## How do I dictate into any Mac app?

Set the Talkie hotkey once, then speak into any app. Talkie enters the speech in the active app and stores the capture in a searchable local library.

## What can Talkie do with a voice capture?

A capture can become a note, a draft, a search, or the start of a workflow. Talkie supports Mac hotkey dictation, voice memos, search, workflows, and structured CLI output.

## How can I find a voice note later?

Talkie stores the transcript, time, app, and project context with each capture so it stays searchable.

## Where does Talkie store voice data?

Talkie stores recordings and transcripts on your devices. Optional sync uses your iCloud account. External models are opt-in and use keys that you provide.

## How much does Talkie cost?

The current Talkie for Mac build is free. A 7-day free trial and $39 USD one-time Mac license are planned. The trial and checkout are not active yet. Talkie Phone and the Apple Watch app are free.
