Why people choose Speaky

Most speech recognition software sends your audio to cloud servers the moment you press record — your voice data goes to Google, Microsoft, or Amazon. Speaky is different. It runs completely offline using Whisper AI, processing everything locally on your Windows PC. No internet connection needed after installation, no data ever collected, no subscription fees.

Whether you're a writer or blogger dictating drafts, a developer who wants hands-free coding notes, a student taking lecture notes, a content creator scripting videos, someone with RSI or accessibility needs, or simply anyone who values privacy — Speaky works for you. It types directly into any app: Word, Slack, Notion, VS Code, your browser, anywhere.

Searching for the best offline speech to text for Windows, a Dragon NaturallySpeaking alternative without the $699 price tag, or a private voice typing tool that never phones home? Speaky is a one-time purchase of £25 with lifetime updates, 90+ languages, and offline translation built in.

Got questions? I've got answers.

Why does Windows flag the installer?

Totally normal! Speaky is a new app. Windows Defender flags anything it hasn't seen a million times yet. Just click "More info" → "Run anyway" and you're good.

Does Speaky need internet?

Nope. Zero, zilch. Everything runs on your machine. Airplane mode? No problem.

What languages are supported?

90+ languages — English, Spanish, French, German, Russian, and way more. Full list in the app settings.

How does Speaky compare to Dragon NaturallySpeaking?

Dragon is powerful but costs $699+, requires cloud processing, and doesn't do translation. Speaky is £25 one-time, completely offline, and translates between 90+ languages. For privacy-conscious users on Windows, Speaky is the better fit.

How is Speaky different from Google Voice Typing?

Google Voice Typing is cloud-based — your voice data gets sent to Google's servers. Speaky processes everything locally on your computer. Zero data leaves your machine. Plus, Speaky works in any application, not just the browser.

Can Speaky replace Windows built-in dictation?

Yes. Windows Dictation sends data to Microsoft and has limited language support. Speaky is completely offline with 90+ languages, smart cleanup, custom vocabulary, and translation built in.

Is it really a one-time payment?

Yep. Pay once, own it forever. No subscriptions, no surprise charges. I hate those too.
