    From the README

    Voice to text app for macOS to transcribe what you say to text almost instantly

    VoiceInk is a native macOS application that transcribes what you say to text almost instantly. You can find all the information and download the app from here.

    After dedicating the past 5 months to developing this app, I've decided to open source it for the greater good.

    My goal is to make it the most efficient and privacy-focused voice-to-text solution for macOS that is a joy to use. While the source code is now open for experienced developers to build and contribute, purchasing a license helps support continued development and gives you access to automatic updates, priority support, and upcoming features.
