Whispree

Whispree is a menu bar application for macOS that converts speech to text using local or cloud-based transcription, optionally refines it with AI, and automatically pastes the result into your active application. Designed for developers and writers who want to dictate prompts and content while maintaining their train of thought, it supports multiple transcription engines (WhisperKit, Groq, MLX Audio) and correction models (local MLX, OpenAI, Groq, Claude). The app includes visual context capture, code-switching optimization for mixed-language input, and multi-recording queues for continuous dictation.

Whispree requires macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon and runs with local-first architecture, though cloud engines are also available. The project describes itself as an open-source alternative to SuperWhisper. According to the source, it was built using Claude for code assistance.
