AI Voice Transcription for Mac
Voxt transcribes speech into text, then can use a language model to remove filler, fix punctuation, improve structure, and apply your custom instructions. When the result is ready, Voxt inserts it into the text field you are already using.
At a glance
- Capture speech and convert it to text from any focused Mac input.
- Clean, format, or rewrite the transcript with configurable enhancement rules.
- Keep the result in a preview when no writable field is focused, or insert it at the cursor.
- Choose local ASR and LLM channels, or connect remote providers with your own keys.
From spoken words to finished writing
Transcription is more useful when the output is ready for the destination. Voxt separates speech recognition from text enhancement, so you can decide how much processing to apply after capture.
Speech-to-text capture
Hold the transcription shortcut, speak naturally, and release. Voxt produces a transcript from the selected ASR channel.
Model-enhanced cleanup
Apply punctuation, filler removal, formatting, concise rewrites, or a custom prompt after transcription. The rule can match the way you write.
Automatic insertion
If a text field is focused, the finished result is inserted at the cursor. This works for everyday writing across chat, email, notes, browsers, and editors, subject to macOS permissions.
Useful transcription workflows
Use the same hold-to-talk habit for quick capture and carefully formatted output. The enhancement step can be light for speed or more opinionated for a specific writing task.
Email and messages
Speak in rough phrases and let cleanup turn them into readable sentences before they are pasted into the conversation.
Technical writing
Use custom instructions to preserve code terms, product names, units, or a preferred outline while the model formats the prose.
Private local dictation
Route recognition and enhancement through local model channels when you want a local-first workflow. Remote channels are available with your own provider keys.
FAQ
What is AI voice transcription on Mac?
AI voice transcription converts spoken audio into text and can then use a language model to clean, format, or rewrite that text. Voxt combines both steps in a desktop workflow that can insert the result into the focused Mac input.
Can Voxt clean up a raw transcript?
Yes. Voxt can apply model enhancement for punctuation, filler removal, formatting, and custom transformations after speech recognition. The exact result depends on the selected model and the enhancement rule you configure.
Does Voxt insert transcription into other apps?
When a writable field is focused and macOS Accessibility permission is enabled, Voxt can insert the finished transcription at the cursor. If no field is available, the result can remain in a preview for copying.
Can transcription stay local?
Voxt supports local ASR and LLM channels for a local-first workflow. You can also bring your own keys for remote providers when you prefer a different model, latency, or language capability.
