VerbaIDE lives in the menu bar, without a Dock icon. Dictation types into your current app and is free forever, with no word cap.

Download for Mac

The disk image is small. The speech model and the translation dictionaries are downloaded by the app itself, when you need them.

Download the disk image

.dmg · Apple Silicon · macOS 14 and later

What you need
ComputerA Mac with Apple Silicon — M1 or newer
SystemmacOS 14 or later. Apple’s own speech recognition, translation and Apple Intelligence are used from macOS 26; on earlier versions VerbaIDE runs on its own engines.

Windows in progress

The app already works; the installer does not exist yet

This is not a promise for later: the build launches and runs, there is just nothing to hand out yet.

What is left is building the installer and signing the download. The file will appear here as soon as that is done.

What already works
  • Dictation types into any field — Notepad, Edge, the Start menu search
  • Every window draws: the dictation panel, subtitles, the hover panel, the meeting overlay
  • Settings survive a restart
  • The app runs for hours without growing
What you will need
Windows 10 build 19041 or newerOr Windows 11. That floor is not a preference: capturing audio from other apps — without which there are no subtitles and no meeting recording — arrived in Windows with exactly that build.
An x64 processorOn ARM laptops (Snapdragon and similar) the app runs under the built-in emulation, but it computes more slowly: recognition and translation happen on your machine, not in a cloud. A native ARM build is being prepared separately.
Nothing else to installNeither .NET nor the Visual C++ Redistributable is required — the installer is self-contained, verified on a clean system.
