Overview

What is Sotto Voice?

STT that adapts to every app

Sotto Voice is a voice-to-text app for Mac. Speak naturally and it turns your words into finished text wherever your cursor is, adapting wording, tone, and structure to the app you are in.

Key capabilities:

  • Hold a key to dictate and let go: text lands about 0.2 seconds after you stop, punctuated and cleaned up.
  • App-aware output: structured, best-practice prompts for coding agents, natural emails that sound like you, and text formatted for where it will go.
  • Voice editing: select text and say make this friendlier or turn it into bullets.
  • Private by design: run fully on your Mac or bring your own Groq key, with no account, and history stays on your Mac.

Sotto is not on the App Store yet, so macOS asks you to confirm the first time you open it. It is free to download.
