OpenSuperWhisper

Free, open-source dictation app for Apple Silicon Macs

OpenSuperWhisper records and transcribes your voice on your Mac using local Whisper or Parakeet models, with global shortcuts, hold-to-record and drag-and-drop file transcription. It's MIT-licensed and installs via Homebrew. Speaking instead of typing can also make writing easier for people who find typing slow, tiring or painful.
