About Voibe
Voibe transforms spoken words into text directly on your Mac, eliminating the need to type by hand in any application. Powered by optimized Whisper models running locally on Apple Silicon, the tool delivers fast speech recognition without sending audio to the cloud. Because every transcription happens on-device, sensitive conversations, proprietary code, and personal notes stay private and never leave the computer.
The app integrates seamlessly with the macOS text input system, meaning it works everywhere a cursor blinks. From Notion and Slack to email clients, VS Code, Cursor, and web browsers, Voibe types directly into the active field without copy-paste steps or browser extensions. A hold-to-talk workflow using the Fn key or a custom hotkey lets users speak naturally and release to instantly insert finished text, keeping thoughts flowing without modal dialogs or interruption.
Voibe includes a Developer Mode built for technical workflows, with support for programming terminology, file paths, and code-adjacent language. Memory and custom vocabulary features let the tool learn from user behavior and adapt to domain-specific terms, while smart punctuation produces clean output that requires minimal editing. For anyone using AI assistants, Voibe makes it easy to dictate rich, nuanced prompts to ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity, often producing better results than typed input.
