Local transcription powered by WhisperKit. Your voice never leaves your Mac.
Push-to-talk or toggle mode. Press your custom hotkey, speak, and your words appear at the cursor. Conflict detection keeps shortcuts sane.
Choose the exact input device you want—USB mics, interfaces, or built-in. Guided setup helps you pick the right source.
Set an optional duration limit to auto-stop runaway recordings and keep your workflow focused.
Keep a running list of recent results so you can revisit, copy, and reuse transcripts anytime.
Powered by WhisperKit, transcription happens entirely on your Mac. Your audio never leaves your device.
Optionally use OpenAI's Whisper API when you need it. Perfect for challenging audio or when you want faster results.
Unlike cloud-based transcription services, Overwhisper processes everything locally using Apple's Neural Engine. No accounts, no uploads, no data collection.
