Unlimited dictation, free for life. It runs on your machine, and your voice stays there.
Messy speech into usable writing.
Raw thought
“so the point is i don’t want another chatbot i want something where i can talk and then the idea becomes something i can actually use later maybe like a desk for thinking”
Murmr note
Murmr should not feel like another chatbot. It should feel like a quiet desk for thinking, a place where spoken thoughts become notes, drafts, and writing you can actually use later.
Feel free to Murmr.
Most AI dictation apps give you a taste, then start charging you for speech. Murmr Dictation is free, forever.

Every dictation becomes searchable memory, portable and Obsidian-compatible.
Export your words
Export dictations as .txt or .docx whenever you want.
Totally local and private
Your speech belongs on your machine, not inside someone else’s cloud meter.
No internet needed
Dictate freely when you are offline, travelling, or working privately.
