Typeless is an online dictation app for Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone and Android that removes filler words and adapts its tone to the app you are in. Bedrock Dictate does the same kind of cleanup, but it turns your speech into text on your own PC and keeps working without internet.

Typeless processes your audio in real time and says it never stores it in the cloud, with your history kept on your device. Bedrock Dictate does the speech recognition and the cleanup on your own PC, so your recordings are never sent anywhere in the first place.
Bedrock Dictate is built local first. Your dictation history is saved on your PC, and your vocabulary, snippets and styles are backed up to your account so they follow you to a new PC. Your recordings and your words are never part of that.
