# Take Dictation

> Fast, private dictation for Mac.

You’ve finished saying the reply. You want to keep going.

Take Dictation turns what you say into text where you’re already writing, in apps like Mail, Notes and Messages.

Speech recognition and cleanup happen on your Mac. No upload. No cloud round trip. Your voice and transcript stay on your Mac.

Fixed rules remove fillers and add punctuation, without a chatbot rewriting your sentences.

No app account. No subscription. Try every feature for 14 days, then pay $39 once for your household.

For Apple silicon Macs running macOS 26 or later. English dictation.
