Speak. The text lands where your cursor is.

Scriptus turns speech into clean text in any Mac app: mail, chat, documents or your code editor. Russian and English in one sentence, no switching.

  • macOS 13 or later
  • Apple Silicon
  • Updates itself
A sample run. The site never uses your microphone.

How it works

One key, no windows. Scriptus stays out of your way.

  1. Press the key and speak

    The fn key starts recording; you can change it in settings. A small recording indicator shows that Scriptus is listening.

  2. Let go and the text is ready

    Speech is recognised in a second or two, then commas, full stops and capitals are added and the “um”s are dropped.

  3. Text lands at your cursor

    Scriptus pastes where you were typing. It never presses Enter, so you read and send it yourself.

Your words stay yours

Many tools “improve” what you said and change the meaning. Scriptus adds punctuation and removes hesitations. It never rewords or reorders.

  • Punctuation and capital letters
  • Obvious spelling fixes
  • Only “um”, “uh” and similar hesitations are removed
  • If the result differs suspiciously from what you said, the raw transcript is pasted instead

What you said

um so basically the launch call with marketing is tomorrow at ten uh could you please send the september numbers by tonight

What gets pasted

So, basically, the launch call with marketing is tomorrow at ten. Could you please send the September numbers by tonight?

Transcribe recordings

A call, an interview or a voice note — upload the file in your account or in the app and get text with timestamps.

  • Recordings up to 2 hours: MP3, M4A, WAV, video and more
  • Timestamps, plain text, and export to TXT, SRT and Markdown
  • Transcripts stay with you — in your browser or in the app

What you can count on

  • Nothing is sent on its own

    Scriptus never presses Enter or sends messages. You have the last word.

  • Text is never lost

    If pasting fails, the text stays in the app’s history, one click away from the clipboard.

  • Two languages in one sentence

    Speak Russian with English terms. No layout or language switching.

  • Your own dictionary

    Add names, brands and terms, and Scriptus spells them right.

What is kept, and where

Short answer: we keep neither the audio nor the text of your dictation.

  1. On your Mac

    Dictation history, dictionary and settings. Only you see them, and you can delete them in the app.

  2. In transit through the Scriptus server

    Audio goes to Groq for recognition, text to Claude via OpenRouter for punctuation. The server passes them on and keeps none of it.

  3. In Scriptus accounting

    Numbers only: how many words, how long the recording was, and when. They drive the weekly limit and your stats in the account.

Set up in five minutes

The build is signed with our own certificate for now, so macOS asks you to confirm the first launch.

Download Scriptus-arm64.dmg
System
macOS 13 Ventura or later

Apple Silicon (M1 or later)

Needed for speech recognition
  1. Download and move to Applications

    Open Scriptus-arm64.dmg and drag Scriptus into Applications.

  2. Allow the first launch

    If macOS will not open it: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.

  3. Grant two permissions

    Microphone, to hear you. Accessibility, to paste text into other apps.

  4. Sign in and enter your invite code

    Sign in with your email, here or in the app, and enter the code in your account. Dictation works from then on.

Updates arrive on their own. After an update macOS may ask once for your keychain password — choose “Always Allow”.

Questions and answers

How much does it cost?

During the closed beta, access is by invitation and free. The beta has a weekly word limit; you can see what is left in your account.

How do I get an invitation?

Write to support@scriptus.online and tell us briefly where you plan to dictate. The code arrives in our reply.

Does Scriptus work offline?

No. Recognition runs on the server, so dictation needs a network. History and settings open without one.

What happens to my audio and text?

Audio goes to the Scriptus server and on to Groq for recognition; text goes to Claude for punctuation. The server stores nothing. See the privacy policy for details.

Can Scriptus change the meaning of what I said?

It should not. The cleanup rules allow only punctuation, capitals, spelling fixes and removing “um”s. If the cleaned text differs a lot in length from what you said, the raw transcript is pasted instead.

Why does macOS ask for permissions and a password?

We do not have an Apple Developer certificate yet, so the first launch needs a manual confirmation, and after updates macOS may ask once for your keychain password. Both go away with an Apple certificate.

Which Macs are supported?

Apple Silicon Macs (M1 or later) on macOS 13 Ventura or later. There is no Intel build yet.

How do I delete my account?

In your account, under Profile. Your email, access and usage records are deleted. History on your Mac stays until you delete it in the app.

Need a hand?

The app will not open, the code did not arrive, or text is not pasting? Write to us.
