System requirements

Windows

	Minimum	Recommended
System	Windows 10, 64-bit	Windows 11
Graphics card	NVIDIA GTX 750 Ti (2 GB)	NVIDIA GTX 1660 or RTX 2060, or newer (6 GB)
Processor	Intel Core i3-8100 or AMD Ryzen 3 2200G	Intel Core i5-10400 or AMD Ryzen 5 3600, or newer
RAM	8 GB	16 GB
Storage	600 MB	3 GB

An NVIDIA card gets the high-accuracy model. Without one, including AMD and Intel graphics, it uses a smaller model on the processor, which is less accurate and takes longer. Windows on ARM isn't supported.

macOS

	Minimum	Recommended
System	macOS 12 Monterey	The latest macOS
Chip	Any Intel Mac that runs macOS 12	Apple M1 or newer
Graphics	Not used on Intel	Built into the Apple chip
RAM	8 GB	16 GB
Storage	600 MB	1.5 GB

Apple chips get the high-accuracy model. Intel Macs use the smaller one. It needs Microphone and Device Control and Data Access permission (called Accessibility on older macOS), which is what lets it notice the hotkey and type into other apps. Updates aren't automatic on a Mac: murmrrr tells you when there's a new one.

You'll also need a microphone. The internet is only for downloading, the speech model on first launch, updates, and checking your licence at least once every 7 days.

What murmrrr uses: sitting idle, almost no processor, about 500 MB of RAM, and about 1 GB of video memory if it's on a graphics card. An 11 second clip turns into text in under a second on a graphics card, and in a second or two on a good processor.

Team

£400 once, for 5 computers

One key, 5 seats, one email to manage them. For a small firm, clinic or agency that wants dictation that never leaves the building.

Ask about Team

Half price if you need it. Students, teachers, and anyone who uses dictation because typing is hard, for RSI, dyslexia, a motor condition or anything else, pay half on any plan. Send a message and say so. No proof needed.

Your licence key arrives by email straight after you buy, with an Activate button that opens murmrrr with the key filled in. Or copy the key, download murmrrr below and open it: it finds the key you copied, so you just click Activate. One key works on one computer at a time (5 on Team), and you can move it to another up to 3 times in any 30 days.

Is this safe?

No fake buttons, ads, redirects, countdowns or bundled extras.

Who made it

Elliot, a solo developer. You can reach me through the support form.

Where your voice goes

Nowhere. It's processed on your computer. More on the privacy page.

What it accesses, and why

The microphone, to hear you. It's only open while you dictate, unless you turn on Keep microphone warm.
A keyboard shortcut listener, to know when you hold the hotkey.
Device Control and Data Access on a Mac (called Accessibility on older macOS), to notice the hotkey and type into other apps.

What it doesn't do

No keystroke logging. It only reacts to its own shortcuts, and stores no keys.
No screen capture.
No uploading your voice.
No selling data. There are no analytics in the app at all.

Easy to remove

Changed your mind? murmrrr has an Uninstall button on its About tab that removes everything.

About those warnings

Windows may show a SmartScreen warning and macOS may say the app is from an unidentified developer. That's because murmrrr isn't code-signed yet, not because something is wrong. Here's how to get past each one.
