Dictation

Dictation that keeps up

Tap a key, talk as long as you want, tap it again. The text pastes wherever your cursor is — an email, a DAW note, a comment box, anywhere you can type. It’s Whisper running on your own machine, so there’s no clock on you and nothing to upload.

  • No time limits — talk for two seconds or twenty minutes
  • Pastes at your cursor, in any app
  • Local Whisper — nothing leaves the computer

The phone remote

Run your studio from your phone.

Quota Voice Remote is a free iPhone app. Pair it once with a QR code, then fire a spoken command or a shared link from anywhere — the couch, the bus, the line at the store — and the Mac in the studio does the work. By the time you sit down, it’s ready. Your voice is transcribed on the phone; only sealed, end-to-end-encrypted text ever leaves it, and it only ever goes to your own computer.

  • Share sheet in

    Send a TikTok or YouTube link from the phone’s share sheet.

  • End-to-end encrypted

    The relay can’t read what you send. Neither can we.

The inbox

The Crate

A share-sheet inbox for everything you find while you’re out. Fling links in from your phone all day — the bus, the line, the couch. When you’re back at the desk, they’re all sitting in the Crate, waiting to be sampled. Digging doesn’t stop because you left the studio.

FAQ

Straight answers

Does Quota Voice send my audio to the cloud?

No. Dictation is Whisper running locally on your machine — the audio never leaves your computer. The phone remote uses an end-to-end encrypted relay, so there’s no server that can read your stuff either.

Do I need an account?

No. There are no accounts anywhere in Quota. Download it and use it — a license is a key you paste in once, not a login.

My copy still shows a trial. How do I use it for free?

Use the free activation key on this page or in your download email. Current builds still include the old trial screen; the free key gives you permanent access, including after a trial has expired. Your transcripts, dictionary, and settings stay put.

Does my license need the internet to work?

No. Your key is signed with Ed25519 and checked entirely on your machine. Quota Voice never phones home to validate it, so it keeps working on a plane, in a basement studio, or ten years from now if this site is gone.

Is it a subscription?

No. Quota Voice is free. There is no purchase, subscription, renewal, or paid unlock. Commands that use DS or Kits still require those separate apps and their licenses.

How long can I dictate?

As long as you want. Tap the key, talk, tap it again when you’re done. There are no time limits.

What Macs does it run on?

Apple Silicon Macs. Windows 10/11 too.
