VOCIS WRITES · TIDY

Hey Maya, can we move the review to Thursday morning? I need another day with the prototype. Thanks.

Tidy cleans up punctuation and rough edges before the words reach the page. For work with its own shape, create a custom mode and give it a dedicated hotkey.

Not every job starts at the cursor.

Keep moving,
wherever the words begin.

01 · Repeated text

Say a little.
Insert a lot.

Use a short spoken trigger for an entire signature, address, standard reply, or any text you repeat. It expands only when the trigger is the whole thing you say.

02 · Your vocabulary

Your language,
spelled your way.

Dictate in English or choose the 99-language model with auto-detection. Add names, product terms, and jargon so they land the way you write them.

03 · Existing text

Revise by saying
what should change.

Select text in any app and ask for it shorter, friendlier, reshaped, or translated. Vocis replaces the selection in place and leaves the original alone if the rewrite fails.

04 · Recordings

Turn recordings
into working text.

Choose an audio or video file and take away a transcript you can copy, clean up with your active mode, and put back to work.

Your unfinished thoughts
stay yours.

Your voice and writing stay on your Mac. Once you download the models you choose, you can dictate and rewrite offline—without an account, telemetry, or a transcription service hearing a word.

The useful details,
up front.

Will Vocis work in the apps I use?

Vocis listens from a global hotkey and inserts text into the focused text field in any app. If automatic insertion is unavailable, the finished text is already on your clipboard.

Can I use Vocis without an internet connection?

Yes. Once your speech model is downloaded, dictation works offline. Download the optional language model as well and rewriting stays offline too. Vocis uses the network only to download models and check for software updates.

Which languages can I dictate in?

Choose a smaller English-only speech model or a multilingual model that supports 99 languages. The multilingual model can detect the language automatically or follow your preference.

What does Vocis cost?

Nothing. Every feature is included for free, with no account required.

Less typing. More thinking.

Your next thought
is faster out loud.
