Monologue is voice dictation that writes the way you talk—so your messages, emails, and notes come out clear, polished, and sounding like you.
Write what you meant to say
Most dictation apps get the words down. Monologue gets the intent right—matching your tone (casual, professional, or anything in between) and cleaning up the “uhs,” filler, and awkward phrasing automatically.
What you’ll get
- Smart formatting: Clean structure for what you’re writing (no cleanup pass).
- Personal dictionary: Names, acronyms, and your vocabulary remembered automatically.
- Flexible modes: Choose how Monologue writes (email, docs, notes, code) and tailor it to your workflows.
- Multilingual by default: Dictate in 100+ languages and switch naturally.
Privacy is built in
- No audio files or transcripts are saved on our servers.
- Zero LLM data retention.
Pricing Start free with 1,000 included words. Upgrade to Monologue Pro for unlimited words.

Total game changer! This makes dictation actually usable, especially for lengthy dictations. The ability to create Modes with rules for different apps or websites is amazing. The Notes feature is also very powerful and has allowed me to capture my thoughts ad hoc and send them to my Notion task inbox. Give Monologue a try, especially if you work on your phone and Mac desktop… it works seamlessly across both.
Next Level Dictation

I've tried several other dictation tools, but Monologue has by far given me the best quality and accuracy over time. It doesn't just transcribe what you said, but it processes it with an LLM to clean it up and enrich the inputs, often even figuring out what you meant to say, even if you stumbled while saying it.5/5 I always recommend this tool when anyone mentions voice dictation
Best macOS Dictation App, Finally on iOS!

I've been using Monologue for several months now on my Mac after trying several different speech-to-text apps (and nearly considering building my own because of how frustrated they made me). Monologue has been the first tool to pass the tipping point for me. The accuracy is top-notch, especially when you leverage the custom dictionary. And while iOS makes it really painful to develop third-party keyboards for their phones, Monologue's approach is very clean and already less buggy than other apps that have been in the market for years. Great work by the Every Company!(And yes, this review was written with Monologue!)
Incredible! Must Have

I loved Monologue on the Mac, and I think I like it even better on iPhone! The voice notes feature with summary & transcription was a fun surprise, and I love that you can activate it via the action button as well. It’s miles ahead of the built in speech-to-text for iOS. Great design work, Naveen!
After iOS 26.4 changes, automatic return to your previous app may no longer work reliably. If Monologue opens during dictation, you may need to manually switch back to the app you were using to continue dictating.
Improvements:
- Dictionary Add and Remove actions are now available directly in the QWERTY keyboard layout.
- Better recovery for recordings left behind after an interruption or app restart.
- Fixed keyboard states that could sometimes get stuck during dictation.
- Live Activity pause/resume state and timer behavior are now more accurate.
- Stopping a note from the Live Activity or shortcut flow now opens the app when needed.
- Note details now remember the last tab you were viewing.
