Maker

📌

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Gabriel, the maker of dictate. I built dictate. because I was frustrated with how limited voice typing is on iOS. Apple's built-in dictation only works in some places, the accuracy isn't great, and there's no way to translate or format on the fly. So I built a keyboard replacement. dictate. is a custom iOS keyboard — once you enable it, it works in every app on your phone. Messages, WhatsApp, Mail, Notes, anywhere you type. Just tap the mic and speak. Under the hood, it uses advanced AI models for transcription, so the accuracy is significantly better than Apple's built-in option. You can also speak in one language and have it typed in another (real-time translation), and the AI handles punctuation and formatting automatically. It's free to download with 70 transcriptions/week. Pro unlocks unlimited transcriptions and the advanced features. I'm also working on a macOS version that works system-wide — same concept, speak anywhere on your Mac. Would love to hear your feedback! Happy to answer any questions.

Happy launch day @gabriel_alonso, the real-time translation feature sounds incredibly useful for international teams like ours.

Congrats @gabriel_alonso !

How does your transcription accuracy compare to Apple's native dictation (this is literally pain in the ass apples feature) and models like Whisper in real-world scenarios? Also, is the processing done on-device or via cloud?

@gabriel_alonso I've installed dictate, but I can't change the language from Portuguese to any other language. There is no Language option in my keyboard settings… I see on the screenshots in the wizard that it should appear under the ‘Full Access’ switch, but in my case, it’s not there.

OK, I skipped the Test step in the wizard and I can see language selector in the app config 👍

Interesting approach going mobile-first with voice typing. The challenge I've seen is accuracy drops significantly with form fields vs free text — how does it handle structured input like emails, phone numbers, dates?

Did you consider building this as a share sheet extension or Shortcut instead of a full keyboard replacement? Custom keyboards on iOS have always had a rough time with the Full Access permission. Users get nervous granting it even when the app isn't collecting anything.

Voice typing in iOS is very limited, especially for Polish, so I totally understand of the need for such solutions... good luck!
