ZenVoice is a Mac dictation app for writers, developers, professionals, and anyone who wants to write by speaking. Press a shortcut, talk, and it transcribes and polishes your words directly into the active app, including terminals, browsers, messaging apps, editors, and office tools.

It runs on your Mac with no account, cloud processing, or analytics, and keeps voice data and insights local.
