Inktyper
Hold-to-talk voice typing for Mac — on-device & private
InkTyper is hold-to-talk voice typing for Mac: hold Option, speak, release, and text appears at your cursor. SenseVoice runs on-device (free, offline, private). Bring your own OpenAI Whisper or SiliconFlow key for cloud accuracy, no subscription. Strong on mixed Chinese-English. One-time Pro + optional AI Plus. Free to start, macOS 14.6+.
Two things worth flagging.
First, InkTyper is direct-only — no Mac App Store. That's deliberate: no 30% platform tax, no sandbox crippling the experience, and faster iteration without
app-review gates. For a power-user dictation tool, staying outside the walled garden is the product, not a limitation — full-strength hotkeys, on-device
MLX streaming, and deep integrations all ship uncut.
Second, on execution: I'm one person augmented by AI tooling (Claude Code, Cursor), shipping a production native macOS app with on-device ML and
multi-provider cloud integration solo. If the thesis holds, the same lean model scales the roadmap far beyond what a solo founder could traditionally build.
