Typing is a bottleneck for brilliant ideas.

Broken Flow State

Every time you pause to correct a typo or find the right key, you lose your train of thought. Dictation keeps you in the zone.

Cognitive Overload

Translating complex thoughts into keystrokes drains mental energy. Speaking is natural, effortless, and lets your ideas run free.

Physical Strain

Hours hunched over a keyboard leads to fatigue and strain. Give your hands a break and let your voice do the heavy lifting.

4x Faster Than Typing

Reclaim 1+ hours
every day with voice-to-text.

Whether you're drafting emails, writing code documentation, or taking clinical notes, JustVoice dramatically accelerates your workflow. For busy professionals, time is the ultimate currency.

Uncompromising speed.
Private dictation on Mac.

We built JustVoice because digital tools have become too sterile and intrusive. We wanted a tool that feels like a quiet room, where your fast-paced thoughts are kept safe.

100% Local Privacy

Your voice never leaves your device by default. Everything is processed quietly on your Mac, like a closed journal.

Smart Cleanup

Rule-based cleanup removes filler words, handles self-corrections, and adds proper punctuation automatically.

Instant Availability

JustVoice is always ready. A single keystroke summons it, instantly turning your voice into perfectly punctuated text anywhere you type.

Every voice-to-text feature you need.

Every feature is designed around one principle: get out of your way and let you think.

Works in Every App

Dictate into Mail, VS Code, Slack, Chrome, Notes, Pages, your terminal — anywhere you can type. One hotkey, system-wide.

90+ Languages

Automatic language detection across 90+ languages. Dictate in English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and more.

Built-in Notes

Every transcription saved automatically in a local SQLite database. Search, copy, and organize your dictation history.

Code Mode

Dictate code with syntax awareness. Recognizes programming terms, formats identifiers (camelCase, snake_case), and injects relevant jargon.

Dictionary & Snippets

Add custom terms with spoken forms ("A P I" → API). Create snippets with {date}, {time}, {clipboard} variables.

File Transcription

Drop WAV, MP3, M4A, OGG, FLAC, or WebM files for full transcription. Same Whisper engine, same local processing.

Built for Apple Silicon

JustVoice is a native macOS app built with Tauri and Rust. Whisper models run via Metal GPU acceleration — significantly faster than real-time on M1 and newer chips. Intel Macs supported with reduced performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is JustVoice really private?
Yes. By default, all speech-to-text processing happens entirely on your Mac using OpenAI's Whisper model. Your audio is never sent to any server. Cloud features are opt-in only and clearly labeled.
Do I need an internet connection?
No. JustVoice works completely offline in local mode. The Whisper AI model runs on your device using GPU acceleration. An internet connection is only needed for account management or optional cloud sync (Pro plan).
What languages does JustVoice support?
JustVoice supports over 90 languages through the Whisper model, including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, and many more. Language detection is automatic.
How accurate is the transcription?
JustVoice uses OpenAI's Whisper large-v3 model, which achieves near-human accuracy for clear speech in supported languages. Rule-based cleanup automatically handles filler words, punctuation, and formatting.
Does JustVoice work with any app?
Yes. JustVoice works system-wide on macOS — dictate into any text field in any application. Whether you're writing an email, coding in VS Code, chatting in Slack, or taking notes, JustVoice inserts text wherever your cursor is.
How does JustVoice compare to macOS Dictation?
Unlike built-in macOS Dictation, JustVoice processes everything locally by default (Apple sends audio to their servers), supports rule-based text cleanup, code dictation mode, custom vocabulary, and works 4x faster with GPU acceleration on Apple Silicon.
