Steno is a voice-to-text app for macOS and iPhone that knows what you do for a living. It detects your profession and tunes its transcription automatically — a lawyer's "habeas corpus," a developer's "git commit -m," a doctor's medication names all land correctly. No custom dictionaries, no training.
It enrolls your voice profile to isolate you from other people in the room, not just background noise, so it works in open offices, coffee shops, and courtrooms. A meeting mode captures multi-speaker conversations as structured notes. Seven AI actions let you:
clean up filler words
fix grammar
shift tone
shorten
translate
draft a reply in one tap
Features include:
Voice commands
Custom vocabulary snippets
90+ languages
Fully offline on Apple Silicon
Dictation history with WPM tracking
On iPhone, the Steno keyboard works in every app. You press a button, speak, and your words appear wherever your cursor is — five times faster than typing.
