Reviewers say Willow Voice is unusually accurate, fast, and easy to fold into daily work, especially for writing in Slack, Gmail, Notion, coding tools, and any Mac app. Many praise its ability to clean up rambling speech, preserve context, and reduce or replace large amounts of typing with little editing. Users also highlight responsive support and strong privacy posture. The main complaints are occasional slow responses, an annoying inactivity notification that cannot be disabled, limits on heavy free-tier use, and imperfect handling of non-English dictation.
Speed + accuracy is the right pair to obsess over — most dictation tools nail one and butcher the other. In my world (voice agents) the make-or-break is proper nouns and numbers: a model that writes beautiful prose but drops a digit in a phone number is useless in a real workflow. Curious where Frontier Pro lands there — is the accuracy jump mostly on natural speech, or does it hold up on names, addresses, and long strings of numbers where most models fall apart? That's the part I'd pay for. Congrats on shipping 🚀

@david_marko Appreciate it, David!
Voice tools are only useful when they feel fast and natural. Curious to try this for messy thoughts and longer writing sessions.

@monster1x We're great for that! We specifically train our model to deal with messy thoughts and longer five-minute sessions

@monster1x It's not just fast, it's blazingly fast, natural, and accurate. Tell us what you think when you try it!
giving away Frontier Mini unlimited and free is a strong move given how many dictation apps gate accuracy behind a paywall. removing filler words automatically is the detail that actually matters day to day, half the pain of dictation tools is the cleanup afterward not the transcription itself
Getting past the “this feels weird” stage seems like the bigger challenge than model accuracy itself. Once people start speaking by default instead of typing, going back probably feels painfully slow. Curious if you’ve seen a clear moment where users make that switch, or if it’s still mostly a habit-building journey. Congrats on the launch!
I'm really looking forward to trying out the Pro version! Will I need to install a newer version of the app, or will it be pushed out automatically? I'm currently running version 2.3.0. Is that enough?
I would like to know how to upgrade from my current Willow version 2.3.0 to this new Willow Frontier Pro. That's not very clear from your email or website.
