Native Windows app — local AI

Local AI transcription
on your Windows PC.

Local transcription for Windows. Finally.

Installs on your PC. Runs offline. Your voice data never leaves your machine.

You said

"yeah I'm on Windows and I've tried a bunch of these transcription tools and they're all cloud-based and slow and I just want something that installs locally runs on my PC and actually works without me having to worry about my data going somewhere"

Mumbl output — Documentation

After evaluating multiple transcription tools on Windows, a consistent issue has emerged: all available options rely on cloud processing, resulting in latency and data privacy concerns. The requirement is a locally installed Windows application that processes speech on device with no external data transmission.

The problem with cloud transcription

"It can perform quite well for about an hour, but after taking a break and returning to my computer later, it often becomes sluggish again."

Dragon Professional costs $500+. Dragon Legal costs $700. And development has essentially stopped since Microsoft bought Nuance.

Windows Speech Recognition doesn't clean up filler words or format your text. It's just raw dictation.

Mumbl gives you AI-powered transcription with style formatting, runs locally, and costs a fraction of Dragon.

Frequently asked questions

What are the system requirements?

Windows 10 or 11. Mumbl downloads the Whisper AI model during first setup, then everything runs locally. A modern CPU handles it well — no GPU required.

Is this better than Dragon?

Dragon costs $500-$700, requires weeks of voice training, and gets sluggish after extended use. Mumbl works accurately from day one, runs locally with Whisper AI, and offers a free tier.

Does it work in the system tray?

Yes. Mumbl runs in the background in your system tray. Hit your global hotkey from any app — Word, Outlook, Chrome, Slack, anywhere — and speak. Formatted text pastes right where your cursor is.
