Superwhisper is a system-wide voice-to-text dictation application for macOS, Windows, and iOS, built by SuperUltra, Inc., a bootstrapped Toronto company founded by Neil Chudleigh.[^1][^2] The app runs OpenAI's [whisper](/wiki/whisper) speech-recognition models locally on the user's device, layering an optional language-model post-processing stage that cleans up, reformats, or translates the transcribed text.[^3][^4] Its defining feature is a "modes" architecture in which each mode bundles a speech model, a language model, a system prompt, and a set of actions tuned for a specific context such as coding, email, or chat.[^4][^5] Released in August 2023, Superwhisper has become one of the most widely used AI dictation tools in the Apple developer community, with paying users at companies including Meta, [OpenAI](/wiki/openai), Coinbase, and Dropbox.[^1] It competes with MacWhisper, Aiko, Whispering, and Wispr Flow in the emerging market for [speech recognition](/wiki/speech_recognition) productivity tools.[^6][^7]

## History

### Origins and macOS launch

Neil Chudleigh, a co-founder of the Toronto-based affiliate-marketing platform PartnerStack, started building Superwhisper in mid-2023 as a side project.[^1][^2] He had become frustrated with the accuracy and reliability of Apple's built-in macOS dictation, which required explicit punctuation commands and worked inconsistently across applications.[^3] After OpenAI released the [Whisper](/wiki/whisper) speech-recognition models in 2022, Georgi Gerganov's whisper.cpp port made it possible to run the large models efficiently on [Apple Silicon](/wiki/apple_silicon) hardware, executing the encoder on the [Apple Neural Engine](/wiki/apple_neural_engine) for substantial speedups.[^14] Chudleigh combined whisper.cpp with a small menu-bar app that captured audio via a global keyboard shortcut, ran the Whisper model locally, and pasted the resulting text into whichever application held focus.[^3]

The app was posted to Hacker News as "Show HN: superwhisper" on 21 August 2023.[^3] The initial release supported the standard Whisper model sizes (tiny, base, small, medium, and large-v2), was English-only at launch, and offered the smaller models for free while gating the larger and multilingual variants behind a paid tier.[^3] The Product Hunt launch followed shortly after, attracting 234 upvotes.[^15]

### Modes and language-model post-processing

The two features that distinguished Superwhisper from generic Whisper wrappers arrived in late 2023. Version 1.17.0, released on 24 November 2023, introduced experimental language-model post-processing, letting the app feed raw transcripts into a chat model with a user-defined prompt.[^4] Version 1.19.0, released on 10 December 2023, generalized that idea into the modes feature: a mode bundles a speech model, an optional post-processing language model, a system prompt, a target language, and an output action (paste, copy, translate, etc.) into a single configuration that the user can switch between with a hotkey.[^4]

In January 2024, version 1.23.0 added cloud language-model providers, allowing Pro users to route post-processing through hosted models from [OpenAI](/wiki/openai), [Anthropic](/wiki/anthropic), and [Groq](/wiki/groq_hardware) in addition to running smaller LLMs locally.[^4][^7] Subsequent versions expanded the speech-model lineup to include Whisper large-v3 and the faster Whisper large-v3-turbo, plus distilled variants and on-device LLMs such as Llama, Mistral, Phi, and DeepSeek for users who wanted both transcription and post-processing to remain on-device.[^7][^4]

### iOS keyboard

Superwhisper for iOS launched on 17 April 2024, primarily as a custom keyboard extension that any other app can invoke through the iOS keyboard switcher.[^8] Holding the keyboard's record button captures audio, releases it, and pastes the transcribed text into the active field, mimicking the macOS hold-to-talk workflow.[^10] Apple's sandboxing rules constrain what iOS keyboards can do, so the iOS app exposes a smaller subset of modes than the macOS version, runs a compact Whisper model on-device for low latency, and routes more capable post-processing through optional cloud models.[^10][^16] The iOS app is rated 4.4 out of 5 across 773 reviews on the United States App Store and is published by SuperUltra, Inc.[^10]

