Overview

VoiceForge is a desktop dictation app for people who think faster than they type. Hold a global shortcut, speak naturally, and release. VoiceForge transcribes the recording, cleans up the result, and pastes it into the app you already have open. Bring your own provider key or use local transcription, keep a searchable history, and teach the corrections dictionary the names and terms you use every day.
