Capture the thought. Keep your hands on the work.

A local capture layer for macOS. Speak, select or type, then paste it, queue it or keep it on a shelf you control.

WHY THIS EXISTS

Good thoughts often arrive while the cursor is somewhere else.

Most dictation tools ask you to move into their interface. Voiced works from the editor already in focus, then gives longer captures a quiet place to wait. Nothing needs an account or a cloud transcript.

Local Whisper transcription. No account, telemetry, cloud storage or server.

ONE CAPTURE MODEL

Voice, selection and typed notes all land in the same shelf.

Quick captures paste straight back. Anything worth keeping can stay in Inbox until it is edited, copied or moved to Done.

  1. Hold ⌘

    Speak and paste

    Transcribe into the previously focused editor.

  2. ⇧ + ⌘

    Save quietly

    Record, release and send the capture to Inbox.

  3. Shift ×2

    Capture selection

    Take the selected text without changing tools.

  4. ⌥ Space

    Open the shelf

    Search, edit, export or move saved captures.

HOW IT WAS BUILT

A native Mac utility built around recoverable actions.

Voiced uses one CaptureItem across voice, selection and typed input. Clipboard writes restore the previous value when safe, storage is atomic, and corrupt data gets a recovery copy before the shelf starts clean.
