Hold your key (fn on a Mac, Right Ctrl on Windows), say what you want to write, and let go. Lume turns your speech into clean, punctuated text and pastes it wherever your cursor is: email, Slack, docs, code, AI chats. On iPhone and Android you talk into any app the same way.
Yes, two ways. Every new account gets 3,000 free words, one time, with no card and no clock: spend them whenever you like. And the first time you upgrade in the app, Pro Monthly and Pro Annual start with a 7-day free trial. A card is needed to start it; cancel before the 7 days are up and you pay nothing. Lifetime is a one-time purchase with no trial.

Your audio is used to create your text and isn’t stored on our servers. Your history stays on your device, and your dictations are never used to train models. See our Privacy Policy for details.
100 languages, detected automatically. Pick an output language and Lume can write what you say in another language.
Lume uses current speech recognition, then cleans up the result: fillers out, corrections applied, punctuation in. Add names and jargon to your dictionary so they’re spelled right every time. As with any dictation, a decent microphone and a quiet room help.
Yes. Lume turns speech into text in the cloud, so it needs a connection. Your history is stored on your device.
Yes. Pick almost any modifier or function key in Settings. Hold it to talk, or double-press it to go hands-free and press once to finish.
If you want the same core idea (hold a key, talk, get clean text in any app) with a free start, apps for Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android, and a one-time lifetime option, Lume is built for exactly that.
MacWhisper is great for transcribing recordings. Lume is built for writing live: you talk, and the text lands in the app you’re using. (Lume can transcribe files too.)
