Murmur

Murmur provides instant, local voice-to-text for Apple Silicon Macs, typing directly into any application via a global hotkey. Supporting 99 languages and over 30 transcription models, the software ensures your audio never leaves your device, maintaining total privacy. It is specifically optimized for macOS 15 or later, utilizing context-aware AI to adapt your dictation to the active window: preserving technical syntax in code editors while polishing prose in emails.

Beyond basic dictation, the tool handles full meeting recordings with speaker diarization, AI-generated summaries, and a built-in teleprompter. A one-time purchase secures a lifetime license for two Macs with no subscriptions, accounts, or tracking involved. While advanced AI cleanup requires an external API key or a local Ollama setup, the entire feature set is available to explore through a 7-day free trial.
