Start with your device. Every guide says what to do, what you'll see and what to check when it doesn't work.

For help choosing a dictation workflow, read the guides.

• Library

    Turn an existing audio file into a meeting with a transcript, speakers and a summary, on Mac or iPhone.

  • Backup, export and import

    Save your notes, meetings, Dictionary, Snippets and Corrections to one file, and bring them into Scribe on another device.

  • Use Scribe with AI agentsMac

    Let Claude, Codex and other AI agents read your meetings, notes and dictation history from your Mac. Read-only, local, and nothing to install.

  • Snippets

    Say a short phrase and Scribe inserts an address, a sign-off or any fixed text, exactly as you wrote it.

• Models & languages

  • Languages

    Dictate in several languages without switching anything. Apple's on-device speech covers the main ones; the optional Parakeet pack adds 25 European languages.

  • Optional models

    Three downloads you can add to Scribe: what each does, how big it is, where it lives, and how to remove it.

• Privacy

    What each permission is for, what Scribe keeps on your device, what it never sends, and how to clear or take your data with you.

• Troubleshooting

  • Troubleshooting

    Quick fixes when the key does nothing, the keyboard will not start, Refine fails, or a language is missing.
