Voice in.Text out.
Spitr is a precise little dictation tool for your Mac. Hold a key, speak, and the words land at your cursor — in any app, any field. No window. No copy-paste.
Built to disappear into your workflow
Every decision points one way: words down, friction gone.
-
01
Writes at your cursor
No floating panel to copy from. Spitr inserts the transcription straight into the focused field, so your attention never leaves the work.
-
02
On-device & private
Transcription runs locally with Whisper-grade models. Your voice doesn't have to leave the Mac, and nothing is stored unless you ask.
-
03
One global hotkey
Hold ⌥ Space to talk, release to type. System-wide, even over full-screen apps — no focus stealing.
-
04
Clean, formatted output
Punctuation, capitalization and line breaks are handled, so the text reads like you typed it by hand.
-
05
Open source, yours to audit
Every line is public. Read it, fork it, build it — or grab a signed release and skip the toolchain.
Three keys to anywhere
From thought to typed text in under a second.
Press
Hit ⌥ Space from any app. Spitr starts listening instantly.
Speak
Talk naturally. The waveform confirms you're heard. Pause whenever.
Release
Let go and your words appear at the cursor, cleanly formatted.
Stop typing. Start talking.
