About
Hold a key and talk. Roundhand writes clean text shaped for the app in front of you: short in Slack, a proper email in Mail, a list in Notes, one line with exact casing in a terminal.
- Speech is recognised on your Mac with NVIDIA's Parakeet model. Your audio is never uploaded or saved to disk.
- The built-in cleanup, also on your Mac, drops fillers like "um", keeps what you meant when you say "scratch that", and fixes capitals and punctuation.
- Four styles (Terminal, IDE and AI chat, Chat, Prose) are picked from the app you are in, and you can change them per app.
- A Dictionary sets how words you say are written, such as a product name.
- 25 languages, detected automatically.
- It will not read or type into password fields.
- Optional cloud cleanup sends text, never audio, to an LLM for freer rewording, on a paid plan or with your own API key.
Free to download, no account needed. Dictation and the offline cleanup stay free. For Apple silicon Macs on macOS 14 or later.
