Scripts read/write directly - no API.
Execute at the
speed of thought.
Speaking is the most natural way to express complex thoughts. Talkie turns your voice into text instantly, so you can capture ideas at the speed you think them.
Speed
We speak at 150 words per minute but type at 40. Voice capture lets you get thoughts out before they evolve or fade.
4x Faster Capture
Rest Your Eyes
Look away from the screen while you speak. Mid-length thoughts flow better when you're not staring at a cursor waiting for words.
Natural Expression
Ecosystem
Capture on iPhone or Watch, then continue on Mac with workflows that turn speech into action.
Memo → Workflow → Action
Lives in your menu bar. Works in any app.
Work is changing fast,
and we're leaning
into it.
For the first time in our careers, we can turn ideas into action at the speed of the tools around us.
It's the age of AI. Typing every idea by hand is no longer required.
You get to talk, move faster, and actually enjoy the upgrade.
How It Works
Hold the Hotkey
Press and hold your configured key (default: Right Option). Recording starts instantly. No click, no menu.
Speak Your Mind
Talk naturally. A subtle HUD appears. Your original app stays in focus. You never leave what you were doing.
Release to Transcribe
Let go of the key. On-device AI transcribes your speech in about a second. Nothing leaves your Mac.
Text Appears
Your transcription is pasted directly where your cursor was, or copied to clipboard. You're already back to work.

Ideas → Action
Every bit of friction between thought and capture is a chance for an idea to vanish. Here are a few ways Talkie gets used in real work.
While Coding
"Alright, thinking out loud: first fix the auth flow, then clean up these tests, then rename this module…"
Keep a running stream of code notes without leaving your editor.
Email Drafts
"Hey Sarah, quick update on the launch. We're on track for Friday, but we need a final sign-off on pricing…"
Dictate the rough draft, then tweak tone instead of typing from scratch.
Meeting Notes
"Key decisions: ship v1 as-is, move analytics to next sprint. Action items: John owns rollout, I own bug triage…"
Capture the debrief right after the call while it's still fresh.
Context Switching
"Where I left off: debugging the memory leak in the worker pool, next step is to isolate the new job type…"
Leave yourself a breadcrumb so you can drop back into deep work fast.
Draft a Blog Post
"Title idea: Why I stopped writing specs by hand. Intro: I used to… now I just…"
Talk through the messy first draft instead of staring at a blank page.
Creative Briefs
"Visual direction: dark background, single accent color, feels like a focused tool not a dashboard. References: Linear, Raycast…"
Capture nuance and small details before they slip away.
Features
Hold-to-Talk
No buttons to click. Hold a hotkey to record, release to transcribe. Builds muscle memory in minutes.
Return to Origin
Talkie remembers which app and text field you were in. Text gets pasted right back where you were working.
48-Hour Echoes
Your transcriptions are stored locally for 48 hours. Quick access to recent captures, no permanent clutter.
Minimal HUD
A subtle floating pill shows recording state. Expands on hover for details, disappears when not needed.
Smart Routing
Auto-paste into text fields, or copy to clipboard for non-editable contexts. Intelligently adapts.
Always Ready
Lives silently in your menu bar. No app to launch, no window to find. Ready the instant you need it.
Your voice stays on your Mac.
No audio leaves your computer. No cloud processing. No API keys. No cloud accounts.
