Push-to-talk voice interface for developers and power users.
Low-latency transcription with deterministic control.
HOLD TO SPEAK
Designed for workflows that demand speed and accuracy.
Speech appears in real-time. Partial results stream instantly. Final transcripts land in milliseconds.
Push-to-talk by design. No ambient listening, no accidental transcription. The mic stays cold.
Define substitutions, reject patterns, and overrides. Your words, your rules. No probabilistic guessing.
Runs natively on macOS, Windows, and Linux. A real desktop application for real work.
Activate with push-to-talk. ColdMic only listens when you explicitly tell it to.
Partial transcription streams in real-time. See your words as you speak them.
Deterministic substitutions and reject filters clean up your transcript automatically.
Final transcript goes where you need it — clipboard, file, todo, or custom action.
Route your voice to the right destination.
