Where Lispr is going.
Lispr is small on purpose — but that doesn't mean it stands still. Here's what's shipped, what we're building right now, and what comes next. No fixed dates — we publish a date once we trust it.
Available now
What you can install today.
Lispr for macOS
Live · 41 releases inThe original — where Lispr started.
- macOS 11 Big Sur or newer, Apple Silicon & Intel — ~4 MB, menu-bar only
- ~99 languages auto-detected, switching mid-sentence

- ~300 ms median end-to-end since streaming uploads landed in 0.41
- Smart sentence joining, clipboard-safe, Sparkle auto-updates
Lispr for Windows

- C# / .NET 8 with WPF — small native bundle, no Chromium tax
- Azure Trusted Signing for a clean SmartScreen install
- Velopack for delta auto-updates (the Sparkle equivalent on Windows)
- Same Whisper-on-edge transcription path — your existing macOS account-free model applies
Designed, queued
Architecture decided, plan written, build hasn't started.
Lispr for iPhone & iPad
DesignediOS has no global hotkey — so Lispr lives as a system keyboard you switch to. Universal app, both phone and iPad on day one.
- Custom system keyboard with a big mic button — works in any app that takes text input
- Container app for permissions, history, and your usage stats
- Free, App Store-distributed, no account
Lispr for Android
DesignedAndroid does support a global trigger — via an Accessibility Service and an overlay bubble, like Wispr Flow ships now.
- Floating mic bubble you can move anywhere on screen
- Accessibility Service inserts text into whichever app you're focused on
- Play Store-only first; sideloading later
Investigating, not committed
Things we'd like to do if they make sense. Tell us if any of these matter to you.
- Custom vocabulary. Names, technical jargon, brand spellings — the words Whisper consistently mis-hears. Per-user, on-device hint dictionary.
- Voice commands beyond dictation. "New line", "delete that", "open Slack" — short imperatives that go through a command parser instead of the transcription path.
- Public API. The Lispr edge proxy as a service for other developers who want sub-300 ms transcription with our latency and privacy posture, without running their own Groq integration.
- Team dictation. Shared custom vocabularies and usage reporting for design / dev / legal teams that all use Lispr.
Deliberately not building
These cut against what Lispr is. Saying so explicitly so no one waits for them.
- Always-listening mode. Push-to-talk is the model. Listening in the background is a different product with different privacy trade-offs — not ours.
- Cloud storage of your transcripts. Your dictations live where you typed them. Lispr forgets the audio the second the text comes back; we're not adding a "history in the cloud" feature.
- User accounts. No sign-up, no password, no profile. There's nothing to log into because there's nothing to log into — and we want to keep it that way.
- Ads or analytics built into the app. The desktop app sends audio to be transcribed and that's it. No event pings, no funnel telemetry.