### Windows

A Windows version had been the most-requested feature on the company's public feedback board since 2024.[^17] SuperUltra announced internal Windows development on 17 February 2025, ran a closed beta during the spring, and shipped version 1.0.0 to the public on 26 November 2025.[^9] The Windows build preserves the macOS feature set where the platform allows, including global hotkeys, mode switching, on-device Whisper inference, and Parakeet support; integration with iOS-only Apple frameworks (Services menu, Apple Shortcuts) does not apply, and accessibility-API context capture uses Windows UI Automation rather than the macOS accessibility framework.[^9][^4]

### Company growth

The company was incorporated as SuperUltra, Inc. and is bootstrapped, with no outside investment as of May 2026.[^7][^1] By early 2026 Chudleigh told The Globe and Mail the company had "hundreds of thousands of weekly active users" and "seven-figure" annual revenue, hired its first employee in August 2025, and operated with six full-time staff plus five contractors out of Toronto.[^1] Customers cited by the company included engineers, designers, and writers at Meta, [OpenAI](/wiki/openai), Coinbase, and Dropbox.[^1]

## Architecture

### Local speech recognition

Superwhisper's macOS engine is built on whisper.cpp, Georgi Gerganov's C/C++ port of the [Whisper](/wiki/whisper) model that runs efficiently on consumer hardware and uses Core ML to dispatch the encoder onto the [Apple Neural Engine](/wiki/apple_neural_engine) on [Apple Silicon](/wiki/apple_silicon) Macs.[^14] The app ships multiple Whisper sizes branded as Fast, Nano, Standard, Pro, Ultra V3, and Ultra V3 Turbo, corresponding roughly to the tiny, base, small, medium, large-v3, and large-v3-turbo variants of the upstream model.[^7] Whisper large-v3-turbo is Superwhisper's recommended default; the upstream model runs roughly eight times faster than large-v3 with a word-error-rate difference of about 0.39 percentage points, making it usable for interactive dictation on a recent MacBook.[^18]

In 2025 Superwhisper added support for [NVIDIA](/wiki/nvidia)'s Parakeet model family. Parakeet is a CTC/RNN-T-based ASR model trained by the NVIDIA NeMo team that, on benchmarks, runs roughly an order of magnitude faster than Whisper large-v3 with comparable accuracy on English audio.[^13] Superwhisper's macOS changelog records Parakeet's debut in version 2.0.0 on 10 July 2025, initially as an English-only model for Pro users; a multilingual Parakeet V3 model became available shortly after NVIDIA's release.[^4] On Windows, Parakeet was promoted from experimental to general release in version 1.2.5 on 19 February 2026.[^9]

The official documentation lists "Distil-Whisper" variants alongside Whisper and Parakeet as on-device options, referring to the distilled Whisper models published by Hugging Face that trade a small accuracy loss for substantially smaller model size and lower memory usage on resource-constrained devices.[^7] Users who add their own API keys can also point the speech stage at hosted ASR services including [Deepgram](/wiki/deepgram) Nova and [ElevenLabs](/wiki/elevenlabs) Scribe.[^7]

### Modes

A mode in Superwhisper is a named pipeline that specifies, at minimum, which speech model to use, which language to expect, and which output action to apply.[^5] Optional fields include a language-model post-processor (local or cloud), a system prompt that instructs the language model how to rewrite the transcript, a list of vocabulary additions or replacements (for example, mapping the spoken phrase "my email" to a literal address), and the applications in which the mode should auto-activate.[^5][^7] Each mode is bound to a hotkey, and the user can switch between modes from a Spotlight-style command bar, a menu-bar list, an Apple Shortcuts action, or the Raycast or Alfred extensions.[^16][^19][^20]

The default modes that ship with Superwhisper include Voice (raw transcription with light cleanup), Message (casual rewriting suitable for chat applications), Email (formal rewriting with greetings and sign-offs), and Super, the flagship context-aware mode introduced in 2024 that gathers screen and clipboard context before invoking the language model.[^21][^22] Users can create unlimited additional modes on the Pro tier; the free tier is capped at three custom modes.[^11]

### Super mode and context

Super mode goes beyond a fixed system prompt by gathering three categories of contextual information at recording time and feeding them to the post-processing language model.[^21][^22] The first is application context: the name of the active app, the contents of the focused text field, and system data such as the current date and the user's name. The second is selected text: any highlighted text in the active app is treated as the editing target. The third is recent clipboard content within a three-second window before the dictation began, intended for cases where the user copies something to be referenced or transformed.[^21] All three categories are pulled through accessibility APIs and require the user to grant the corresponding macOS permission.[^21][^22] In effect, Super mode lets the language model rewrite an existing draft, reply to a message in the appropriate register, or insert content at a specific location, rather than producing a free-standing transcript.

