All the speed. None of the servers.

Modern speech recognition, small enough to live on your machine and fast enough that you forget it's there.

100% on-device inference

Your voice is transcribed by a model running on your own hardware. Audio never touches a server — not ours, not anyone's.

Works offline

On a plane, in a basement, off the grid. If your device is on, Scream works.

100+ languages

Speak in the language you think in. Scream detects it automatically and transcribes in its native script.

$0

Free. Actually free.

No subscription, no word limits, no "pro" tier. There's no server bill to pass on to you — so there's no bill.

Types into any app

Email, Slack, your editor, a terminal — anywhere there's a text cursor.

Private by design

Not private by policy. Private because there's nowhere for your data to go.

No round-trips

No upload, no queue, no waiting on someone else's server. Release the key and it's there.

// How it works

Hold. Speak. Done.

No windows to open, no buttons to click. Scream lives in the background until you need it.

01
fn

Hold your hotkey

Put your cursor anywhere and hold the key. Pick any shortcut you like.

02

Say it — or scream it

Talk naturally in any language. Whisper, ramble, switch languages mid-thought.

03
Ship it on Friday 🚀

Release. It's typed.

Clean, punctuated text lands right where your cursor is. Nothing left the room.

// Clean writing

Talk messy. Read polished.

Nobody speaks in finished sentences. Scream drops the ums and false starts, adds the punctuation, and formats the result — so what lands on the page reads like you typed it, not like a transcript of you thinking out loud.

// what you said

so um the launch is on tuesday no wait wednesday uh at like three and can everyone bring their notes

// what Scream typed

The launch is on Wednesday at 3. Can everyone bring their notes?

Speak naturally

Pause, ramble, start over. No need to say "comma" or "new paragraph" — punctuation and line breaks show up where they belong.

Edits as you speak

Change your mind mid-sentence — "Tuesday, no, Wednesday" — and Scream keeps the correction, not the detour.

Use it anywhere

The same clean text in email, chat, docs or your code editor. If it has a text box, Scream can write in it.

// Compare

Cloud dictation, minus the cloud.

Most voice-typing apps ship your audio to a data center. Scream doesn't have one.

// FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does any of my audio leave my device? +

No. Recording, transcription and typing all happen locally. Scream works with your Wi‑Fi switched off — try it.

How is it free? +

Cloud dictation costs money because every word runs on a rented GPU. Scream runs on the hardware you already own, so there's no per-word cost to charge you for.

Which languages are supported? +

Scream is multilingual out of the box and auto-detects what you're speaking across 100+ languages — English, Spanish, Hindi, Japanese, Arabic, French, German, Chinese and many more. You can even switch languages mid-sentence.

Which apps does it work in? +

Any app with a text field. Scream types where your cursor is, just like a keyboard would.

Do I need a powerful computer? +

No. Scream is tuned to run well on everyday laptops. Faster hardware simply makes it faster.
