Understands corrections
‘To John… no, Mary’ becomes one correct sentence, not a transcript of your hesitation.
Voice-to-text that understands intent
Speak the way you think — with ums, detours and corrections. Blatero writes what you meant in the app you were already using.
Chaotic input → clear result
‘To John… no, Mary’ becomes one correct sentence, not a transcript of your hesitation.
Word, Slack, Safari, Xcode or Terminal. Blatero chooses the safest insertion route for each app.
Parakeet and the default refiner run locally. Cloud exists only as an explicit bring-your-own-key option.
Eight European languages, detected automatically. Professional code-switching stays intact.
Command Mode · visible from start to finish
Press once, speak naturally and stop talking. Blatero detects the ending, shows the bounded action first and then performs it.

Features
The refiner understands ‘no’, ‘sorry’, ‘I mean’, restarts and repetitions while protecting names, identifiers, URLs and numbers.
Say new paragraph, comma, question mark, list or an emoji. Choose per profile whether Blatero adds a final period.
Dictate writes at the cursor, Rewrite changes selected text from your spoken instruction, Note saves locally and Prompt protects structure and technical terms.
Open apps, validated websites in a named browser, pre-approved Shortcuts, System Settings or Downloads. One press is enough: Blatero finishes automatically after silence.
Capture microphone and Mac audio separately, distinguish speakers locally and keep only the transcript text. Temporary audio is deleted after processing.
The focus-safe capsule uses a real waveform to show that Blatero hears you, then displays live words, the exact action, the result or a complete error.
Lexicon, correction memory, profiles, snippets, settings, notes and a short-lived handoff buffer sync as text through your private CloudKit database. Audio never does.
Sparkle checks the Stable or Beta feed. Updates are EdDSA-signed, notarised by Apple and installed only with your approval.
Adjust hotkeys, Isla, models, cloud choice and insertion strategy per app. The core works locally without an account, cloud or telemetry.
Local by default
Audio is never stored and never leaves your device. The 600 ms deadline also means a model can never hold you hostage: the deterministic fallback inserts immediately.
