Plain dictation: fillers out, times and numbers right, typed where your cursor is.
Speak any of 24 languages. You see your words next to the English, then press Return.
Writing to someone in your own language? It stays in your language, tidied up.
Real results: each sentence was spoken by a Mac voice and written by Speaketti on the Mac, with no internet.
Speaketti hears which of 25 languages you're speaking and writes the English a colleague would write, not a word-for-word copy.

25 languages. Speaketti works out which one you're speaking.
One key from start to finish. Watch a German sentence go through it.
Anywhere you can type: mail, chat, docs, the browser.

while you talkI paid the invoice yesterday.
about a second laterA check before anything goes in, one small menu, and a history on your Mac. Nothing else to learn, nothing to set up.



Setup fetches everything Speaketti needs, once: speech recognition, translation and all 25 languages. After that it works even with the Wi‑Fi off.
The name it keeps getting wrong, the address you type ten times a day, the emoji you always send. Set them once; they work in every app and in both writing modes.
In History, tap the word it got wrong and type how it should look. Done for good.
Say a short phrase, get the whole thing: an address, a link, a sign-off.
Say the name, then “emoji”. Over 100 of them, and plain speech never turns into pictures.
Hold fn for a sentence. Double-tap for a long one, then tap once to finish.
Translations wait for Return. Esc drops them. English goes straight in.
While you talk, the recorder grows out of your MacBook's notch. Prefer it by your cursor? One switch.
Changed your mind after it went in? ⌘Z takes it back.
Every dictation is saved on this Mac, searchable, with the original next to the English.
um, so the launch is like on thursday→The launch is on Thursday.
Clean drops the ums and tidies numbers and dates. Exact keeps every word you said.
Your voice becomes text on your Mac and the audio is thrown away. Nothing you say is ever sent anywhere.
That's the whole list. None of it happens while you dictate.
Read the privacy policy →“De klant wil de presentatie een dag eerder zien.”→ The customer wants to see the presentation a day earlier.
Real screens from the app, nothing mocked up.

English speech goes straight in; only translations wait for you. Trust it and want to skip the check? Turn off “Check translations before inserting” in Settings. Already inserted? ⌘Z undoes it.
Hold Fn for a quick sentence and let go to insert. For longer dictation, double-tap Fn and talk freely; tap Fn once (or click the green button in the bubble) to insert. Esc cancels either way.
Intel Macs aren't supported.
The speech and translation models download once while you set Speaketti up, usually a minute or two. After that it works offline, and updates stay small. It needs about 1.3 GB of free space.
Download it, drag it into Applications and open it. A welcome window walks you through the rest: two permissions, the speech models (about 1 GB, once) and your first sentence. The setup guide shows each screen and fixes the common snags.
