Get started

One click. Then just speak.

TypeMic is private by design — your voice is transcribed on your own machine and never leaves it. Download, install, and dictate in any app.

Ubuntu · Debian · Mint · Pop!_OS

Double-click the file after it downloads. Your system’s software installer opens, asks for your password once, and sets everything up — permissions, service, and app icon included. No terminal, no manual steps.

Prefer the terminal?

Same install, one line — any Debian-based distro:

terminal

$ curl -fsSL https://typemic.com/install | bash

Fedora, openSUSE, and Arch packages are on the way — tell us which one you need and we’ll prioritize it.

Then just speak

Hold your shortcut — Ctrl+Space by default — speak, and release. Your words appear at the cursor, in whatever app you’re using. Also coming to Windows and macOS — join the early-access list.
