Hey Product Hunt 🎉 I’m Tanay, co-founder & CEO of Wispr Flow, a Mac dictation app that lets you speak naturally, and writes in your style, in every application — with auto-edits, command mode, and over 100 languages. ⭐ The founding story Ever since I watched the first Ironman movie in 2008 at age 10, I've wanted to build Jarvis. It drove me to pull my first all-nighter and start teaching myself how to code. 16 years later, I think we’ve found a way to make a voice experience delightful for all-day use. And there's no one else I'd build this with than my college roommate and closest friend @sahaj_garg2 Our vision is to make voice interfaces both useful (so you trust them) and ubiquitous (so you can use them everywhere). This is how we can move from screen-first technologies to voice-first technologies and build a future where we aren't stuck looking at our phones all day long. ⭐ Using Flow is super simple: 1. Download Flow for Mac 2. Press and hold [Fn] to start speaking in any app 3. Release [Fn] to enter text ⭐ What users love Flow for - 🛠️ Developers using Cursor / Claude / ChatGPT: Speak with AI assistants faster than typing. - ✉️ Professionals breezing through their inbox: Flow accurately captures names and formats your emails and Slack messages. - 🧑‍🎓 Students chatting with AI and finishing assignments even faster: We have a special student discount. - 📄 Product Managers drafting PRDs and sharing thoughts: Flow turns your rambles into clear ideas. - 👶 Parents with busy lives: Time is precious. Every second you save writing is an extra second you have for family. - 🤖 Tech-lovers who want to use voice with every AI tool ⭐ Here’s all you’ll get with Flow 1.0 — and we’re just getting started. 1. ⚡ Blazing fast dictation: Powered by Flow’s ultra-fast inference engine 2. 🎨 Tone match: You speak differently than you write. Flow learns your writing style across every application 3. 🔧 Auto-edits when you change your mind: “Hey lets meet at 5pm, actually lets do 6pm” → “Hey, lets meet at 6pm” 4. 😎 Command Mode for selected text: Say commands like “Flow, make this crisper and more assertive” without copy-pasting into other tools. 5. 🧩 Native integrations: Select text anywhere and just say: “Ask perplexity, what does this mean?” 6. 😶 Whispering mode: Use Flow around others by quietly whispering to your computer. 7. 🔒 Private by design: Your recordings locally on your computer by default. Only you have access to it. You can allow Flow to use your data to improve our models (disabled by default). Learn more: wispr.ai/data-usage For technical users, most voice dictation tools focus on technical metrics like "word error rate." At Flow, we prioritize what truly matters to users: zero-edit messages. With Flow, you rarely need to return to your keyboard for edits. Our new approach has made Flow the first consumer voice dictation platform that makes people enjoy using voice more than their keyboards. ⭐ A final note Our dream is to create a world where interacting with technology feels as natural as interacting with people. I'd love your help to make this a reality. Try out Flow and share your feedback — we're eager to make it even more magical with your input. PS: A huge shoutout to our thousands of beta users who've showered us with love and feedback over the last few months. We wouldn't be here without you.

@sahaj_garg2 @owenfar Thanks, Owen. Big picture, we're excited about future where people spend less time glued to their screens. We believe voice interfaces are part of that future - that's the bet we've made with Flow 1.0. Excited for you to try it!

Congrats @sahaj_garg2 @tanaykothari on launching a worthy TalkTastic competitor. Overall, the product execution is strong. The UI is minimal and seamless, which has its virtues and drawbacks. This is an excellent start. Kudos! One thing I don't understand, though... You claim "recordings locally on your computer by default" and "private by design," but Wispr Flow doesn't work without internet, which says you are sending user data to the cloud. I'm struggling to reconcile these ideas. How can both be true simultaneously? It doesn't add up. Disclosure: I'm the CEO of TalkTastic, a competitor that integrates Claude 3.5 and launched on Product Hunt in July. Our product runs Whisper locally when you are offline.

Hey Matt! Always great to have some competition :) In our onboarding, we explain our privacy policy to our users -- "Your transcripts are processed securely in the cloud but never stored there. All data is saved locally on your device, nothing on our servers. You have complete control on your transcripts. Only you can view and delete them. We cannot access your data." Cloud transcription is the best way to deliver a high accuracy and low latency experience - but we'll enable more local models in the future!

@sahaj_garg2 @tanaykothari @owenfar I think you took the hyperbole used in their marketing video a little too seriously. It's a good product and I used it to write this message. Even though my keyboard, which I use all the time, is right in front of me.

Sooooo much time is spent translating what's in my head to another person. It took me a few seconds to craft this thought, and about 20x longer to type it out. @tanaykothari – how are people using it today? Do they switch all of their typing to voice dictation or is it mostly used for emails or specific workflows?

@rrhoover Usually people start with one application: Cursor, Slack, email, ChatGPT, Notes and it really becomes a habit. And then subconsciously, they slowly end up using it everywhere. Getting deep into one app is one level of activation, and soon users hit the next level of activation which is using it in 20+ applications.

I started using 3 days ago and now it's now my go-to tool for writing without using the keyboard. Great work team :)

@humblemuzzu @tanaykothari Flow has been a transformative application. It's changed the way I use my computer. As an author, I can reduce the amount of time it takes me to write an article by two-thirds utilizing Flow Voice.

@adityamankare @shiva_tejasvi Appreciate it! Let us know if you have any feedback
Anna Filou
It looks very well made. Kind of tempting to switch from BetterDictation, but BetterDictation works completely offline…

@anna_0x We'll work on an offline version in the near future - but it doesn't match the same latency we've been able to get with our cloud models. We've had lots of users switch to Flow for the seamless UI, horsepower of command mode, and iteration speed. Would love to hear your thoughts if you try it!

@anna_0x I used to use better dictation, but this is 100 times better

I'm a big fan of audio-first AI products and you guys nailed the use-case. Also the whisper mode is 🔥 PS: Are you guys responding to comments here on PH using flow? 😃

@5harath I use Flow constantly throughout the day everywhere, including pH

@5harath Thank you! Voice-first design and communication go so hand-in-hand that in hindsight this feels like a no brainer. And yes we are ;)
