Superwhisper

What it is for

Superwhisper is a local-first dictation and meeting app: it turns voice into text in any field, and on the Mac it opens a meeting window with a live transcript, private notes, and a summary. Use it when the job is on-device notes you can keep offline, not when you need a hosted CRM bot.

It is not open source. Free exists (local Whisper models). Pro is the first public paid card.

What makes it unique: the cover is Superwhisper’s official meeting-notes view from the docs — Weekly product sync with Summary, Decisions, Action items, and Private Notes beside a speaker-labeled transcript (You / Priya / Jordan).

Key features

• Meeting notes — summary, decisions, action items, private notes, transcript (cover).
• Bot-free capture — Mac meeting window; live transcript and speaker names.
• Local models — unlimited dictation on Free with on-device Whisper.
• Pro extras — cloud models, AI modes, file transcription, Meetings after the word trial.
• One license — Pro covers unlimited Macs / PCs plus your phone when you buy on the site.

Who it's for

Best fit: Mac users who want meetings to stay on the machine and will buy Pro when the 3,000-word Pro trial ends.

Poor fit: people who want a hosted Notetaker with MCP (Wispr Flow) or a calendar bot archive (Granola is bot-free but cloud-hosted).
