About

ListenIn is a system-wide AI dictation app for Mac that turns rambling spoken input, triggered by tapping fn, into cleaned-up text or structured prompts for apps like Claude Code, Cursor, and Mail. It strips filler words, false starts, and mid-sentence corrections while keeping intended meaning, handles mixed Chinese-English speech, and offers multiple output modes (verbatim, standard, refined, translate). The free tier includes 8,000 words per week.

What it does

The site, which calls the app Ducduc throughout, says speech is recognised on the Mac by Apple's own engine, and the recognised text is then tidied by a hosted service, by a provider the user supplies a key for, or by a local Ollama model in Offline mode.
