Push-to-talk dictation for macOS. On-device transcription with Apple's speech engine, so your audio never leaves your Mac.
14 days free, no account. macOS 26 or later, Mac with Apple silicon.
Apple's speech engine runs the transcription on your Mac. The model downloads once from macOS. Everything after that works offline.
Mail, Xcode, Slack, a terminal: if it takes keyboard input, Voice Butler types into it. Insert by paste or character by character.
The microphone is live only while the key is held. No background listening, no wake word, nothing to toggle off.
The last 1,000 transcripts, searchable and stored locally. Copy any entry back out, or clear everything in one click.
No accounts, no cloud, no telemetry. Voice Butler has no servers. Audio is processed by macOS itself and discarded the moment your words are typed.
