TongueType is a privacy-focused macOS voice dictation app that turns speech into text on-device using a local Whisper AI model.
Exemplary AI is a transcription and content-repurposing platform for long-form audio and video. Users upload a recording or import one, and Exemplary AI produces a transcript, then offers tools to convert that recording into subtitles, short clips, summaries, show notes, chapters, and blog posts. The transcription handles audio and video across a large number of languages and can generate subtitles and translations, making it usable for accessibility and multilingual distribution. Beyond raw transcription, the platform includes an AI writer and chat that work against the transcript so users can ask questions or generate written content from the conversation, plus lightweight video editing such as trimming, removing filler words, adding B-roll, and styling captions. Exemplary AI markets dedicated workflows for podcasts, webinars, and academic recordings, and the transcription and captioning features apply equally to recorded interviews and meetings. It is aimed at content creators, marketers, educators, and businesses that want to extract transcripts, captions, and repurposed assets from their recorded spoken content. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

TongueType is a voice dictation application for macOS that converts speech to text entirely on-device using a locally-run Whisper AI model, so audio never leaves the Mac. It lives in the menu bar with no dock icon, and works as a press-to-talk input method: the user holds a configurable hotkey (or uses a double-tap latch), speaks, and the transcribed text is inserted at the cursor in any application that accepts text input. Beyond live dictation, it can transcribe audio and video files (such as WAV, MP3, MP4, and MOV). It supports multiple languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, with automatic language detection, plus customizable post-processing rules, overlay appearance, and microphone options. Preferences can sync across Macs via iCloud. It requires macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon (M1 or later). The app is aimed at people who want faster text entry than typing, professionals needing quick transcription, and users with typing difficulties (arthritis, RSI, tremor, and similar accessibility needs).
