You think faster than you can type, but on a Mac you still type everything by hand. Viora fixes that. It is a voice AI assistant for macOS that does far more than dictation. You hold one key, say what you want, and the work happens right where your cursor already sits. Most voice tools stop at turning speech into text. Viora reads what you actually mean and then acts on it. It can write fresh text for you, reshape text you already wrote, answer questions about what is on your screen, and run small tasks across the apps you use every day. One shortcut covers all four. Viora is cloud assisted, so your audio and text are processed in the cloud to run each request, and you stay in control of what it keeps. One key, four moves Write. Put your cursor in any text field and talk. Viora turns your speech into clean, punctuated text, trims the filler words, and matches the tone of wherever you are writing, whether that is a quick Slack reply or a careful email to a client. Edit. Highlight a sentence or a whole paragraph and just say the change out loud, like "make this warmer", "cut it in half", or "fix the grammar". Viora rewrites it in place, so you never break your flow to retype. Ask. Point at a line of text or capture what is on your screen, then ask about it. The answer shows up right next to the thing you asked about. No copying, no pasting, no jumping to another window to find a chat box. Do. Hand Viora a small job and let it work. It can search the web, read and update your Calendar and Reminders, check the weather, and run workflows across Gmail, Google Calendar, Notion, and Slack. You say the task once and it gets done. A normal morning with Viora Take Maya, a freelance writer. She opens her laptop, holds her shortcut, and dictates a rough first draft straight into her editor. She selects a clumsy paragraph and says "tighten this up", and it is fixed in seconds. A client email lands with a long brief, so she captures it on screen and asks Viora to pull out the three key deadlines. Before lunch she says "add a call with the design team to my calendar for Thursday at two". She never opened a second app, dug through a menu, or lost her train of thought. That is a normal morning, not a demo. It works everywhere you do Viora waits quietly in the background and wakes the moment you press your shortcut. That means it is ready in your browser, your inbox, your notes, your code editor, and your chat apps, without you switching to a separate window first. Wherever there is a text field, Viora can help you fill it. You learn one shortcut and use it across your whole Mac, instead of learning a new trick for every app. It speaks more languages than you might expect Viora recognizes speech in more than 100 languages. It uses its own speech model for a core set of common languages and a cloud fallback model for the rest, so you can talk the way you naturally would. The app interface and the assistant replies cover a smaller set of languages for now, and that set keeps growing. It remembers what matters to you Names, product terms, the way you like to phrase things, Viora can hold on to all of it, so your text comes out sounding like you wrote it and not like a robot. And you are always in charge. Open the memory panel any time to see exactly what Viora has saved, fix anything that looks off, or wipe it clean. Nothing is hidden from you, and nothing is locked away. Built with privacy in mind Viora is cloud assisted, which means your audio and text are sent to the cloud and handled securely to run each request. Viora does not sell your data, and it does not use your data to train models. For supported tasks, Privacy Mode reduces how much is kept. You decide how much Viora remembers, and you can clear it whenever you like. How Viora sits next to Siri and Raycast People usually weigh Viora against three kinds of tools. Voice to text apps like Wispr Flow and Superwhisper. Apple's own Siri and Dictation. And Mac assistants like Raycast. Siri is great for system tasks, quick questions, device control, and the app actions Apple supports. Raycast is a strong launcher for opening apps, finding files, arranging windows, running commands, and AI workflows, and it has dictation built in too. Viora is built for a different job. It is voice first and made for the writing, editing, and quick tasks you do all day, right inside the app you are already in. Plenty of people keep Siri for Apple tasks, keep Raycast as their launcher, and reach for Viora when real words need to land on the page. One more thing worth knowing. Core dictation with AI cleanup is free and unlimited on Viora, while many voice tools cap free dictation by words per week. Free to start, and free to keep using Open Viora and you land on the free plan right away, with no credit card needed. The free plan runs on a fast model, and core dictation with AI cleanup stays free and unlimited on it. When you want more, Pro is a paid step up with a stronger model and more room to use it. You can see the current price and billing options on the Viora pricing page. Viora runs on macOS today, on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. Getting started takes about a minute First, head to viora.io, download the Mac app, and install it. Next, pick a hold to talk shortcut, the key you press to start talking and release to stop. Then drop your cursor into any text field, in Safari, Mail, Slack, or wherever you happen to be, hold the shortcut, and speak. Viora reads the moment and picks the right move. Finally, glance over any edit or task before you keep it, and tune the memory panel as you go. Tips to get more out of Viora Talk to it the way you would talk to a person. Full sentences like "draft a short reply to this email" or "sum this up in three points" work better than single words. Feed your personal dictionary. Add the names and terms you use a lot, and Viora will spell them right and start to match your style over time. Use it for more than dictation. Try it for quick edits, for asking about a page you are reading, and for small tasks, not just for typing by voice. Check your memory now and then. Open the panel, keep what helps, and delete anything that no longer fits. Start small with tasks. Begin with one simple job like a web search or a calendar check, then build up to longer workflows once it feels natural. Quick answers What is Viora for? Viora is a voice AI assistant for macOS.
