Private, on-device speech transcription for Mac. Record meetings, dictate, or drag in files — no cloud, no accounts, no internet. Free, open source, and AI-powered. Moonshine Note Taker transcribes any speech on your Mac - completely privately, with no connection to the cloud. Record yourself, capture Zoom meetings, play back podcasts or videos, or drag in audio and video files. Edit as you go, then export as formatted text, audio, or SRT captions. Everything runs on your Mac. Your audio and transcripts never leave your device. No accounts, no subscriptions, no data collection. RECORD ANY AUDIO Capture your microphone for dictation, or record system audio to transcribe Zoom calls, podcasts, browser tabs, and anything else playing on your Mac — all at once if you need to. TRANSCRIBE FILES Drag audio or video files directly into the document window. Moonshine Note Taker handles all major formats and transcribes them on-device. EDIT WHILE TRANSCRIBING Don't wait for transcription to finish. Fix mistakes, add formatting, and organize your text in real time as new words stream in. SYNCED PLAYBACK Play back your recorded audio and watch the text highlight in sync. Jump to any part of the transcript to hear exactly what was said. FLEXIBLE EXPORT Save your work as a Moonshine Note Taker document (transcript + audio), formatted text (RTF), WAV audio, or SRT caption files for use in any other application. FAST AND ACCURATE Powered by Moonshine Voice, an AI speech recognition model that achieves lower word error rates than Whisper Large v3 while running over 5x faster on local hardware. Supports English, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and more. COMPLETELY PRIVATE No cloud processing. No accounts. No internet connection required. Your voice and your words stay on your Mac.
