Install on a Mac
Three steps. Then you just speak.
2
Allow two permissions
Microphone, so it can hear you. Accessibility, so it can type where your cursor is. The app explains each one before macOS asks.
3
Hold your key and talk
Try it on the guided first-run screen, then anywhere the cursor blinks. Double tap to go hands-free.
Install on Windows
1
Run the installer
Open VaitlyVoice-Setup.exe. It is signed by Vaitly Limited and installs for your user only, so there is no administrator prompt.
2
Allow the microphone
Windows asks once. There is no accessibility permission on a PC. The speech model downloads on the first run.
3
Hold Right Ctrl and talk
Or any key you record. Windows does not let any ordinary program type into a window running as administrator; everything else works.
Before you download
Questions people ask.
Is it safe to open?
Yes. On a Mac, Vaitly Voice is signed with a Developer ID certificate issued to Vaitly Limited and checked by Apple's notary service; macOS verifies both the first time you open it. On Windows, the installer carries an Authenticode signature from Vaitly Limited, which Windows checks as it runs.
Which computers does it run on?
Apple silicon Macs (M1 or later) on macOS 14 Sonoma or newer, and 64-bit (x64) Windows PCs on Windows 10 22H2 or Windows 11. Intel Macs and Windows on ARM are not supported.
One license for Mac and Windows?
Yes. A paid plan covers 5 devices in any mix of Macs and PCs. Sign in on each machine from Settings → Account.
Is Pro in this download?
Yes. There is one app. It starts on Free, and buying Pro in Settings → Account unlocks unlimited dictation, Vaitly Meetings (beta), meeting summaries, Cloud Polish, Transforms and encrypted backup on the same install, Mac or Windows.
How do I update?
Download the new version from this page and install it over the old one. Your settings, vocabulary and history are kept. There is no automatic updater yet, on either platform.
Does it need an account or a card?
No. The Free plan gives you 1,000 dictated words a week with no account. An account is only needed to move your plan between computers or to buy a plan.
Where does my voice go?
Nowhere. Speech is transcribed on your computer, for dictation and meetings, and the audio is not uploaded. Pro features you use, such as meeting summaries and Cloud Polish, send text to Vaitly's server, which uses OpenAI.
