Description

Orca One provides AI-driven dictation and meeting note-taking specifically for Mac users. This software is efficient, operates directly on the device, and ensures full privacy for its users. You can dictate within any application and record meetings without needing to introduce a bot into the conversation. The transcription process occurs locally on an Apple silicon Mac, guaranteeing speed and security. Additionally, Orca One features a voice launcher and can share notes with a desktop AI assistant of your preference. You can test it out for free, and if you like it, you can purchase a single license for one Mac without having to commit to a subscription. It requires macOS version 15 or higher to function properly. Experience the convenience of hands-free note-taking and stay organized effortlessly.

Description

Secretary42 is a desktop dictation tool aimed at professionals, writers, developers, and anyone seeking to convert spoken words into text while utilizing their preferred Mac or Windows applications. It features a customizable global hotkey to easily initiate and halt dictation; the integrated whisper.cpp engine performs local transcription with downloadable Whisper models and delivers the output to the active cursor, clipboard, or a designated file. Users can select models that strike a balance between transcription speed and accuracy and have the option to review, copy, or erase their locally saved transcription history. The application is particularly useful for composing emails, creating documents, jotting down notes, responding to support inquiries, logging issue reports, and drafting documentation. Dictation executes entirely on the device without reliance on cloud services, with internet connectivity only needed for checkout, license management, downloading models and the app, accessing support, and optional diagnostics. Secretary42 is compatible with macOS on Apple Silicon as well as Windows x64, making it versatile for a wide range of users. Additionally, its focus on local processing enhances data privacy and security for users concerned about cloud storage.
