What open-mic-ai does

Turn your voice into ready-to-use writing, with AI that runs on your computer. Open Mic AI stays in the background. Click a text box, press one shortcut, and speak. Choose a raw transcript, a quick cleanup, or polished formatting, then have it pasted at your cursor. Highlight existing text to rewrite, translate, or summarize it with the same shortcut.

Dictate anywhere you type. The floating bar follows your workflow across apps, without a browser extension. Automatic paste and selected-text capture depend on the text field's accessibility support. Windows also reads selections through a clipboard fallback for canvas editors such as Google Docs. Copy is always available.
