Dictation

Talk. It appears.

Press a key and speak. Your words type straight into any app: email, editor, chat. Watch them land live as you talk, or all at once when you stop.

Generate with Flow

Say “Hey Flow.”
It does the rest.

Say it, then ask in your own words: reply to a message, write an email, draft a prompt. Flow does the work and drops the result where you’re typing. Rename the trigger to anything you like.

Translate

Speak any language.
Type English.

Speak in whatever comes naturally (Spanish, Hindi, French, Japanese) and it lands in clean English, right where you’re typing.

Runs fully on your device.

AI cleanup

Speak messy.
Paste polished.

Say it with all the “um”s and false starts. Cleanup strips the filler, fixes grammar, and matches the tone you pick, so it reads the way you meant it.

Pick a tone: Professional, Friendly, Concise, or your own.

The assistant

A real assistant,
one hotkey away.

Ask by voice or text and get a streaming answer in a floating panel. It remembers the chat, then collapses when you’re done.

Left Ctrl + Left Alt to summon it from any app

And it talks back.

Hear answers out loud, with the pace and reply length up to you.

Screen-aware

It sees what you see.

Ask about the error, chart, or email in front of you. It takes one look at your screen, then answers with that context. You decide when it looks.

  • Tell it to look and the answer uses what’s on your screen.
  • Let it decide and it glances only when a question needs it.
  • Or tell it to skip and it works from your words alone. Nothing captured.

It learns how you like to work.

Private memory and profiles for the different parts of your day.

Remembers you, on your device.

Optional, editable, and off until you turn it on. It helps the assistant write in your style, all on your device.

Different jobs, different voices.

Switch between a warm companion, a quick-answer mode, or your own. Each with its own voice and reply length.

More than dictation.
Still free.

The popular voice tools are closed and paid. SpeakoFlow does more, and its source code is yours to inspect.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Everything people ask before downloading. Still curious? The GitHub discussions are open.

Yes. SpeakoFlow is completely open source under the MIT license, so you can always use it for free.

Your voice is transcribed on your machine and never uploaded. The assistant only contacts the model provider you choose, which can be a fully local one.

No. You can run entirely on the built-in local model. Prefer a cloud provider? Plug in your own key. Your choice.

Say it at the start of a dictation to turn it into a request instead of plain text (reply to a message, write an email, answer a question), and Flow pastes the result. You can rename it, and it is not an always-listening wake word: nothing triggers until you start dictating.

Yes. AI cleanup removes filler, fixes grammar, and can reshape your words into a tone like Professional, Friendly, or Concise. It is optional and runs only when you turn it on.

Flow pastes finished writing where your cursor is. The assistant is a separate panel you can chat with and get spoken answers from, without leaving the app you are in.

Windows, macOS, and Linux.

SpeakoFlow builds on Handy's excellent local dictation core and adds the assistant panel, screen vision, spoken answers, personal memory, and profiles. Full credit to Handy below.
