About

Aiko is an AI-powered audio transcription app for macOS, iOS, and visionOS. The app converts speech to text from meetings, lectures, recordings, and other audio files using OpenAI’s Whisper model running locally on the user’s device. Aiko is designed for high-quality on-device transcription, making it useful for sensitive recordings that should remain private. The app supports Shortcuts, allowing users to build workflows for recording, transcribing, copying, saving, or processing transcripts. It is available as a Universal Purchase across supported Apple platforms. Built for Apple users who need private speech-to-text, Aiko helps turn audio into text without sending recordings to cloud transcription services.

About

Apple Dictation is a built-in macOS feature that lets users speak to enter text anywhere they can type. Once Dictation is enabled, it can be started with the Microphone key, a customizable keyboard shortcut, or Start Dictation, then stopped with Escape, the same shortcut, or the Microphone key. On Apple silicon Macs, users can continue typing while they dictate, and Dictation resumes listening after keyboard input stops. Spoken commands can insert emoji, punctuation, new lines, and new paragraphs, while supported languages can automatically add commas, periods, and question marks. Dictation supports text of any length and stops automatically after 30 seconds without detected speech. When macOS is uncertain about a word, it underlines the text so users can choose an alternative or correct it manually. Multiple Dictation languages can be enabled and switched while speaking, and users can select a preferred microphone or let macOS choose automatically.
