About Sprich

What is Sprich?

Sprich is a native Mac dictation app. It can run fully on the Mac, or through a cloud model with an API key. The launch deal is $59 once after 7 days free, and no credit card is required to start.

What Sprich does

Press fn + Shift, speak, and release. The text lands in the focused field. Literal mode removes fillers and false starts and fixes grammar, and it keeps the wording, tone, and language. Formal mode rewrites the same thought as polished prose and adapts to the app. Custom mode takes a system prompt. Whisper large-v3 and Gemma 3 1B run on Apple Silicon. Audio stays in memory, is never written to disk, and never leaves the device. It works offline, including on a plane. Cloud keys on the page are Groq, ElevenLabs, OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and Deepgram. Keys live in Keychain, and Sprich never proxies and never adds a margin.

Who Sprich is for

Phase 1 is Sprich Individual, the Mac app for writers, founders, and developers. Phase 2 is Sprich Business, a team variant for organisations, with admin controls and DACH-grade compliance.

How Sprich works

Start a 7-day trial with no credit card. Local mode uses Whisper and Gemma on Apple Silicon, with no subscription and no usage costs. Switch to a cloud key anytime. The call goes straight from the Mac to the provider. On a Groq or ElevenLabs free tier, the FAQ says typical use is $0 a month. Checkout is LemonSqueezy, with a VAT-compliant invoice. The price is $59 one-time for 1 Mac seat, with all updates on the current major version, and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
