Questions
Is my voice uploaded?
Vlow is local-first: speech recognition runs on your Mac. AI polishing is optional — only when you turn it on is the recognised text sent to a cloud model for polishing. With it off, Vlow uses the on-device result.
Which systems are supported?
Mac only for now: Apple silicon with macOS 14 or later.
How does it work?
Press F2 in any app and start talking. A floating one-line capsule shows confirmed text in white and still-recognising text in blue. When you finish, polished text is pasted into the current app. Measured: a 2-minute recording produced polished text about 1 second after stopping (Apple silicon).
What output modes are there?
Verbatim, Natural and Formal, plus Translate, Prompt and Commit-message modes.
What are “Note this down” and “Calculate”?
Say “note this down…” and Vlow saves it as a quick note. Say “calculate…” and the sum is worked out on your Mac and the answer shown right away.
What does F3 do?
Select some text, press F3 and say how to change it (for example “make it more formal”). Vlow rewrites the selection accordingly.
How much does it cost?
Dictation is free forever. Pro is ¥99 (CNY) one-time at the early-bird price, use it on up to 2 Macs, and new users can try every Pro feature free for 7 days. To buy, sign in inside the app and click “Buy” there. Questions? Email zhuhuajun@zyqpai.cn.
