Local speech to text
Say what you mean, even while you’re figuring it out. MumbleFlow turns natural speech into polished text on your Mac. As AI learns to understand intent and take action, your voice becomes the starting point.
A different way to work
Local speech to text
Polished dictation
Hold Fn, say the rough version, and release. MumbleFlow removes fillers, follows your corrections, and adds punctuation, paragraphs, or a numbered list. One finished result lands in your focused app—with a copy on your clipboard. Your thoughts can sound like thoughts.
Polished dictation
0/3Oat meeting notes
Meet Oat, your local meeting workspace. Explicitly record your microphone and selected computer audio. Follow a live transcript, catch up on the last five minutes, and revisit decisions, action items, and open questions. Every generated note leads back to the conversation.
Capture your microphone and one app or all computer audio. No meeting bot, ambient buffer, or retained video.
Live timestamps, remote speaker labels, and editable names. Your microphone is labeled “You.”
Catch up on the preceding five minutes while the meeting keeps recording.
Cited topics, decisions, next steps, and open questions. Play the source audio while it’s retained.
Local AI search
Ask a question across the meetings stored on your Mac. Local search combines exact words with similar meanings. AI answers use retrieved passages and checked citations, so you can open the supporting timestamp—or see when the evidence isn’t there.

Inside MumbleFlow
A quiet Mac workspace for finished writing, meeting notes, and the context you want to keep.
Let’s make the first run feel a little simpler. What still needs to happen before we launch?
We’re moving the launch to Thursday afternoon so we can give onboarding one more review.
I’ll take the onboarding review. I can have the updated checklist ready by Wednesday.
Great. Let’s keep the launch note short and calm. Mention the extra time for onboarding.
One thing is still open: do we send the update to everyone, or start with the pilot group?
A little more time for a careful first impression.
A final pass through the first-run experience.
The team reviewed the remaining launch work and agreed to make room for one more onboarding check.

From thought to actionAn illustrative workflow
Spoken context can become a clear request for an AI assistant. MumbleFlow handles local recognition, thoughtful cleanup, and insertion into the app you’re using.
“Okay, I need a note about the launch. We’re moving it to Thursday—actually, Thursday afternoon. Keep it short. We need one more pass on onboarding. Make it sound calm.”
An idea can arrive in fragments. You can revise it as you speak. A pause, a correction, or an unfinished sentence is part of finding what you mean.
MumbleFlow recognizes and polishes the spoken words on your Mac, then inserts one stable result into the focused text field. Your AI assistant can work from that context.

01 / Your voice
Hold to dictate, double-tap for hands-free, press once to finish. Escape cancels. A configurable shortcut defaults to Option-Space.
Your local dictionary remembers names and jargon. Encrypted history keeps finished text for seven days by default; pin it, clear it, or turn history off.
Explore dictation02 / Your conversations
Oat starts only when you choose Record Meeting. Capture your microphone and selected computer audio, with live timestamps, editable speakers, and no video.
Get a five-minute catch-up, cited decisions, next steps, and open questions. Owners and due dates appear only when spoken. Resume a meeting while its audio is retained.
Meet Oat03 / Your context
Search the meetings stored in MumbleFlow by phrase or meaning. Open a result at its transcript timestamp, and play the source audio while it’s retained.
Ranked results work without a generative model. Apple Intelligence or optional local Qwen can answer from retrieved evidence. Gmail, Calendar, and Slack connections aren’t enabled in this release.
Explore local searchLocal is the point
Recognition, writing cleanup, speaker analysis, meeting notes, embeddings, search, and answers run on your Mac after model setup. The desktop app has no account, analytics SDK, cloud content server, or cloud sync.
Sensitive records use AES-GCM encryption. Dictation audio is discarded after processing, except for optional diagnostics. Meeting audio expires after 30 days. Transcripts and notes stay until you delete them.
You’ll need internet for purchase, app and model downloads, and updates. Text you insert into another app follows that app’s privacy rules. Clipboard managers and syncing can also move copied text.

Open the signed DMG, drag MumbleFlow into Applications, and launch that copy.
Allow Microphone and Accessibility. Oat asks separately for Screen & System Audio Recording.
Download verified English speech assets. Use Apple Intelligence, install optional Qwen, or keep raw transcription.
Focus Notes or TextEdit, hold Fn, speak, and release. Keep the field focused until your finished text arrives.
This release supports Apple Silicon Macs with macOS 26 or later and English recognition. Intel Macs, Windows, Linux, iPhone, Android, and other recognition languages are not supported.
A few things to know
MumbleFlow is a native Mac app with two connected workflows: polished system-wide voice dictation and Oat meeting notes. It turns natural speech into finished writing, records meetings only when you ask it to, and keeps transcripts, summaries, and search on your Mac.
It transcribes speech with an on-device Parakeet model, then uses Apple Intelligence or an optional local Qwen model for longer dictation. The cleanup removes fillers and abandoned restarts, catches explicit corrections, adds punctuation and paragraphs, and formats clearly introduced tasks as numbered lists while protecting names, numbers, links, and meaning.
Yes. Oat explicitly records your microphone and selected computer audio without retaining video, builds a timestamped transcript, separates remote speakers, and creates cited topics, timelines, decisions, action items, and open questions. What did I miss? summarizes the preceding five minutes while recording continues.
Core dictation, transcription, polishing, meeting summaries, and meeting search run on the Mac after required models are installed. Internet access is still needed for purchase, model and app downloads, and software updates. Gmail, Calendar, and Slack connections are not enabled in the current download.
The current app is for Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 26 or later. Intel Macs, Windows, Linux, iPhone, and Android are not supported in this release.
MumbleFlow is designed to insert the finished result into the text field focused when processing ends, including native Mac apps and browser editors. It also saves the result to the clipboard and can retain it in encrypted Dictation History. Individual websites or apps can still impose their own input behavior.
Dictation audio is discarded after processing unless you explicitly enable the latest-test diagnostic recording. Dictation text is kept for seven days by default unless history is disabled or an entry is pinned. Encrypted meeting audio expires after 30 days, while transcripts and cited notes remain until you delete them.
The website currently offers MumbleFlow for a $5 one-time purchase with no recurring app subscription.
