JustType
JustType is a focused Mac app for manual audio transcription, built for recordings where speech-to-text is not accurate enough or not available for the language you work with.
Manual transcription, without cloud dependency
Automatic transcription can be useful, but it still struggles with many languages, dialects, accents, noisy recordings, overlapping speakers, and specialized terminology. JustType provides a clean workspace for careful human transcription.

Privacy
JustType is designed for local manual transcription. The app does not require an account, does not upload audio for transcription, and does not depend on cloud speech-to-text processing. Your audio files and transcript data remain on your Mac unless you choose to move, export, share, or back them up through another service.
