Is Fast Dictate free?

Yes, Fast Dictate offers free voice typing with 2,000 words per week, no credit card required. For unlimited dictation, upgrade to the Standard plan. Teams get the same plan per user, set up right from the app.

How is Fast Dictate different from other dictation tools?

Fast Dictate stands out in three key ways: AI that automatically corrects spelling and grammar, privacy by design (your audio is deleted right after transcription and never used to train AI), and native operation in all your apps without copy-pasting.

Does Fast Dictate work offline?

Fast Dictate requires an internet connection to work. Our transcription and correction AI runs on secure servers, ensuring optimal transcription quality and real-time spelling correction.

Is my voice data secure?

Absolutely. Your audio is processed in real time and immediately deleted. We retain no voice data, and your content is never used to train AI. All communications between the app and our servers are encrypted via HTTPS/TLS.

Which apps does Fast Dictate work with?

Fast Dictate works in any app where you can type: Gmail, Outlook, Word, Google Docs, Slack, Notion, WhatsApp, Discord, VS Code, and many more. Just press the keyboard shortcut and speak. Text appears directly where your cursor is.

How do I cancel my subscription?

You can cancel your subscription at any time from the app settings, with no commitment or hidden fees. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period. No questions asked.

Your words stay private

On every plan: nothing is kept after processing, and your content never trains AI models.

Encrypted in transit

Everything between the app and our servers travels over HTTPS/TLS

No data retention

Your audio is deleted right after transcription

No AI training

Your content is never used to train our models

See the difference

Where standard dictation tools hand you back a raw draft, Fast Dictate removes the hesitations, gets names and terms right, applies your formatting rules and punctuates everything, automatically.
