You type more than you think.

The average pro types 8,000+ words a day across email, Slack, docs, and AI prompts. That's roughly 3 hours of typing — every single day.

3 hours of your day. Every day.

Email, Slack, Notion, ChatGPT — typing eats the hours you wanted for the actual work.

Built-in dictation makes you edit twice.

Mac and Windows dictation drop a raw transcript with ums, missing punctuation, and weird capitalizations. You end up retyping half of it.

It mangles every name that matters.

Client names, product terms, code symbols. Teach 1Transcribe once and it remembers — built-in dictation never will.

You'll feel it within 10 dictations.

  • If you're a developer: Dictate prompts, PR notes, and Cursor commands without leaving flow.
  • If you're in sales: Turn call notes into clean follow-ups before the next meeting.
  • If you write docs: Draft briefs, reports, and meeting notes at the speed of thought.
  • If you switch languages: Speak in any of 99+ — the app figures it out.

Now imagine your morning.

  • You open Slack — 14 unread. You answer them in the time it takes to read them.
  • You open Gmail — three replies, one proposal follow-up. Done in two minutes.
  • You open Cursor — the prompt that used to take five minutes takes thirty seconds.

That's a normal Tuesday with 1Transcribe.

Say it rough. Send it clean.

Watch natural speech become finished writing inside the app you already have open.

Got questions?

Answers before you click download.

How accurate is the AI dictation?

1Transcribe uses cloud-powered AI to handle accents, technical jargon, punctuation, and natural speech patterns. Add custom vocabulary for client names, code symbols, or industry terms to make it more precise.

Will it work in the apps I already use?

Yes. 1Transcribe Dictation works in any text field on your computer — email (Gmail, Outlook), docs (Google Docs, Word, Notion), chat (Slack, Discord), browsers, code editors (VS Code, Cursor), and more. If you can type into it, you can dictate into it.

How is this different from Mac or Windows built-in dictation?

Three big differences. First, accuracy — built-in dictation often misses jargon, names, and natural speech. Second, polish — we remove ums, uhs, and rambling so the output reads like writing, not a transcript. Third, control — custom vocabulary, replacement rules, and dictation history give you the precision pros need.

What's free, and what's paid?

You get 10 free dictations forever. After that, unlock unlimited dictations with Weekly ($4.99/week) or save 62% with Yearly ($99.99/year). All plans include the same features. Subscribe inside the app, cancel any time.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. Download the app for free and use your included dictations before choosing a paid plan.

What happens to my voice and data?

Audio is processed by our AI for transcription, never used to train models, and not retained long-term. Your dictation history stays on your local device by default — you control whether it's saved.

Does it work offline?

Dictation uses cloud-powered AI, so you need an internet connection when turning speech into text.

Can I change the shortcut?

Yes. Set the double-tap shortcut that feels natural for your keyboard and workflow.

Does it handle accents and industry terms?

Yes. 1Transcribe is built for natural speech, accents, and specialized vocabulary. Add custom vocabulary for names, product terms, medical words, legal terms, code symbols, or company-specific spelling.

What languages does it support?

99+ languages with automatic language detection. Just speak naturally — the app figures out the language. Great for multilingual professionals who switch between languages throughout the day.
