Write at the speed of speech. In any Windows app.

Hold a key, talk, release — your words appear right where your cursor is. Email, Slack, your IDE, your browser. Cleaned up by AI before they land.

$19 once · No subscription · No account

macOS, iOS, and Android versions are in development.

Your voice never leaves your computer

The built-in local recognition engine runs fully offline — free and unlimited, forever. In cloud mode, audio is processed and not stored afterward.

No subscription. No account.

$19 once — yours forever. Need more cloud accuracy? Buy hours as you go; they never expire. No sign-up, no password, no email in anyone's database — your balance is tied to your license key. There's nothing to leak.

How it works

1. Hold the key.

Right Alt by default — remappable to anything.

2. Say it.

VoxDrot listens while the key is down.

3. Release.

The text is already in your app, right at the cursor.

Prefer hands-free? Tap once to start recording, tap again to stop.

Built for how you actually work

Works everywhere

Types into any Windows application — not into its own little window. If you can put a cursor there, you can dictate there.

One key, zero context switching

No app to open, no record button to find. Hold-to-talk or tap-to-toggle, over any program, from the system tray.

Text comes out ready

AI post-processing cleans your words before they land: fix grammar, strip the "umms," translate to another language, soften the tone, or run your own prompts ("format as a business email").

Clean up Fix grammar Translate Make it polite Custom prompt

Works out of the box

Every license includes 5 hours of cloud transcription. Download, activate, dictate — no API keys, no setup.

Honest hour economics

About $0.50 per hour of recognized speech, counted in seconds of actual audio. You pay for use, not for the calendar.

Bring your own key

Already have an API key? Plug in OpenAI, Groq, or xAI (Grok) and pay the provider directly — your key stays encrypted on your device.

One price. Yours forever.

Privacy that's engineered, not promised

VoxDrot is built so that trust doesn't depend on a policy page. The architecture does the promising.

  • In local mode, audio never leaves your machine — there is nothing to intercept, log, or subpoena.
  • In cloud mode, audio is not stored after processing.
  • Your API keys (BYOK) are encrypted with Windows DPAPI on your device; BYOK and local mode never touch our servers.
  • On our side, license keys are stored only as SHA-256 hashes; your device identifier is a random GUID, not a hardware fingerprint.

Bring your own key: OpenAI, Groq, or xAI (Grok) — your choice.

Questions, answered

Do I need an internet connection?+

No. The local engine works fully offline. Cloud mode and AI post-processing need a connection.

Where does my voice go?+

In local mode — nowhere; recognition happens on your machine. In cloud mode, audio is sent for processing and is not stored afterward. With BYOK, audio goes directly to the provider you chose.

What happens when my cloud hours run out?+

Nothing breaks. The local engine keeps working free and unlimited. Buy an hour pack whenever you want cloud accuracy back — hours never expire.

How many devices can I use?+

Up to 3 devices per license.

How do refunds work?+

Full refund within 30 days, no questions asked. Email us or use the Lemon Squeezy order link.

Which versions of Windows are supported?+

Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit).

Can I use my own API key?+

Yes — OpenAI, Groq, or xAI (Grok). Your key is encrypted locally with DPAPI and never sent to our servers.

Stop typing. Start talking.
