VoiceType Pro — dictation that stays yours

Talk. It types. On your Windows PC, with the speech model running on your machine — no cloud, no account, no audio ever leaving your device.

What it does

• Offline speech-to-text powered by Whisper — works with your microphone disabled from the internet.
• Dictate anywhere: emails, documents, browsers. It types where your cursor is.
• Private by architecture: the model loads from local storage; there is no server to send audio to.

The honest catch (and why it’s free)

This build is unsigned — we haven’t paid for a Windows code-signing certificate yet. Until we do, Windows shows a scary blue banner on first run. The software is fine; the warning just means Windows doesn’t recognize the publisher. If that doesn’t scare you off:

1. Run the installer. Windows shows “Windows protected your PC”.
2. Click More info.
3. Click Run anyway.
