Lispr has been free for everyone since launch. It now runs on two plans, and the way we split them says more about the product than the prices do.
The standard move with a free tier is to cut features. English only. Three languages instead of thirty. The formatting held back as the thing you pay for. The free version gets built to be annoying enough that you upgrade.
Lispr is a free voice dictation and translation app for Mac and Windows. Hold a key, speak, release. Your words land in whatever app your cursor is in. Speak in ~99 languages and switch mid-sentence. Hold your translation key as well, and the translation lands instead, in any of 32 languages. Median latency 346 ms. The mic is off until you hold the key, and we never store your audio. No account, no model download, free.
Take a look at my own numbers from the last three months: 167,820 words dictated! But what is the impact? An average person types around 45 words a minute and speaks around 150. So an hour of typing produces about 2,700 words, and an hour of talking produces about 9,000. Same hour, three times the output. I spend the difference on longer prompts and fuller answers to my team, and I didn't add another hour to my day to get there :)
My own numbers are the small story. Worldwide, people have run 683,838 phrases through Lispr and skipped about seven months of typing. Seven months! Counted in working hours that is 1,232 of them, one person sitting at a keyboard eight hours a day from January through to the end of July, and nobody had to be that person. Those hours went straight back into people's lives.
