Dictanote vs Wispr Flow

Dictanote is a notes app with speech-to-text for voice-typing notes, supporting recognition in more than 50 languages and 80-plus dialects. Notes can be arranged in notebooks and include checklists, tables, links, search, favorites, and pinned items. AudioScribe transcribes voice notes and rewrites them into clear text, with custom styles, translation, and connections to other apps through Zapier or a webhook. Notes can be accessed and edited offline, but dictation requires an internet connection. Dictanote says browser speech recognition processes dictation without the service receiving or storing audio; notes are stored on its servers for syncing. The free plan costs nothing and allows up to 50 notes in one notebook and 60 minutes of dictation per day. Dictation works in specified versions of Chrome, Edge, and Safari, but not Firefox or Brave. Pro costs $8 a month billed monthly or $60 a year billed yearly.

Wispr Flow is a voice dictation app for Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android. It enters text wherever a cursor can type, including email, messaging, notes, terminals, code editors and AI tools. Flow supports 100+ languages and can detect the spoken language. It can remove filler words, add punctuation, format writing and handle corrections or repeated speech; users can set custom vocabulary and voice commands. Dictation is cloud-based, with controls for data use, sharing preferences and deleting stored data. The free plan allows 2,000 words per week on desktop and 1,000 per week on mobile, and includes a weekly Notetaker limit. Pro costs $12 per user per month with annual billing or $15 per user per month with monthly billing. Team plans add shared dictionaries, snippets and workspaces, centralized billing and user management. Notetaker provides meeting notes, speaker identification, questions across meetings and MCP access for AI tools, but currently works on Mac and Windows; mobile support is planned. Wispr recommends against Bluetooth earbuds because they can reduce dictation accuracy.
