openflow

openflow is an AI-powered dictation app for macOS. Hold a hotkey, speak, and the cleaned transcript is typed into the field you were already using.

It stays out of the way so you can dictate into Mail, a browser, a terminal, or any other app without switching windows. Dictionary entries, phrases, and style options help the transcript match how you actually write.

Requires macOS 26 or later on Apple Silicon, plus Microphone and Accessibility.
