Voice Anywhere puts the words in the app in front instead. It never types into password fields or presses Return, and ⌥ ⇧ ⌘ Space speaks commands to SwarmPane.
Voice Anywhere is in Labs and off by default while its last checks finish. It needs macOS Accessibility permission.
Offline or out of credits? It falls back to your Mac.
SwarmPane cloud is the default. When it can’t be used, dictation runs on your Mac with Whisper, and the app tells you why.
Whisper large v3 turbo is multilingual and detects the language as you speak. Whisper Base and Whisper Turbo are multilingual too, but SwarmPane runs them in English for now. Our own measurements so far are in English.
One credit is one minute of cloud voice, billed by the second. Credits reset each billing period and don’t roll over.
Where does the audio go? Nowhere it’s kept.
Transcribed, then dropped.
Cloud voice sends each recording to SwarmPane’s service, where Whisper large v3 turbo transcribes it on Cloudflare Workers AI. Neither the audio nor the text is stored or logged.
Not used for training.
Cloudflare does not use the audio or the text to train models.
Counted, never read.
To count credits the service keeps the seconds you used. Each request’s log has its length, timing and outcome, never its words.
Or keep it on your Mac.
With Whisper on your Mac the audio never leaves it. The first cloud dictation says “Voice uses SwarmPane cloud. Audio is never stored.” and offers on-device voice in one click.
