## Features

- **Works offline:** Whisper models run on-device, so dictation works with no Wi-Fi — best performance is on Apple silicon.
- **Custom modes:** Predefined and custom modes adjust tone and formatting per app — message, email, code, and more.
- **Vocabulary memory:** Names, abbreviations, and specialized terms are learned once and remembered.
- **100+ languages:** Multilanguage support with optional translation to English.
