No cloud

Audio is transcribed in memory, on your machine. It never leaves.

No account

Dictate without signing up — you sign in at my.microo.io only to buy or manage a license.

No telemetry

Microo never phones home. Not once.

i · The problem

Most dictation ships your voice to someone else’s computer.

Wispr, Otter, Aqua stream your words to a server farm — transcribed there, stored there, trained on there. You never see the round-trip. You just trust it.

The loop closes on your desk. Nothing crosses the edge of your machine.

ii · Pain, metPain, met

Six snags. Six answers.

  1. 01
    The snag

    Raw transcripts read like transcripts — “so, um, i think we should like ship it tuesday.”

    Microo

    A local model rewrites each take into clean, punctuated prose before it lands.

    Cleanup
  2. 02
    The snag

    Transcribe in one window, then copy, paste, reformat into another.

    Microo

    Microo types the finished text straight into whatever app you’re in. No clipboard relay.

    Inject anywhere
  3. 03
    The snag

    Generic dictation mangles names, jargon, and code.

    Microo

    1,073 curated terms, plus the ones it learns from you — all spelled right.

    Dictionary
  4. 04
    The snag

    One tone everywhere — formal mail, loose chat, same flat voice.

    Microo

    Per-app style: formal where you’re formal, casual where you’re not.

    Style
  5. 05
    The snag

    No signal, no dictation. The tunnel, the plane, the locked-down office.

    Microo

    Microo never needs the internet. Plane, basement, air-gapped network — same speed.

    Offline
  6. 06
    The snag

    Fifteen a month, forever, for software that holds your data hostage.

    Microo

    Buy it once. It’s yours — no renewal, no data to ransom back.

    Pay once
iii · The loopThe loop

Press. Speak. It’s written.

  1. i

    Hold the key

    Press your hotkey. A pill appears at the screen’s edge and listens.

  2. ii

    Say the thing

    Talk naturally — German, English, or both. Correct yourself mid-sentence.

  3. iii

    Let go

    Release. Clean text lands where your cursor was, in under a second.

iv · Up closeUp close

Built like a tool you’d keep open.

Cleanup

What you said, and what lands.

Raw speech, clean output, and a sharper rewrite on request — the cleanup model runs on your GPU. Polish costs milliseconds, not privacy.

  • Filler and false starts removed
  • Punctuation and casing handled
  • Optional rewrite for register
Cleanup — Microo
The ledger

A quiet record, kept on your disk.

Words, pace, a ninety-day heatmap, your records. Every figure is computed and stored locally — nowhere else.

  • Ninety-day activity heatmap
  • Personal records and streaks
  • Keep forever or wipe on close
The ledger — Microo
The pill

A mark, not a panel.

A single warm capsule rests at the screen’s edge and breathes with your voice. No chrome, no clutter.

  • Floats over any app
  • A live waveform, not a spinner
  • Gone the instant you’re done
The pill — Microo

v · The moat

It physically can’t leak.

Privacy you can verify — architecture, not promises.

On-device by design
Models load into your machine’s memory and run there. No datacenter in the loop.
No network in the path
Record, transcribe, clean, inject — none of it opens a connection.
Your history, your file
Everything lives in a local SQLite file you own, and can wipe.
Honest about what ships
Open-weight Whisper and Qwen, downloaded once, run offline forever.

vi · For businessFor business

Compliance by architecture, not by checkbox.

When data never leaves the device, the hardest line of the audit answers itself — there is no vendor cloud to assess.

Legal

Privilege stays privileged. Nothing leaves the device.

Healthcare

PHI never crosses the wire. No BAA to negotiate.

Finance

MNPI stays on the desk, off third-party servers.

Public sector

Air-gapped by default. Runs with no internet at all.

“I dictate my PR descriptions now. The cleanup reads like I wrote it carefully, not like I mumbled into a laptop.”

x · QuestionsQuestions

Before you download.

What happens after the 7 days?
Microo asks for a license. Buy one at my.microo.io, then sign in inside the app with your account — or paste a key. Dictation unlocks for good; nothing you’ve written goes anywhere, and nothing is deleted.
Do I need an account?
Not to dictate. The app and the 7-day trial need no sign-up at all. You create an account at my.microo.io only to buy a license and manage your devices.
Does anything reach the internet?
Only the one-time model download during setup and the license check after you buy. The recording-to-text loop never touches a network.
What are the system requirements?
64-bit Windows 10 or 11. A recent NVIDIA GPU is recommended for sub-second transcription; it runs on the CPU too, a little slower. About 3 GB for the models.
Which languages?
German and English out of the box, including switching mid-sentence. Others via additional Whisper models.
Is it really one-time?
Yes. One payment, no subscription. Your license covers every update within the major version.
Can we use it across a company?
Yes — that’s the Business license: volume keys, offline activation, MSI deployment, and an invoice your finance team will recognise.
Refunds?
The 7-day trial is the entire app, so you’ll know before you pay. If something’s wrong afterwards, email us.

Your words. Your machine. Nobody else’s.

Seven days, the whole app, no account. Feel the difference between a tool that listens and one that reports back.
