Offline Dictation Software for Windows
Command Dictate is Windows dictation software that runs entirely on your PC. Speech processing happens locally — no cloud account is required, and no audio is sent to a remote server.
7-day free trial. No account. No credit card.
Why run dictation software offline?
Most dictation tools today route your audio through a remote server before returning a transcript. That works well in many contexts, but it introduces a dependency: working dictation requires an active internet connection and a live external service.
Offline dictation software processes speech locally on your Windows machine. There is no server in the middle. If your internet connection is slow, unreliable, or simply off, the software still works.
For people working with sensitive material — client notes, personal writing, internal documents — local processing also means that voice data never leaves the machine.

Click into a text field, press a hotkey, and speak.
Command Dictate installs on your Windows PC and adds a system-level hotkey. To dictate, click into any standard text field — an email draft, a document, a browser input, a notes app — press the hotkey, and start speaking. The transcribed text is inserted directly into the active field.
