Voice input that never leaves your computer
Press ⌥ Space in any app and speak Chinese, English or both. Arion recognizes your speech on the device and types the text where your cursor is.
Release notes
- Onboarding now asks for one permission at a time.
- The menu bar panel shows the last dictation.
Built for the way you talk at work
Works offline
Speech recognition runs on your device. After the one-time model download, dictation needs no network, and no audio or text is sent anywhere.
Two languages in one sentence
Switch between Chinese and English mid-sentence, the way people talk about code and meetings. You never pick a language first.
Learns from your fixes
Correct a word Arion typed and it applies the fix next time, with an undo. Learned words stay on the device, encrypted.
Download Arion
Builds for macOS 13 or later and an early Windows preview are published on GitHub Releases.
All downloads and checksumsOpen source and self-hosting
Arion is open source under AGPL-3.0 and works without an account. When encrypted sync arrives, you can run the sync relay on your own server instead of ours.
Hosted sync
Encrypted sync between your devices is in development. Join the waitlist for the hosted relay, and we will email you when your access is ready. The relay only ever stores ciphertext.
