Stenox

Stenox is a professional-grade voice dictation and transcription tool for macOS designed to help you get text onto the screen significantly faster than typing. It converts spoken words into accurate, structured text in real time, allowing users to draft documents, emails, notes, and code using their voice. The tool is built to support both quick, ad-hoc dictation and longer, continuous speech workflows for professionals who rely heavily on written communication.

Stenox integrates with 8+ leading speech-to-text providers and lets you switch between offline and cloud-based transcription depending on your accuracy, speed, and privacy needs. Offline mode keeps audio processing on your device, while cloud providers can be used when you need higher accuracy for specific languages, accents, or technical vocabularies. The app is optimized for macOS, providing low-latency dictation, customizable keyboard shortcuts, and seamless integration with your existing applications. A privacy-first approach ensures that you retain control over your audio and text data, with clear options for local processing and minimal data retention.
