VoiceInk

VoiceInk란 무엇인가요?

VoiceInk is a dictation app for macOS, with an iOS companion app, built for writing by voice across apps and workflows. It combines local transcription, optional AI enhancement, and app-specific modes so users can speak naturally and turn speech into usable text with minimal manual cleanup.

The product is positioned around privacy and transparency: transcription runs locally on the device, cloud enhancement is optional, and the source code is public. The site also frames VoiceInk as a lifetime purchase rather than a subscription, with one-time pricing on the pricing page.
