About SafeDictate — Private Voice Typing
🎙️ SafeDictate — Voice Typing That Physically Can't Leak
The Chrome extension that runs Whisper AI directly in your browser.
No server. No cloud. No way for your audio to go anywhere.
Press Alt+Shift+V → speak → release. Your words appear in the active field.
That's it. Nothing is sent anywhere. Ever.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔒 THE ZERO-LEAK ARCHITECTURE
Other tools say "we don't store your audio."
SafeDictate makes it physically impossible to send it in the first place.
Whisper AI runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly.
The microphone data never touches a network socket.
✅ Built for HIPAA-conscious work — your audio never leaves your device
✅ GDPR-friendly for EU users
✅ Zero telemetry, zero tracking, zero sign-up required
✅ Works offline after the first model download
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🩺 BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO HANDLE SENSITIVE DATA
→ Doctors & therapists: dictate clinical notes in your EHR (SimplePractice, Jane App, Athena) while keeping audio on your device
→ Lawyers: draft documents with NDA content and zero cloud exposure
→ Privacy-first professionals: because "trust us" is not a compliance strategy
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
⚡ WORKS EVERYWHERE YOU TYPE
SafeDictate injects your transcription directly into the active text field — no copy-paste required:
✉️ Gmail — compose full emails hands-free
🤖 ChatGPT — prompt engineering at speaking speed (150 WPM vs 40 WPM typing)
📄 Google Docs — seamless voice editing with cursor awareness
📊 Google Sheets — cell-level dictation
📋 Any input, textarea, or contenteditable field on any website
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🚀 HOW IT WORKS
1. Install → quick 4-step onboarding (2 minutes)
2. Choose language: English or Auto-detect (50+ languages supported)
3. Whisper model downloads once (~40 MB) and is cached locally
4. Click any text field on any page → press Alt+Shift+V → speak → press again to stop
5. Text appears. Done.
Or right-click any editable field and choose "Start voice dictation" from the context menu.
