Native Mac Dictation Workflow
TypeFree lets you dictate, clean up, and insert text into the app you are already using — with a calm native macOS workflow and flexible local or cloud speech engines.
Capture
Turn rough thoughts into text before they disappear, without switching windows or opening a separate editor.
Insert
Use one hotkey, speak naturally, and send text straight into the field you are already focused on.
Polish
Clean up phrasing, improve tone, or rewrite the result when raw transcription is not enough.
How It Works
TypeFree removes the handoff between speaking, editing, and pasting. Start from wherever you work, then decide how polished the output should be.
Trigger capture from the menu bar with a shortcut that fits your Mac workflow.
Transcribe in real time with local Whisper or a connected cloud engine, depending on how you want to work.
Paste the transcript directly or run optional cleanup and rewriting before it lands in your current app.
Works Where You Work
The point is not another writing destination. The point is getting words into the tools you already use, with less friction and fewer mode switches.
Draft responses in Mail or Gmail without pausing to reshape every sentence by hand.
Notes
Capture meeting takeaways, research fragments, and post-call thoughts before they fade.
Docs
Use speech for structure and flow, then refine tone only where it matters.
Chat
Respond in Slack, Discord, or internal tools with something clearer than raw dictation.
Browser Forms
Use TypeFree inside textareas, admin tools, and everyday web inputs that normally slow you down.
Bilingual Ideas
Keep the same capture flow when your notes, replies, or drafts move across languages.
Native by Design
Stay one gesture away from capture instead of managing another always-open window.
Start and stop from anywhere, with shortcuts that feel at home on your Mac.
Use accessibility-powered paste automation when you want text to land exactly where you are working.
Keep the interface approachable across teams and personal setups without changing the core flow.
Local or Cloud
TypeFree does not force one speech stack. Start local if privacy and control matter most, or connect cloud services when convenience and zero model management matter more.
On Device
Connected
Start simple, switch later. The workflow stays familiar even when the engine changes.
From Raw Speech to Better Writing
Some moments need verbatim capture. Others need cleanup, tone shaping, or a stronger rewrite before the words leave your Mac.
