Use tool ↗About soink
soink is a voice keyboard for the Mac: words stream into whatever text field has focus as you speak, filler and grammar are cleaned up live, and you can fix a word by saying the change or send a message by saying "send". Voice and typing mix in the same sentence without switching modes, and it works in Slack, Gmail, Google Docs, ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Terminal and other apps. It supports 11 languages, runs on Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and its maker AtaraFlow, LLC built it after the founder's wrist injury, so it suits people with RSI or TFCC pain. After a 7-day trial, monthly plans carry fair-use ceilings rather than fixed hour counts.

Pros & cons of soink
soink is built around a specific, credible origin story, a founder's wrist injury, and it shows in the details: voice-driven editing commands and hands-free sending go further than typical dictation tools that just convert speech to text. Limiting to macOS narrows the addressable audience considerably, and a Windows version is still just a waitlist. The hour-based usage allowance on paid plans means heavy all-day dictation users need to check the Max tier's cap rather than assuming unlimited use.
Pros
- Works across 30+ apps rather than one dedicated dictation window
- Voice-driven editing commands go beyond plain transcription
- Supports 11 languages
- Founder's own accessibility need shaped the product's focus
Cons
- macOS only; Windows support is still a waitlist and Linux isn't mentioned
- No offline mode, requiring a constant cloud connection
- No ongoing free tier, only a 7-day trial before billing
Best for
- Mac users with wrist or hand pain who need to avoid typing
- People wanting hands-free voice editing and sending across many apps at once
Not for
- Windows or Linux users, since only macOS is currently supported
- Anyone needing an offline mode, which isn't currently available
