About

Paraspeech is a speech-to-text app for Mac and iOS that turns spoken thoughts into clean text with a simple hold, speak, and release workflow. On Mac, users press and hold a hotkey in the app where they want to write, speak naturally, and release; Paraspeech processes the recording and attempts to insert the result directly into the active editable field, with clipboard fallback for unsupported fields. Apple Silicon Macs can use supported local speech modes, allowing audio to be transcribed on-device and work offline after setup, while eligible cloud-backed paths are also available depending on the selected backend. Fast local models cover English, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, and 25-language dictation, while Multilingual Large expands coverage to more than 100 languages where available. AI Rewriting can turn rambling speech into cleaner, formatted text through Cloud Cleanup or, where supported, an on-device rewrite model.

About

Yap is voice dictation for Apple Silicon Macs (macOS 13 or later). Press a keyboard shortcut in any app, speak, and Yap types clean text at your cursor, in email, documents, notes or chat. Speech recognition and cleanup run on the Mac itself: audio is never uploaded, and dictation works without a connection (setup and periodic license checks need internet). Yap detects the spoken language automatically and keeps a local history of past dictations. USD 6.90 a month or USD 69 a year, with a 14-day free trial (card required).
