FAQs
Does it paste for me?
No. SayCopyPaste puts your words on the clipboard and you paste them where you want, with ⌘V, Ctrl+V or a tap. Nothing is auto-pasted, so it works in any field that takes a paste.
When do I pay?
Signing in is free, and you make your first transcript before we ask you to pick a plan.
Can I dictate in other languages?
Yes. Speak Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian or Japanese and your transcript comes back in that language, ready to paste, on your Mac, PC, Linux machine, iPhone, iPad or Android phone. There’s no language setting to change: SayCopyPaste works out the language from what you say. Those six and English are the ones we’ve tested. Japanese comes back without most of its punctuation. The one exception is the optional on-device mode for when a phone or tablet is offline, which doesn’t detect the language you speak.
Is there a limit?
No daily or monthly cap. One dictation can run up to about 13 minutes; for more, stop and use Append to add the next part.
What happens to my voice?
It’s sent securely for transcription. We keep the text, never the audio. Your dictations sync to your Bravely Account as text so they show up on your other devices; turn saving off in Settings to keep nothing. Transcribing needs a connection. On iPhone, iPad and Android, a recording made offline waits and is transcribed when you’re back online.
Do my dictations show up everywhere?
Yes, on every device signed in to the same account, and in your browser at saycopypaste.bravely.dev. Each device fetches your newest 200 synced dictations. Your vocabulary stays on the device where you add it.
Can I pick my own key?
On a Mac, choose Globe / Fn or a right-hand modifier, or record any key, like F13. On Windows: Right Alt, Right Shift, Right Ctrl or Right Win. On Linux: Right Alt, Right Ctrl, Right Shift, Right Super, Pause or Scroll Lock. A single tap of Globe on a Mac can open the emoji picker; SayCopyPaste’s Settings show how to stop that.
What do I need on Linux?
64-bit (x64) Linux, as a .deb or an AppImage. The push-to-talk key reads your keyboard directly, so add yourself to the input group once, then log out and back in: sudo usermod -aG input $USER. SayCopyPaste tells you during setup, along with any recording or clipboard tool it needs.
