.
  • Press Esc to cancel at any time.
  • No text box selected? Your words wait on the pill, with Copy and Save as note.

Twenty-three seconds of Utter.

Hold the key, say it, let go. The reel shows the whole thing, from the pill lighting up to the words landing in the app you were already using.

NOW SHOWING UTTER · 23 SECONDS

Meetings, written down in the order they happened.

Your mic is "You". The computer's sound is "Others". Every turn lands in the transcript in the order it was said.

  • When your mic hears the call through your speakers, Utter drops the echo. Headphones keep it cleanest.
  • Pause and resume whenever you like.
  • When a Zoom, Teams, Webex, Slack or Discord call starts, Utter offers to record it, and stops when the call ends.

Your words, spelled your way.

Teach Utter the names and terms it gets wrong, and it spells them the way you do. Say a trigger and a whole snippet types itself.

  • Snippets fill in [date], [time], [datetime], [day] and [clipboard] as they type.
  • Voice commands: "delete that", "new line", "new paragraph", "select all", "copy that", "new note", "continue the note".
  • Spoken punctuation, if you want it: say "comma" or "question mark".

Every day is a tape.

Your dictations land on today's tape: Side A for the morning, Side B for the afternoon. Notes and meetings sit beside them in the Library.

A robot that keeps you company.

It perks up while you talk and naps when you don't. It can remind you to stretch, drink water or take a focus break, keep the things you tell it with the Remember shortcut, and cheer when you reach today's goal.

It has over a hundred small moments, each one tied to something that really happens. Optional, and off until you turn it on.

Your voice stays home.

Audio is never written to disk or uploaded. whisper.cpp turns it into text right on your computer, so it works offline, with no account and no analytics. Crash reports stay with you, and the only download is a speech model you choose.

Pick the engine that fits.

Small, in English, comes with Utter and works offline from the first minute. Base is the smallest, Medium is best on technical terms, and Large Turbo covers 99 languages and handles accents best. The optional ones download from Hugging Face and are checked by SHA-256 before Utter uses them.

Does my voice leave my computer?

No. whisper.cpp turns it into text on your computer. Audio is never uploaded and never written to disk.

Does it work offline?

Yes. The Small English model comes with Utter, so dictation works without the internet from the first minute.

The bundled model understands English. Large Turbo, an optional download, covers 99 languages.

What about the Apple Intelligence features?

Voice transforms like "make it concise" and meeting summaries use Apple Intelligence, so they're on the Mac only, where Apple Intelligence is available.
