Amical is an open-source, local-first AI dictation app for macOS and Windows that transcribes speech with Whisper and enhances it with LLMs (local via Ollama or cloud). It auto-formats dictated text contextually for the focused app and includes note-taking, custom vocabulary, and MCP integrations.
Use cases
- dictate text instead of typing
- transcribe voice to text offline
- take meeting notes with voice
- write emails and messages by voice
- run speech-to-text locally for privacy
- dictate code comments and jira tickets
When to choose
- you want private, offline dictation with local Whisper models
- you need context-aware formatting across different apps
- you prefer open source and self-hosted AI tooling
When to avoid
- you need Linux or web-only dictation
- you require enterprise SSO/SAML on the free tier
- you want a fully cloud-managed transcription service
