FreeFlow

FreeFlow is a free, open-source dictation application for macOS that enables hands-free text input with AI-powered cleanup. The project describes itself as a free alternative to Wispr Flow, Superwhisper, and Monologue. It offers hold-to-talk shortcuts, context-aware transcription correction using nearby app context, custom vocabulary support, and voice macros for predefined text insertion.

The app prioritizes privacy by processing all data locally—no FreeFlow server stores user information, with only API calls to configured transcription providers leaving the Mac. Users can choose between Groq (the default) or compatible OpenAI-compatible endpoints. FreeFlow works on all Macs with both Apple Silicon and Intel processors and is licensed under MIT.
