About Open ear

OpenEar turns your Mac into a private, on-device assistant for dictation and meeting capture. Press and hold Fn in any app to dictate — when you release, cleaned-up text is inserted where you're typing. It also records meetings and keeps transcripts locally (on your chip, not the cloud), prioritizing privacy and offline processing with on-device ML.

Key Features

  • Press-and-hold Fn to dictate anywhere and insert cleaned-up text into the active app
  • On-device speech-to-text and transcription — no cloud upload, privacy-first
  • Meeting recording with local transcripts (remembers every word on your device)
  • Works across apps via a system-wide hotkey; text is pasted where you type

Who is this for?

Mac users who want private, on-device dictation and meeting transcription — knowledge workers, professionals, and anyone who wants offline, privacy-first speech-to-text.
