Your words are transcribed and pasted into your active app before you even move your hand.
Speed
Cloud-based dictation adds network latency, server processing time, and response delays. Just Parley runs entirely on your Mac and transcribes while you talk — so your words are ready about a second after you stop speaking.
Cloud dictation tools upload your audio and wait for a server: 200-800ms of latency before processing even starts. Just Parley transcribes on your Mac while you talk, so there's nothing left to wait for but your last sentence.
Cloud services throttle, queue, or disconnect during peak hours. Just Parley runs on your Mac's CPU — consistent speed, every time, no matter what.
every time, guaranteed
The moment transcription finishes, text is pasted into your active app. No confirmation dialog, no intermediate window. Hold key, speak, release, done.
No internet needed. No audio uploaded. No server to depend on. Your voice stays on your Mac, and the model runs on your CPU.

Data sent to the cloud
Your speech is processed while you talk; text lands about a second after you stop. No spinner, no upload. This is what real-time actually means.
No cloud means no latency from network calls, no privacy risks, and no dependence on servers that might be slow or down.
English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Cantonese — all transcribed as you speak, all processed locally.
Slack, VS Code, Notion, Mail, Chrome — clipboard paste means it works everywhere. No app-specific plugins.
