Private — stays on your Mac
Audio never leaves your device

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Works everywhere

Slack, Notion, email, terminal — if you can type there, TurboSpeak works there. No copy-paste required.

Blazing fast

Your Mac's chip does all the work. Results appear before you've even lifted your finger.

Totally private

Your voice never leaves your device. No servers. No accounts. No data collection. Ever.

23 languages

Switch between English, Mandarin, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, and 17 more — instantly.

Always listening, never intrusive

TurboSpeak lives quietly in your menu bar. It only activates when you hold your chosen key.

Your shortcut, your rules

Assign any key or key combination as your push-to-talk trigger. Works exactly the way you want.

Three steps. That's it.

No setup. No training. No account. Open the app, hold a key, speak.

01

Hold your key

Press and hold your chosen shortcut key — anywhere on your Mac, in any app.

02

Speak naturally

Talk at your normal pace. TurboSpeak listens and processes your voice entirely on your device.

03

Words appear instantly

Release the key. Your transcribed text is typed directly into whatever you're working on.

Listening...

Fast enough to feel like magic.

TurboSpeak uses your Mac's dedicated AI hardware — the same chip that powers Face ID and Siri — to transcribe speech in real time. No internet connection required.
