Private voice typing for Mac
Private dictation for English, Filipino, and everything in between. Built for your Mac.

A 35-second look at a more useful dictation day.
Say it your way. Keep your flow. Bulong is private dictation for English, Filipino, and everything in between, built for your Mac.
Find your words again. Home shows speaking pace, estimated time saved, a daily streak, and searchable history with app icons.
Save names and preferred spellings in Dictionary. Corrections apply to recognized text; they do not train the speech engine.
Say a snippet trigger on its own to insert a sign-off or other saved plain text. Choose Light, Dark, or System appearance.
Speech is processed on your Mac. Model downloads, license checks, and optional updates use the internet. Join the launch list at bulong.app. Public launch is in preparation.
A small habit, a useful shortcut
One initial setup. Then a shortcut that fits into your day.
Download the speech model, allow microphone and Accessibility access, and choose your dictation key. No AI account or API key.
Place your cursor in a text field. Press your key to start, speak, and press it again to finish.
Bulong inserts the text into compatible Mac apps. If insertion fails, copy the result instead. Always check names and numbers before sending.
Permission setup and the first model download need a little time. Speech processing works locally after the model is ready.
Your vocabulary, reusable text, and past dictations, close at hand.
Set a preferred spelling and the words Bulong should replace. Corrections happen after recognition, on your Mac.
Save a sign-off or another piece of plain text. Say its trigger as the entire dictation to insert the content exactly as saved.
Search saved transcripts, copy a result, and see the app it came from. Check your speaking pace, estimated time saved, and daily streak.
Native interface previews with sample data. Statistics use saved history; estimated time saved uses a 40 WPM typing baseline and excludes editing and processing time.
The speech model runs locally. Audio and transcript text are not part of subscription checks.
Search, copy, export, or clear saved transcripts. History is stored locally and is unencrypted.
Model downloads, license checks, and optional update checks need the internet. That is separate from processing your speech.

Bulong aims to insert into the active text field using macOS Accessibility. Some apps, secure fields, remote desktops, and unusual editors may prevent insertion. You can copy your transcript if needed. Compatibility is part of the release testing, not a promise that every field will work.
No dictation tool gets every word right. Bulong is being tested for everyday English, Filipino, and mixed speech. We haven’t published a completed accuracy benchmark yet. Try your own phrases during the trial and check names, numbers, and anything important.
Yes for setup, model downloads, and periodic subscription checks. Once its model is ready, speech is processed on your Mac. Paid access has a limited offline verification period, not an unlimited offline lifetime license.
An Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 14 or newer. Model size, memory needs, and measured performance will be listed with the tested public release. Intel Macs are not in the initial launch.
Mac comes first. Other platforms are being considered, not released or dated. A browser or iPhone companion would record, transcribe, and copy inside its own app; it would not offer the same system-wide Mac experience.
No. Dictation inserts text; you review it and decide when to send. Bulong is not a substitute for checking the content.
Less friction between thought and text
