Speak instead of typing: tap the mic, talk — polished text lands in any app,
in your language. Everything happens on your iPhone: recognition runs on
Apple's large speech model right on the device, and AI cleanup removes filler
words and slips and sets clean punctuation — powered by Apple Intelligence,
right on your iPhone. No account, no server, no tracking: by default, your
dictation goes nowhere. For mixed languages and technical vocabulary there's
optional cloud recognition with your own key; for cleanup without Apple
Intelligence, your existing ChatGPT subscription — both clearly labeled.
The Klartext keyboard is deliberately not a second typing keyboard — it's a
lean dictation panel: a big mic, space, delete, return, and (with AI cleanup
active) your mode right on the keyboard: Message · Email · Note · AI prompt ·
your own modes.
DICTATION THAT DOESN'T CUT OFF
Unlike built-in dictation, recording keeps running when you switch apps: the
keyboard is just the display, the mic lives in the main app. Look something
up, switch apps, come back, tap stop — the text is in your field. And no word
gets lost: recordings stay on your device for up to 24 hours — listen again
or re-transcribe. Can be turned off.
WHY KLARTEXT
• Everything on device: recognition and cleanup run locally — on a plane, in
a dead zone, in the basement
• Private by design: no account, no server, no tracking — your dictation
never leaves your iPhone
• Recognition that learns: correct a word once and your spelling sticks —
dictionary and replacements included
• Custom modes: create up to three of your own, pick them right on the
keyboard; built-in modes can be renamed (with AI cleanup)
• Great for AI prompts: dictate instructions for ChatGPT, Claude, or coding
agents — technical terms stay exactly as you said them
• Read-aloud as a bonus: Klartext reads copied text aloud, even with the
screen locked — pick your voice, optionally OpenAI voices via your own key
(clearly labeled)
• Widgets and stats: words today, dictation streak, weekly overview
• Built in Germany, perfected for German — and takes dictation in many
languages
FAIRLY PRICED
Every week, 2,500 dictated words are free — permanently, no account needed.
If you dictate more, get Klartext Unlimited: $14.99 a year, unlimited words.
One price, one year, cancel anytime — no other tiers. The subscription pays
for development — there is no Klartext server.
WHAT YOUR IPHONE NEEDS
Dictation works on any iPhone running iOS 26. On-device AI cleanup needs
Apple Intelligence (iPhone 15 Pro and newer) — otherwise your ChatGPT
subscription or your own key takes over.
