installDownload the signed and notarized macOS app, then install its separate local speech-engine dependencies
enginesThe local coli speech-recognition engine; the current public setup does not identify a supported cloud backend.
dataIt keeps no transcript history: captured audio is processed locally, the result is placed in the clipboard or active app, and downloaded model files live under ~/.coli/models.
setupDespite the polished app bundle, setup requires Node.js LTS, ffmpeg, a global npm install of @marswave/coli, and a separate model download.

A deliberately tiny Mac app for hotkey, speech, transcription and paste.
the catchIt has no smart rewriting, app context, glossary, history, or cross-device support, and its supposedly tiny install still needs Node.js, ffmpeg, npm, and a model.
the verdict →all Wispr Flow alternatives →
Control, talk, Control, paste. It has no settings because there is nothing to upsell.