### Cloud post-processing

When a mode is configured to use a hosted language model, Superwhisper sends the transcribed text (and, for Super mode, the gathered context) to the user's selected provider. Supported providers include [OpenAI](/wiki/openai) (GPT family models), [Anthropic](/wiki/anthropic) ([Claude](/wiki/claude) family models), Google Gemini, xAI Grok, [Mistral](/wiki/mistral_ai), and [Llama](/wiki/llama) models served by [Groq](/wiki/groq_hardware) or Together AI.[^7][^4] Users may either subscribe to Superwhisper Pro and use the company's bundled access to these providers or bring their own API keys; in the bring-your-own-key configuration, requests bypass SuperUltra's servers entirely and go directly from the user's machine to the provider.[^7]

Audio itself is never sent to a cloud provider when an on-device speech model is selected, which is the configuration the company markets as the default privacy-preserving path.[^11][^22] On free tier installations, recording history is stored locally in the user's home directory; the Pro tier allows configuring the storage path and includes optional iCloud sync, but does not upload audio to SuperUltra-controlled servers as of the May 2026 documentation.[^22]

## Features

### System-wide dictation

The primary interaction is a global push-to-talk shortcut, default `Fn`, that records audio while held and transcribes on release.[^22][^16] On macOS the resulting text is auto-pasted into the focused application via the system Services API; on iOS the keyboard pastes into the focused text field.[^16][^10] Hands-free toggle-style recording is also supported for longer dictations such as meeting notes.[^11]

### Integrations

- macOS Services menu: Superwhisper registers a system service so any app's Edit menu can invoke transcription or mode actions on selected text or audio files.[^16]
- Apple Shortcuts: deep-link URLs of the form `superwhisper://record?mode=...` allow Shortcuts and other automation tools to switch modes and start recording in one action.[^16]
- Raycast: an official Raycast extension, maintained by Chudleigh, adds commands for changing modes, starting and stopping recordings, searching history, and copying the most recent transcript; the extension has roughly 8,000 installs as of May 2026.[^19]
- Alfred: a community-maintained Alfred workflow provides equivalent commands for users of that launcher.[^20]
- File transcription: audio and video files can be dropped onto the app for batch transcription with optional speaker identification (added in version 1.3.9 on Windows in April 2026).[^9]
- Meeting recording: macOS system audio plus microphone are captured together for transcribing video calls and recorded meetings.[^11]

### Vocabulary and replacements

Each mode has a vocabulary list that biases the speech model toward user-specified terms (product names, jargon, colleague names) and a separate replacements list that performs literal substitutions on the transcribed text, for example expanding "my address" into a literal mailing address.[^9][^7] Parakeet's keyword-recognition feature is wired into the same vocabulary system on platforms where Parakeet is available.[^13]

### Languages

The Whisper-based pipeline supports the 99 languages that upstream Whisper was trained on, plus optional translation of any source language into English; the multilingual Parakeet V3 model covers a smaller set of languages but runs faster.[^11][^13] The user can pin a mode to a specific language or leave it on automatic detection.[^5]

## Pricing

Superwhisper uses a freemium model.[^11] The free tier provides unlimited use of the smaller on-device Whisper models, up to three custom modes, and a 15-minute trial of Pro features.[^11][^7] Pro is sold at three price points: $8.49 per month, $84.99 per year, or $249.99 as a one-time lifetime purchase.[^11][^10] A single Pro license covers macOS, Windows, and iOS for the same user.[^11][^10] An Enterprise tier with custom pricing, single sign-on, and SOC 2 Type II compliance is offered to larger organizations.[^11] All paid plans carry a 30-day refund guarantee.[^11]

The lifetime tier was retained throughout 2024-2026 even as comparable indie productivity apps moved away from one-time purchases. Independent reviews note that the $249.99 lifetime price breaks even against the $84.99 annual plan at roughly the three-year mark, making it cost-effective for users committed to the product long-term.[^7][^23]

