Speak, and VIP types for you

Hold a hotkey to record. Release it, and the recognized text appears at your cursor. Faster than typing, lighter than a dictation suite.

Core Features

Built for fast everyday input

Everything needed for voice input, without extra workflow or account friction.

Fast recognition

Release the hotkey and text is usually inserted in under a second, with live subtitle preview while recording.

🎯

Types at your cursor

VIP pastes the result into the focused text field and restores your clipboard afterward.

🌍

Multiple ASR languages

Switch recognition language in settings: Mandarin, English, Japanese, Cantonese, Traditional Chinese, or Korean.

🔑

Custom hotkey

Bind Ctrl, Shift, Alt, Win, or Cmd with A-Z and F1-F12 keys.

🖥️

Live overlay

A compact floating overlay shows recording state, volume feedback, and partial recognition text.

🔇

Mute while recording

Optionally mute system audio during recording so speakers do not leak into the microphone.

📋

History and stats

Save recognition history locally, copy previous entries, and export everything to a text file.

🚀

Start on login

Run quietly in the tray on Windows or as a LaunchAgent on macOS.

🪶

Lightweight

No installer framework or runtime dependency. The Windows build is only a few megabytes.

How It Works

Start in three steps

The default built-in server works out of the box. Advanced users can switch backend in settings.

1

Download and run

Download the build for your platform and launch it. VIP appears in the system tray or menu bar.

2

Use defaults or configure

The built-in backend needs no account. To use Volcano Engine instead, enter your App ID and Access Token in settings.

3

Hold the hotkey and speak

Default hotkey: Ctrl + Left Win on Windows, Ctrl + Cmd on macOS. Release to insert text.
