CONTROLLED DICTATION FOR macOS

Hold Fn.
Speak. It’s written.

Pressay writes and transforms your voice anywhere on macOS. You can see the target, choose the context, and get your clipboard back exactly as it was.

01 / SPEAK

Thought becomes text.

Hold Fn, speak naturally, then release. Pressay transcribes without pulling you away from your work.

02 / TARGET

It knows where to write.

The app, window and field stay visible. The target is verified again at the very last moment.

03 / MEMORY

Your clipboard comes back.

Pressay pastes the result, then restores every format copied before dictation. If you copy meanwhile, your copy wins.

04 / CONTEXT

Nothing is implicit.

You see exactly what may leave your Mac. Local stays local, and every cloud source is explicitly allowed.

ONE SHORTCUT / EVERYWHERE

Wherever you can type,
you can speak.

MESSAGE

Speak freely. Pressay keeps your tone, not your hesitation.

Shall we lock this in tomorrow morning?
MODES / OUTPUT

Your voice stays yours. Its shape adapts.

Faithful keeps your words. Clean removes hesitation. Message, Email, Prompt, Commit or Ticket handle the format when it matters.

AI that shows its hands.

Before cloud processing, Pressay shows every source, character count and authorized payload. Secure fields are rejected before the microphone even opens.

FAQ / NO FINE PRINT

Frequently asked questions

Does Pressay send my voice to its own servers?

No in local/BYOK mode: WhisperKit stays on your Mac and BYOK requests go directly to your chosen provider.

Why does it need Accessibility?

The Direct edition uses it to prove the target and insert text. The App Store Companion remains copy-only.

What happens to my clipboard?

After a successful insertion, Pressay restores every item and format that existed before dictation. A concurrent copy from you always wins.

Will existing users have to pay?

No. Eligible installations receive Pro BYOK for life through a one-time Founding claim.

Hold Fn.
