Write about three times faster
Most people type around 40 words a minute and talk at around 150. You say it once and the text is done.

Voice typing for your computer
Talk. Your computer types.
Spoken is an app that turns your voice into clean text in any program. Hold one key, say what you want to write, and let go.
macOS coming soon

How Spoken helps you
Get finished text, not a messy transcript
Spoken takes out filler words and repeats, adds punctuation, and matches the tone of the app you’re in.
Rewriting and tone matching use an AI service you connect with an API key, such as Claude or OpenAI. Without one, dictation still works with punctuation and light cleanup.
You say
hi sarah uh just following up on the the proposal can you let me know by friday
Spoken writes
Hi Sarah, Just following up on the proposal. Could you let me know by Friday?
Works in every app you type in
There’s nothing to set up for each app. If you can paste text there, Spoken can write there.

Thanks for the update, I’ll send the figures tomorrow.
Your voice stays on your computer
Speech is turned into text on your own machine. The audio is never uploaded. Text only leaves your computer if you connect an AI service, and only goes to the one you chose.

Talk in your own language
Spoken understands nearly 100 languages and detects which one you’re speaking. The app itself comes in English, French and Arabic.
Everything Spoken does
Ask, and it does the work
Hold Right Ctrl and Shift, then ask. Spoken can read what you selected or a public web page, look through what you’ve dictated before, find files and open apps. The answer shows in a small window; press Enter to paste it. Needs a connected AI service.

Thursday’s meeting has to move.
The right tone in each app
Relaxed in chat, polished in email, exact in code. Choose a style for each kind of app and Spoken uses it by itself. Needs a connected AI service.

Questions
What exactly is Spoken?
An app you install on your computer. While it runs, you can hold one key in any program and speak, and your words are typed for you.
Do I need an AI account?
No. Dictation works without one and gives you your words with punctuation and light cleanup. For AI rewriting and voice commands, add an API key from Claude, OpenAI, OpenRouter or Gemini. A regular ChatGPT or Claude subscription won’t work; it has to be an API key.
Do I have to pay?
No. Leave your name, email and company and the download starts right away. If you connect an AI service, that service may charge you for what you use.
Does it work offline?
Dictation does. AI rewriting and voice commands need the internet to reach your AI service.
Which apps does it work in?
Anywhere you can paste text: email, chat, documents, code editors, browsers. The exception is apps running as administrator, because Windows hides Spoken’s key while one is in front. Dictate somewhere else, then paste.
Why does Windows show a warning when I install it?
Spoken doesn’t have the publisher certificate Windows looks for yet, so Windows may say it doesn’t recognize the app. Choose More info, then Run anyway.
Is there a Mac version?
It’s on the way. The download will appear here once it has been tested on real Macs.
