Overview
VoiceOS is a voice-to-text app backed by Y Combinator that turns natural speech into polished writing instantly. It features two modes: Dictation Mode writes what you mean rather than what you literally said, automatically cleaning up filler words and grammar, and Ask Mode lets you tell VoiceOS what to compose and it writes for you. It adapts tone and style per application — formal for email, casual for messaging. Works system-wide across 40+ apps including Gmail, Slack, Notion, VS Code, and Figma. Press fn and start speaking. Privacy-first with data staying on your device. Supports 100+ languages with automatic detection.
