Sayso is a voice dictation app for Mac, Windows, and Linux. Press a key, speak, and the text lands in the app you are using. Speech-to-text runs on your computer.

New in 0.3.0

  • Windows. Sayso runs on Windows 10 (version 1809) or later and on Windows 11, on a 64-bit Intel or AMD processor. The default toggle key is Ctrl+Space.
  • Linux. Sayso runs on x86_64 and aarch64, with X11 or Wayland. The default toggle key is Ctrl+Alt+Space. docs/linux.md lists what works on each desktop.
  • Updates. Sayso looks for a new version when it starts and one time each day. Settings › General, the Hub sidebar, and the Popover show a newer version. To stop the checks, turn off Settings › General › Check for updates.
    • On macOS, Sayso installs the update itself, at the next start or with Restart to update. It checks the download against a signed manifest, and it checks the Developer ID signature and the notarization of the new app. Install updates automatically downloads the update without a question.
    • On Windows and Linux, Sayso shows the new version and opens the download page.
  • Hotkeys. A hotkey that you cleared stays cleared after a restart.

Sayso 0.2.0 has no update check. Install 0.3.0 by hand one time, and later versions come through the app.

Install

  • macOS: download Sayso-0.3.0-macos-arm64.dmg, open it, and drag Sayso to Applications. Requires macOS 14 or later on Apple Silicon.
  • Windows: download Sayso-0.3.0-windows-x64-setup.exe and open it. It installs Sayso for your user account, without administrator rights. The installer is not signed, so Windows SmartScreen asks first. Select More info › Run anyway.
  • Linux: download sayso-0.3.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz or sayso-0.3.0-linux-aarch64.tar.gz, unpack it, and run ./install.sh.

Each file has a .sha256 file, so you can check your download.

Sayso is free and open source (GPL-3.0). Pay what you want at https://justsayso.app.
