For Mac
Your voice, everywhere on your Mac
Press and hold a hot key, speak, and AudioPen inserts clean, polished text right where your cursor is. Any app, any text field. No tab-switching. No copy-pasting. Just talk.
Voice typing
Two ways to speak your text
Voice typing is the primary mode on AudioPen for Mac. One hot key, two ways to use it, depending on how polished you want the output.
Hot Key Press
Fast & private
Press and hold the hot key to speak. Release when done.
Transcription happens entirely on your device. Nothing is sent to any server.
Clean, formatted text inserted directly into your text field.
Best for quick replies, search queries, and anything where speed matters most.
AI Rewrite
Polished & styled
Double-tap the hot key to start. Tap again when finished.
Transcription is local. Rewriting happens in the cloud, but nothing is saved. Your data stays on your device.
Text is rewritten in a style of your choice, then inserted at your cursor.
Best for emails, long-form writing, and anything where tone and clarity matter.
Privacy first
Your audio never leaves your Mac
Voice typing transcription happens locally, on your device. Your recordings are never sent to a server, never stored in the cloud, never seen by anyone but you.
Transcription stays on your Mac
Every voice typing transcription is processed on-device. Your audio is never uploaded. It never even leaves your machine.
AI Rewrite saves nothing
When you use AI Rewrite, the rewriting happens in the cloud, but none of your data is stored. It’s processed and immediately discarded.
Private by design
Your voice recordings, your transcriptions, and your text all stay on your device. There’s nothing to breach because there’s nothing to collect.
Use it everywhere
Any app. Any text field. Any thought.
If you can type in it, you can speak into it. AudioPen works wherever your cursor is.
Emails
Compose replies in Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail. Speak your response, get a polished draft.
Slack & messaging
Voice-type in Slack, Teams, Discord, or iMessage. Faster than thumbs, clearer than autocomplete.
Documents
Draft in Google Docs, Notion, Obsidian, or any writing app. Think out loud, write it down.
Code comments & PRs
Leave meaningful code reviews and PR descriptions without breaking your flow.
Social media
Write tweets, LinkedIn posts, or captions by talking through your idea first.
Forms & CRMs
Fill in Jira tickets, HubSpot notes, or any web form with your voice instead of your keyboard.
Notes mode
Save your best ideas with AudioPen.
Triple-tap your hotkey to record a thought and save it to your AudioPen notes library. It’ll get processed just like it does on the web, classic AudioPen style. Your notes sync across devices, so you can pick them up on web, iOS, or Android.
