Privacy

Your voice stays on your Mac.

Private by default

Transcription, your custom dictionary, filler word removal, and per-app settings all run entirely on your Mac. No uploads, no analytics, no telemetry. Your voice data never leaves your device.

AI features are completely optional

FowlVoice works fully without AI. If you want AI editing and answers, bring your own OpenRouter API key or ChatGPT Plus/Pro subscription. You control what leaves your Mac and what doesn’t.

Working toward fully on-device AI

We’re actively exploring the best open-source on-device models so every AI feature can run locally. They’re not fast enough yet, but fully on-device AI—zero cloud, zero latency—is the goal we’re building toward.

Process

Up and running in 30 seconds.

Download

Drag to Applications. Grant microphone and accessibility access. Done in 30 seconds.

Speak

Hold the Globe key (or your custom hotkey). Start talking. The orb listens.

Done

Release the key. Formatted text appears in your active app. That's it.
