Hold down a keyboard shortcut (Control Command G), speak naturally, and release. GhostWriter transcribes your audio, intelligently cleans and formats the text, and pastes it directly into the active application. It automatically handles punctuation and formatting, and adapts its output to the context, whether that's a professional email or a code editor.
You can speak with natural filler words, hesitations, and self-corrections without changing your speaking style. GhostWriter works with popular software such as VS Code, Claude, ChatGPT, Gmail, Notion, Arc, Figma, Notes, and Messenger.

GhostWriter is free to start with no credit card required. GhostWriterPro adds a dictionary, snippets, statistics, style adjustments, and vibe coding settings for power users.
