Don’t type,
just speak.

Yes. Flow types wherever your cursor is, so it works in every app on your computer with no setup or integrations. Gmail, Slack, iMessage, Notion, your terminal, your code editor, and AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Cursor. If you can type there, you can Flow there.

Built-in dictation transcribes what you say, word for word, including every "um," false start, and mid-sentence correction. Then you spend time cleaning it up. Flow uses the most advanced voice technology available to turn what you say into what you meant to write.

What that looks like in practice:

• Catches your corrections. Say "let's meet at 5... actually 6pm" and built-in dictation writes all of it. Flow gives you "Let's meet at 6pm."
• Formats as you speak. Numbered lists, paragraphs, structured emails. Built-in dictation gives you a wall of text; Flow gives you something ready to send.
• Gets uncommon names and terms right. Flow uses your personal dictionary and context to nail names, acronyms, and jargon, and it gets more accurate the more you use it.
• Works everywhere. Siri only works on Apple devices. Google voice typing has improved its cleanup, but the best version is limited to the Google ecosystem and the newest devices. Flow is one tool with the same accuracy and personalization in every app, on every device.

Yes, Flow supports 100+ languages.

For the best accuracy, select the specific language you're speaking at that moment rather than relying on auto-detect. If you switch between languages during the day, the language picker lives right in the Flow bar, so changing is one click away. See using Flow with multiple languages for how to set it up.

Yes. Flow is built to handle a wide range of accents and speaking styles. One tip that makes a real difference: select only the language you're speaking right now, and deselect the others.

If you speak English with a French accent, having both English and French selected can confuse Flow about which language it's hearing.

Selecting just English while you're speaking English gives you noticeably better accuracy, and when you switch to French, changing languages is one click in the Flow bar. See using Flow with multiple languages for more information.

Flow keeps up with fast talkers and can handle speech as quiet as a whisper. The main thing that matters is your microphone setup: your built-in mic works great, and the closer the mic is to your mouth, the quieter you can speak.

We recommend against AirPods and other Bluetooth earbuds for dictation, since they compress audio and can miss the start of what you say. See our microphone guide for the full rundown.

No. Your built-in microphone is all you need. If you want to dictate very quietly or in loud environments, a mic closer to your mouth helps, and our microphone guide covers the best options.

One note: AirPods and Bluetooth earbuds are the one setup we'd avoid, since they tend to hurt accuracy.
