Codictate vs Allston Labs

Press a button, speak, and your words are transcribed and pasted into whatever app you're using. No internet required. No account. No data leaves your phone. Codictate is AI dictation that runs entirely on your device. The AI models run locally on your iPhone's Neural Engine and CPU, so your voice is never used to train AI models. HOW IT WORKS Codictate installs a system keyboard with a Dictate button. Tap it, speak, and on-device AI transcribes your speech in real time. The transcript is then inserted into your current text field. Two AI speech engines are included: - Parakeet TDT v3: Runs on the Neural Engine. Fast, lightweight, 95.7% accuracy on clean English audio. - Whisper base (quantized): Runs on CPU as a fallback. Multilingual support with a 57 MB model. You pick which AI model fits your needs. Switch anytime in settings. PRIVACY Everything runs on-device. Audio is never uploaded. There is no server, no analytics, no telemetry. Your recordings stay on your phone and are discarded after transcription. AI dictation without the cloud. FEATURES - On-device AI transcription (no internet needed) - System keyboard with one-tap dictation - Parakeet TDT v3 (Neural Engine, fast) - Whisper base-q5_1 (CPU, multilingual) - Works in any app that accepts keyboard input - Live Activity indicator while recording - Action Button and Shortcuts support REQUIREMENTS - iPhone with iOS 17.0 or later - Apple Silicon (Neural Engine required for Parakeet) - Approximately 57 MB for Whisper model or 500 MB for Parakeet model
