Description
Zumbo uses local AI models on your Mac to instantly turn what you say into text, with near perfect accuracy and complete privacy, in every app. About a fifth of a second from the end of your sentence to text in the app. 21 vocabulary packs, from developer tools to legal, medical and design, and it learns from your corrections: wrong once, never again. Notes with reminders, meetings with speaker labels. Works with the Wi-Fi off, no account. One-time price, open source.