## Reception

Reviews of Superwhisper have generally been positive in the developer-oriented Mac press. The independent reviewer at Today on Mac in 2024 described the app as "the AI dictation app that listens and learns" and highlighted the modes feature as a meaningful improvement over generic Whisper wrappers.[^24] A 2026 Voibe Resources review measured 95-96% raw transcription accuracy on a standard 500-word test passage using Whisper large-v3 with a USB microphone, calling the result "impressive for a fully offline tool with no cloud processing."[^7] The same review described the mode system as "best-in-class" and gave the product 7.5 out of 10 overall, criticizing default-on local audio recording and plaintext API key storage as friction points that require manual hardening after install.[^7]

The Globe and Mail profiled SuperUltra in early 2026, citing the company's bootstrapped status, seven-figure revenue, and ambition to "make the keyboard obsolete."[^1] Superwhisper won the Privacy Award for AI Dictation Apps in Product Hunt's Winter 2025 awards.[^6][^25]

Andrej Karpathy, the former OpenAI and Tesla machine-learning researcher, mentioned Superwhisper several times during 2024-2025 as part of his "vibe coding" workflow, in which the user dictates natural-language instructions to an AI coding assistant rather than typing code.[^26] That association raised the app's visibility within the AI-engineering community and contributed to its adoption inside [OpenAI](/wiki/openai) and at AI startups according to The Globe and Mail's reporting.[^1][^26]

## Comparison to other dictation tools

The market for AI-powered desktop dictation tools grew rapidly between 2023 and 2026.[^6][^27] Superwhisper sits in a category alongside MacWhisper, Aiko, Whispering, VoiceInk, and Wispr Flow, but the products differ along several axes.

| Product | Developer | First release | Local speech | Cloud LLM post-processing | Platforms | Lifetime price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Superwhisper | SuperUltra, Inc. (Neil Chudleigh) | Aug 2023[^3] | Whisper, Parakeet, Distil-Whisper[^7] | Yes (BYOK or bundled)[^7] | macOS, Windows, iOS[^9] | $249.99[^11] |
| MacWhisper | Good Snooze (Jordi Bruin) | Feb 2023[^28] | Whisper (incl. large-v3-turbo)[^28] | Optional via integrations[^28] | macOS[^28] | $79.99 (App Store)[^29] |
| Aiko | Sindre Sorhus | 2022[^30] | Whisper large-v2 only[^30] | No[^30] | macOS, iOS[^30] | Free[^30] |
| Wispr Flow | Wispr AI (Tanay Kothari) | macOS 2024[^31] | No (cloud)[^29] | Yes (proprietary cloud)[^31] | macOS, Windows, iOS, Android[^29] | None (subscription only)[^29] |

MacWhisper, written by Amsterdam-based indie developer Jordi Bruin and launched in early 2023, focuses on file transcription rather than system-wide dictation: users drop in audio or video files and receive transcripts with speaker diarization, full-text search, and YouTube export.[^28][^29] It does ship a system-wide dictation feature in the Pro tier, but the product's center of gravity is offline batch transcription, and it is macOS-only as of 2026.[^29] Pricing for MacWhisper is $29 from Gumroad or $79.99 from the App Store for the Pro tier, one-time.[^29]

Aiko, by [Apple](/wiki/apple)-developer-community figure Sindre Sorhus, is a free macOS and iOS Whisper wrapper that pioneered on-device Whisper UX in 2022 but ships only the large-v2 model and is positioned for file transcription rather than real-time dictation.[^30] Independent comparisons note it is "too slow for real-time use" because of the single large model.[^30]

Wispr Flow, made by Wispr AI in South San Francisco and founded by Tanay Kothari and Sahaj Garg, is Superwhisper's most direct competitor in real-time dictation.[^31][^32] Wispr Flow does not use OpenAI's [Whisper](/wiki/whisper); it runs proprietary cloud models hosted on its own infrastructure with audio sent off-device.[^29] Wispr AI raised a $30 million Series A in June 2025 led by Menlo Ventures, with participation from NEA and 8VC, followed by a $25 million Series A extension in November 2025 led by Notable Capital, bringing total funding to about $81 million.[^32][^33] Reporting in May 2026 suggested the company was in advanced talks for a $260 million round at roughly a $2 billion valuation.[^34] The contrast in business models, Wispr Flow as a venture-backed cloud platform versus Superwhisper as a bootstrapped on-device app, is frequently cited in product comparisons.[^7][^29]
