Hold a key.
Speak. Done.
Your words land at the cursor, in whatever app you're already in — and never leave your Mac.
macOS 26 (Tahoe)·Apple silicon·Signed and notarized by Apple
Free to download. A licence key activates it — $60 for one Mac, $150 for three.
Hold the key
Or press ⌘fn to go hands-free. Both shortcuts are yours to change.
Say it
Audio streams into Apple's speech model while you are still talking.
Let go
Cleaned-up text appears at your cursor, usually with nothing left to wait for.
Pick what listening
looks like.
The indicator is the one part of WrapScribe you look at. Pick its style — and whether recording shows on screen at all.
Minimalist menu-bar band
A slim band beside the notch, showing just the waveform. It never covers your app's toolbar, and it is gone the moment you stop.
Floating pill
A capsule that floats above whatever you are working in, anchored at any of nine spots on screen.
Record with the menu bar only
NewA switch, not a style: while you record, nothing appears on screen — a red dot and a running timer in the menu bar are the whole of it. And since 1.3.1, every overlay stays out of screen recordings and shares entirely, whichever style you choose.
Five styles in one list, offered during setup and in Settings → Overlay: the notch also comes as a slim band beside it, or as a pill that drops just below. Give the notch an accent colour, put the floating pill at any of its nine anchors, or turn the whole thing down to nothing — and if you hide the menu bar icon on top of that, a recording has no visible indicator at all. The sounds still play.
Your words never
leave your Mac.
Not the audio. Not the transcript. Not the cleanup, and not the meeting notes.
Transcription runs on Apple's on-device speech model. Smart Cleanup and meeting notes run through Apple's on-device Foundation Models. There is no transcription API, no key to paste, and no endpoint on our side that could even receive what you said.
Nothing continues past this line. No upload. No API key. No endpoint that could receive them.
Stays on your Mac
- Recorded audio — never uploaded, ever
- Every transcript and your dictation history
- Meeting recordings and the notes made from them
- Your dictionary, snippets and transforms — the dictionary learns from what you dictate, so syncing it would mean uploading your words
Syncs to your account
- Daily word and dictation counts, for your stats and your streak
- Your preferences — shortcuts, sounds, overlay style, toggles
- Your email, a name for each activated Mac, and which key you redeemed
So if your licence covers more than one Mac, the second starts out configured the way you left the first. Secrets are stored only as hashes, and you can sign out any time from Settings → Account.
It fixes what speech
does to sentences.
Smart Cleanup runs on Apple's on-device Foundation Models.
What you said
um so let's push the launch to Thursday — no, Wednesday uh and tell the team this afternoon I guess
What WrapScribe typed
Let's push the launch to Wednesday and tell the team this afternoon.
Fillers go. Punctuation arrives. Self-corrections resolve, so “Thursday — no, Wednesday” leaves only Wednesday standing. If Apple Intelligence is switched off, still downloading, or simply slow, a deterministic Basic mode takes over automatically and ships your text regardless: short dictations get a 2.5-second cleanup budget, longer ones up to four. Dictation is never held hostage by cleverness.
Say what you want
done with it.
Begin a dictation with “Hey WrapScribe” and the rest becomes an instruction, not text.
The phrase is removed, the answer is pasted. It reads the app you are in and your recent text as context — and, if you let it, the text on screen, so “reply to this email” knows what the email said. All of it locally, through Apple Intelligence.
Anything you ask for twice becomes a Transform: your own named rewrite instruction. Say its name to apply it to what you just dictated, or give it a global shortcut and it rewrites whatever text you have selected, anywhere.
Notes that know
who was talking.
Your microphone and the system audio, captured as two separate tracks.
Open a call in Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex or FaceTime — or any of them in a browser tab — and WrapScribe offers to record it. Nothing ever starts on its own; you always click.
It notices, it asks, and it never records on its own.
A meeting app takes the microphone, or a call opens in the browser you are already in — and this appears, under the notch or wherever your pill sits. Ignore it and it leaves by itself after twenty seconds. Nothing is captured until you click.
Launch review — moving to Wednesday
42 min · You and 3 others · Notes generated on this Mac
- The team agreed to slip the launch by a day to finish onboarding copy, and to tell customers the same afternoon.
- Launch moves from Thursday to Wednesday the following week.
- Pricing page ships unchanged; the FAQ gets the rewrite instead.
- Priya — redraft the onboarding copy by Monday.
- Sam — send the customer note once the date is locked.
Two tracks through a Core Audio process tap is what makes “you” versus “them” reliable rather than guesswork. Word-level timestamps let you scrub the recording and watch the transcript keep pace; speakers rename to real names; the notes are yours to edit and export as Markdown. Detection works from a meeting app or browser holding the microphone, and browsers are discovered from the system — so Chrome, Safari, Arc, Dia, Edge and Brave all work without a list to maintain.
Select any text.
Fix it where it sits.
Highlight something in any app and a small assistant appears.
Select text in a field you can type in and a small button appears just past it. Fix the grammar, polish the tone, translate it, or run one of your own transforms. Type an instruction instead and it opens a short chat about the selection — every reply previews its change before it replaces anything. If there is nowhere to write back, it copies instead and tells you so.
