About
Secretary42 is a desktop dictation application for professionals, writers, developers, and other people who want to turn speech into text while working in their usual Mac or Windows apps. A customizable global hotkey starts and stops dictation; the bundled whisper.cpp engine transcribes speech locally using downloadable Whisper models, and sends the result to the active cursor, clipboard, or a file. Users can choose models that balance speed and recognition quality and review, copy, or delete locally stored transcription history. The app is designed for drafting email, documents, notes, support replies, issue reports, and documentation. Dictation runs on the device without cloud transcription; an internet connection is used separately for checkout, license activation and checks, model and app downloads, support, and optional diagnostics. Secretary42 is available for macOS on Apple Silicon and Windows x64.

About
VoiceTypr is an offline, AI-powered voice-to-text tool available for both Windows and macOS that lets you dictate anywhere you can type by simply holding or toggling a hotkey, with automatic transcription directly into applications such as chat editors, code editors, email fields, and text boxes. It supports over 100 languages, offers multiple transcription-model choices (focusing on accuracy or speed), includes smart formatting modes for everything from casual chat to formal documents, and maintains a searchable history of transcriptions that you can export or copy. Crucially, all processing occurs locally on your machine, so your audio stays private. You simply install the app, download your preferred model, set a global hotkey, then speak and ship, whether you’re writing code prompts, emails, notes, or messages. Additional features include drag-and-drop transcription of MP3, WAV, M4A, MP4, or MOV files, global hotkey activation, and hardware hardware-accelerated performance.
