Use case
Speak in one language and let a template translate or reshape your words for you.
Starter spell: The Translator · suggested ⌃⌥2
The moment
You can explain the idea perfectly in the language you think in. The slow part is producing the polished version in the language your client, colleague, or audience actually reads.
The Translator is the starter template that lets you dictate in one language and paste polished text in another - copy it from the library or write your own in the app.
One recording, both versions
Raw transcript
um, confirm the delivery date for the fourteenth, uh, thank them for the sample, and ask about pricing for the larger batch
Whisper heard every “um”.

Pasted at your cursor · both versions kept in History
How it plays out
Any Mac app with a text field: mail, chat, a doc, a form. WhisperWizard remembers which app was in front.
One hotkey starts the recording and picks The Translator. Speak the way you would tell a colleague.
Whisper transcribes on your OpenAI account, then the spell's prompt runs on the transcript.
The text is pasted where your cursor was, your previous clipboard is restored, and History keeps both versions with the audio.
The starter spell
Dictate in one language, paste polished text in another.
Translate what I said into natural, conversational French. Match the register I used - formal where I was formal, casual where I was casual. Output only the translation.
Tips
Copy The Translator twice, set one to German and one to Spanish, and give each its own hotkey.
Whisper detects the spoken language on its own. There is no setting to switch before you talk.
The built-in The Translator is on ⌃⌥2. Swap the prompt's target language to English when you think in one language and write in English.
Questions
It uses OpenAI's Whisper, which detects the spoken language automatically and handles the widely spoken languages well. The language that comes out is whatever your template's prompt asks for.
The Translator is told to match your register: formal where you were formal, casual where you were casual. Add "always formal" to the prompt if every message should be.
Five more
Dictate the reply you would have typed and get polished text back, ready to send.
Get a first draft out of your head and onto the page, then refine it with a custom template.
Capture thoughts the moment they happen - every recording is kept for instant replay.
Rest your hands and wrists while your voice keeps the words flowing.
Bind your own prompts to shortcuts so routine writing tasks take one hotkey.
WhisperWizard is macOS only (10.13 or newer on Intel, 11 or newer on Apple Silicon) and runs on your own OpenAI API key - your recordings go straight to OpenAI, we never see or store them on our servers (History keeps its copy on your Mac). The honest comparison says when built-in dictation is already enough.
Every plan includes unlimited custom templates, recording history, and all features - one-time purchase, lifetime usage, and a 14-day money‑back guarantee.
