Typeless vs Voicy

Typeless

• People who dictate on both desktop and phone, including Linux users
• Editing existing text by voice, not only dictating new text
• Users who do not want their audio stored in the cloud

Voicy

• People who want one dictation plan across computer, browser and phone
• Dictating long emails, documents and AI prompts
• Students and people with disabilities, who can ask for 20% off

Typeless

• The Free plan has a weekly word limit, and the vendor does not publish the number on its pricing page.
• Monthly billing costs $30 per member, against $12 per member per month on the yearly plan.
• Cloud sync across devices, team management and usage analytics need Pro.
• SSO, SCIM, audit logs and enforced HIPAA controls are Enterprise only.

Voicy

• There is no free plan. The trial ends after 30 minutes of recording time, which Voicy attributes to the cost of cloud processing.
• It has no offline mode, as the vendor's own comparison tables state; speech is transcribed in the cloud.
• The Team plan needs at least 3 users, and the page does not say whether its $6.79 price is billed monthly or annually.
• The money-back guarantee covers only the first 7 days after purchase.

Typeless

Dictation with auto-editing

Removes filler words such as "um" and "you know", cuts repeated words and keeps only your final wording when you change your mind mid-sentence.

Automatic formatting

Spoken lists, steps and key points are laid out as formatted text, so a dictated message or document needs less cleanup.

Speak to edit

Select any text and say what you want done to it, such as making it shorter or longer or changing its tone.

Ask anything

Select text and ask by voice for a summary, an explanation or a translation, without switching to another app.

Personal style and dictionary

Adapts to your tone, phrasing and writing habits, supports a different tone for each app and keeps a personal dictionary of your terms.

Privacy controls

Typeless says audio is processed in real time and never stored, dictation history stays on your device and data is never used for training. It lists ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA.

Voicy

Dictation in any app

Press a keyboard shortcut and speak, and the text appears where the cursor is: in Word, Outlook, Slack, a browser or a terminal. More than 50 languages are detected automatically.

Automatic punctuation and formatting

Punctuation and formatting are added to the transcript without spoken cues. The changelog also lists punctuation commands and finer control over formatting rules.

Rewrite mode and custom modes

Rewrite mode uses AI to edit or rewrite text and shows its response in a floating window. Custom modes can be created, and one can be set to run by default.

Dictionary and text replacement

The app includes a dictionary, doubled in size in version 2.4.5, and a text replacement mode that also handles multi-line replacements.

File transcription

Besides live dictation, Voicy transcribes existing audio files. The feature arrived in version 2.2.0 in May 2026.

Phone keyboard and browser extension

On iPhone, a Voicy keyboard dictates into any app. The Chrome extension also works in Brave, Edge, Opera, Arc and Vivaldi.
