Speak.
It types.

VoiceVector is a native dictation app for macOS and Windows. Hold a key, talk, and clean text lands wherever your cursor is — terminal, editor, anywhere.

macOS: signed & notarized — opens first try · Windows: one signed exe — no installer, no admin, nothing to unzip

How it works

Three moves, no windows

No app to switch to and nothing to click. Dictation happens in whatever you're already typing in.

⌥ hold Hold to talk

Or double-tap to latch for longer dictations. Esc cancels.

· · · Speak your mind

Pause to think — finished phrases transcribe in the background while you talk.

⌘V Release

Cleaned text is pasted at your cursor. Your clipboard is put back the way it was.

Features

Simple on purpose

Dictation tools keep growing dashboards. VoiceVector grows in the other direction: fewer moving parts, more of them yours.

Bring your own brain

ElevenLabs, Cerebras, Vercel AI Gateway, or any OpenAI-compatible server — including one on your own machine. API keys live in your keychain, never in a config file.

Streams while you think

A few seconds of silence sends the phrase ahead for transcription. Long dictations finish in the time of the last sentence.

One call, not two

Point transcription and cleanup at the same audio-capable model and VoiceVector sends your voice and the cleanup prompt in a single request.

The prompt is yours

The exact cleanup instructions are visible and editable in settings. Add your vocabulary — names, jargon, product words — and the models respect it.

Files, not a database

Every recording is a .wav, every transcript a .md in a folder you can see. Grep them, sync them, or forward a folder to a webhook.

Quiet engineering

Zero third-party dependencies. Signed and notarized on macOS. One-click updates that verify the publisher before installing. Source available, all of it — free for individuals and organizations under 1,000 people.

Local first

Your words stay yours

VoiceVector is just a viewer over plain files. Delete the app and every dictation you ever made is still sitting in your documents, readable by anything.