Escape no longer costs
you a paragraph.
Cancelled a dictation you meant to keep? It is still there.
used to be the end of it. Now it is a second thought.
Hitting cancel used to throw away everything you had just said. It does not any more. Anything longer than two seconds is kept, filed in your history as dismissed, and the overlay tells you so on its way out — Dismissed — recover from the Dashboard. One click there re-transcribes it under your current settings and puts the result on your clipboard, ready to paste wherever you actually meant it to go. Like everything else in your history, it never left the Mac in the first place.
Your language,
whichever one it is.
Apple's model covers around thirty locales. For everything else, WrapScribe downloads one that also runs locally.
Pick your language in Settings and WrapScribe shows which local models can handle it, with sizes and download state. Download one, switch between them, delete the ones you stopped using. Whichever you pick, the audio stays exactly where it was recorded.
And the small things
you would miss.
A timer where you can see it
The menu bar counts your recording up as it happens. Prefer a clean bar? The icon hides entirely and the shortcuts keep working.
Two ways to see it listening
A minimalist band beside the menu bar showing just the waveform, or a floating pill you can anchor at any of nine positions on screen — in glass or classic, at whatever transparency you like.
Snippets
Say a trigger phrase mid-sentence and a whole block of saved text takes its place. Addresses, disclaimers, the paragraph you retype every week.
Voice macros
An exact phrase, an exact result. Macros skip cleanup entirely and paste your text verbatim — for the things that must come out character-perfect.
A dictionary that learns
Teach it names, products and jargon. Or fix a word by hand and WrapScribe quietly notices the retype — see it a few times and the right spelling becomes yours, without ever asking.
Transforms on a shortcut
Name your own rewrite instructions and bind each to a global key. Press it and whatever you have selected, in any app, comes back rewritten.
Per-app writing styles
Write an instruction for Slack and another for Mail, or just set the register — casual, balanced or formal — per kind of app. Code and terminals always stay technical.
Your clipboard survives
The transcript borrows your clipboard to paste, then hands it straight back. Copy something else in the meantime and WrapScribe leaves it alone.
Nowhere to paste? A card
Dictate with no text field in front of you and the words arrive on a small card instead, ready to copy — rather than disappearing.
Hold, or go hands-free
Hold fn while you talk, or tap ⌘fn and walk away from the keyboard. Cancel and copy-again get their own keys, and every one of them is yours to change.
Stats and streaks
Words dictated, sessions, the run of days you have kept up. Daily counts sync, so if your licence runs on more than one Mac they share a single streak. Transcripts never do.
Updates from inside the app
Settings → Check for Updates fetches the new build and refuses to install it unless the signature matches the copy you are already running. If anything goes wrong, it rolls itself back.
What you need.
A recent Mac, and one key.
WrapScribe is built on SpeechAnalyzer, the speech framework Apple introduced in Tahoe. It does not exist on earlier versions, so there is no way to support them.
Apple Intelligence runs the cleanup and the meeting notes, and the faster downloadable speech models are built for the Neural Engine. That is what keeps transcription several times quicker than real time.
A one-time purchase — Basic activates one Mac, Pro three. Paste the key into a single field, and that Mac stays activated offline, indefinitely. Every download is signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple.
Buy it once.
Keep it.

Both plans need macOS 26 (Tahoe) on Apple silicon. Prices are in US dollars; tax is added at checkout where it applies.
Payment is handled by Dodo Payments, our merchant of record. Your key appears on screen the moment the payment clears, and we email you the same one. Nothing but that activation ever leaves your Mac — see Terms and Refunds.
Questions.
Does anything I say get uploaded?
No. Audio and transcripts never leave your Mac — there is no endpoint on our side that accepts them. Activating WrapScribe creates an account, and that account holds your email, a name for each Mac, per-day word and dictation counts, and your preferences. Nothing else.
Why does it need macOS 26?
WrapScribe is built on SpeechAnalyzer, the speech framework Apple introduced in macOS 26 (Tahoe). It's the reason transcription is both fast and fully on-device, and it doesn't exist on earlier versions — so there's no way to support them.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Once your Mac is activated and your language model is downloaded, dictation, cleanup and meeting notes all work with no connection at all.
What about languages Apple doesn't support?
Pick your language and WrapScribe shows which local models can handle it, with sizes and download state. Whisper covers around 99 languages including Hindi, Gujarati, Tamil and Bengali; Parakeet is the faster option for European languages. Both run on your Mac.
Is it a subscription?
No — you buy it once. Basic is $60 and activates one Mac: dictation everywhere, Smart Cleanup, your dictionary, snippets, every overlay, and your history. Pro is $150 and activates three Macs, adding meeting recording with transcripts and notes, the selection assistant, transforms, and per-app writing styles. Updates are free on both, and there is a 14-day refund policy. See both plans ›
What happens after I pay?
Checkout hands you straight to a page with your licence key on it, and the same key goes to your email. Download WrapScribe, open it, paste the key, click Activate — that Mac is then activated offline, indefinitely. Payment is processed by Dodo Payments as merchant of record; if anything goes wrong, email support@wrapscribe.com with your payment id.
When can I get it?
Right now — grab it from the download page. It installs in one drag; you'll need a licence key to activate it.
