Everything you need, nothing you don't

Privacy by Design

Your audio is never stored — processed in memory and discarded. We collect minimal usage data to improve transcription quality. Your data is never sold or used to train AI models.

Ultra Fast

Your words appear in just 0.3 seconds. Faster than any other dictation app. Speak naturally — the text is ready before you finish thinking.

Phone as Microphone

Use your Android phone as a wireless mic for your PC. Better audio quality than most laptop mics. Walk around freely while dictating.

Auto-Paste at Cursor

Text appears exactly where your cursor is. Works in any app — VS Code, Chrome, Word, Slack, ChatGPT. No copy-paste needed.

100+ Languages

Dictate in any language — English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and 100+ more. Auto-detects your language. Switch languages mid-sentence.

Lightweight & Invisible

Uses almost no memory. Starts instantly. Runs silently in the system tray — always ready, never in the way. Your PC won’t even notice it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my voice data stored or used for training?

Your audio is processed in memory and never stored. We never train AI models on your data. In Smart mode, a screenshot is used to understand context (e.g., formatting for the app you’re in) — this data is kept securely and never shared with third parties.

Does Dicta work offline?

Dicta requires an internet connection to transcribe your voice. The audio is processed in the cloud for maximum speed and accuracy (0.3 seconds). An offline mode is planned for a future update.

What apps does it work with?

Dicta works with any app where you can type. Word, Chrome, VS Code, Slack, WhatsApp Web, Gmail, Notion — if you can put your cursor there, Dicta can type there. Text appears exactly where your cursor is.

What languages are supported?

Dicta supports 100+ languages including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, and many more. It auto-detects your language — no configuration needed. You can even switch languages mid-sentence.

What's the difference between Free and Pro?

Free gives you 20 minutes of dictation per day with basic transcription. Pro unlocks unlimited dictation, AI grammar correction, smart context-aware mode, 100+ languages, custom vocabulary, and recordings up to 5 minutes long.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Monthly and annual plans can be cancelled anytime from your dashboard. Lifetime access is a one-time payment with no recurring charges — you pay once and use Dicta forever, including all future updates.

How does Dicta compare to Wispr Flow?

Unlike Wispr Flow, Dicta never captures screenshots of your screen. Dicta uses 50MB of RAM (vs ~800MB), transcribes in 0.3 seconds, and costs $7.99/mo (vs $15/mo). Dicta also lets you use your phone as a wireless microphone — a feature no competitor offers.
