Hi Sarah, just confirming our meeting tomorrow at 3pm — I've attached the revised proposal.
What 1Transcribe Dictation actually does.
The capabilities you should expect from any modern dictation tool — and what makes 1Transcribe a strong fit if Wispr Flow isn't quite right.
Works in every app
Email, docs, chat, browsers, code editors — text appears wherever your cursor is. No copy-paste, no switching windows.
Your vocabulary, built in
Add client names, specialized terms, code symbols, and brand spellings. The model has your context before you speak.
Reads like you typed it carefully
Removes ums, uhs, and rambling. Adds punctuation, fixes grammar, and matches your tone — output reads like polished writing, not a raw transcript.
Stops when you stop
A 3-second silence auto-stop and live waveform make dictation feel controlled instead of open-ended.
Replacement rules
Fix recurring words, symbols, acronyms, and spellings once so future dictations come out right.
Local history
Keep a useful record of recent dictations on your device, with control over whether history is saved.
Works inside the tools you already write in.
Email, docs, chat, browsers, terminals, AI tools, and every text field on your computer.
Gmail Slack Notion Google Docs ChatGPT Microsoft Word Outlook Discord X Linear Figma VS Code Cursor Claude + any text field
Private by default, clear by design.
Audio is processed for transcription, never used to train models, and not retained long-term. Dictation history stays on your device by default, and you control whether it is saved.
Simple pricing.

Wispr Flow alternative — your questions
Is 1Transcribe a real Wispr Flow alternative?
Yes. 1Transcribe Dictation is built around the same core idea — a double-tap shortcut that turns your speech into polished writing in any app. The differences are platform breadth (we add Android), pricing flexibility (a free tier plus weekly and yearly options), and granular controls like replacement rules and local-first history.
How does 1Transcribe pricing compare to Wispr Flow?
1Transcribe offers a free tier with 10 dictations, a Weekly plan at $4.99, and a Yearly plan at $99.99 — about $1.92/week. Wispr Flow uses a premium-tier subscription model. We invite you to check current Wispr Flow pricing and compare.
Can I dictate on my phone with 1Transcribe?
Yes. 1Transcribe ships native iOS and Android apps, so you can dictate on the go and review your transcripts anywhere — useful when you switch between desktop and mobile throughout the day.
Will it work in Slack, Gmail, Notion, ChatGPT, and Cursor?
Yes. 1Transcribe types directly into any text field on your desktop — Slack, Gmail, Outlook, Google Docs, Microsoft Word, Notion, Discord, X, Linear, Figma, ChatGPT, Claude, VS Code, Cursor, terminals, and any other app you can type into.
Do I need to commit to a paid plan to try it?
No. Download the app and use your 10 included dictations first. You only upgrade if you want unlimited usage. There's no card required to start.
