Air Wisper

Air Wisper is a macOS voice-to-text app that turns speech into cleaned-up text for use in any app. It is built for people who want to dictate naturally and get polished text back without typing, with the page describing it as “private by default” and saying that audio never leaves the Mac.

The app accepts rambling speech, filler words, pauses, and half-formed thoughts, then cleans the result into text that appears wherever the cursor is active. Its listed features include on-device transcription through Apple Speech Recognition, AI text polish that strips filler words and fixes grammar and punctuation, direct typing into the active app, a single hotkey workflow, transcription in 14+ languages with downloadable on-device models, and local transcription history with timestamps, word count, and the app in use. It also says the app is a native macOS app, built in Swift, uses under 50MB of RAM, launches in under a second, and is available as a lightweight menu bar app.

Air Wisper is described for developers, business and finance users, healthcare workers, and writers and creators. The page names example uses such as dictating PR descriptions, documentation, Slack messages, commit notes, emails, reports, client responses, clinical notes, referrals, blog posts, scripts, and newsletters. It is shown as working in Slack, Mail, Notion, VS Code, and browsers, and the setup steps listed are to create a free account, install the app, grant microphone and accessibility permissions, and start talking. The app is available on macOS 14+ and supports Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.

Pricing is shown as free to start, with a Free plan at $0 and no credit card required. The Free plan includes on-device transcription, AI grammar cleanup, and work in every app. A Pro plan is listed at $3.99 per month, with everything in Free plus a cloud transcription engine, higher usage limits, and priority support.
