PUSHTYPE vs Superwhisper

A Superwhisper alternative for $35, with autocomplete built in.

Both run speech recognition on your Mac.  Superwhisper does more with dictation: custom AI modes, meetings, file transcription, and apps for Windows, iPhone, and Android.  PUSHTYPE adds inline autocomplete and a voice-following teleprompter, and costs $35 once instead of $249.99 for a lifetime license.

Where Superwhisper does better

It has a free plan with unlimited local dictation, more languages, meetings, and apps beyond the Mac.  Its modes can rewrite your words with a large language model for email, chat, or legal tone.  If you want dictation to be a writing tool you configure, Superwhisper goes further.

Why people pick PUSHTYPE

It's one app for everything you write: hold a key to talk, or start typing and Tab takes the rest of the sentence.  Both learn from the same dictionary and, if you switch it on, from how you write, encrypted on your Mac.  There's nothing to configure to get started, and nothing you say or type is uploaded.

Pricing

$35 once for Talk and TYPE, on up to 3 Macs.  Every future Mac update included, all models included, 14-day refund with no questions.  Launch price; $50 after launch.
