Monologue's visuals reminds me of @Winamp — which is great for a smarter voice dictation app!

I also appreciate that you can run transcription entirely locally — using Small, Medium, or Large models:

@chrismessina Absolutely, having a way to run things locally = non-negotiable
also: Winamp! haven't heard that name in a long time! but yes, now I cannot unsee the similarities!

Yeah, it really kicks the llama's ass!

Hi Product Hunt!

I’m Naveen, and we’re excited to launch Monologue—effortless voice dictation so you can work 3x faster.


The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. The shortest distance between your thoughts and the page is Monologue.

We built Monologue so you can communicate at the speed of thought and express ideas as naturally as you think them.


Here’s how it works:

Auto formatting: Monologue turns your scattered thoughts into clean, perfectly formatted text—removing fillers, adding punctuation, fixing spelling, and even formatting text into lists or paragraphs.

Modes: Every app needs its own personality. Your Slack messages shouldn’t sound like your investor updates. Monologue has built-in and customized modes to help you adapt automatically.

Auto dictionary: Speak naturally with your own vocabulary. Monologue will add any unique language to its dictionary automatically.

Custom snippets: Save your go-to lines like a calendar link, phone number, or thank-you note, so you never have to repeat yourself.


Since our first beta, Monologue has transcribed over 12 million words across 300,000 dictations, saving users a combined 100 days of time.


We believe your ideas deserve to hit the page as fast as you think them. Let us know what you think or what you’d like to see next.

Congrats on your launch!🚀

It's true that there are already many other voice to text apps out there, but I really like the UI, movement, and clever settings of the apps they create. Of course, Monologue also has the easiest voice-to-text interface of any voice-to-text app I've tried, and the UI is interesting.

Monologue sounds awesome, love how it just gets what I’m trying to say and makes everything look clean without extra effort. Excited to try it out for my daily notes!

Victor Stepanov

Congrats on the launch! Monologue helps me record my immediate inspirations and deal with daily email responses, etc. LLM can further help save contextual memory and improve formatting, which is very convenient!

I've been using Monologue since it was in early access and I'm in the top 2.8% of users!

Victor Stepanov

@dannyaziz97 top 3% whoa, I'm barely breaking into top 10%

Alex Burlis

I tried it out already. It's a great transcription app and Naveen seems like just the right guy to build this. Looking forward to see where this goes and can recommend to try it!

@alexburlis Thank you alex!!

I've using Monologue for a couple of weeks and think it's pretty slick. It's handy to have the auto-fill chat box option, but I'm getting the most value out of being able to come back to my thoughts later.

It's hard out here not remembering your internal dialogue hours later. 🤣 Monologue fixes that.

I’ve been using Monologue for a couple of weeks and love how it shifts the messaging style to fit context. I love how fun it makes the experience too. I’ve tried other similar tools and have stuck to Monologue. Thank you for creating this!
Victor Stepanov

@janelsgm thank you for your feedback! it's super nice to hear that you love using Monologue and really turning it into a habit. just out of curiosity, have you tried creating any modes specifically for your use cases?
