Freeway is a voice-to-text app for Mac

Press a hotkey, start talking, and Freeway instantly turns your speech into text. When you release the hotkey, the text is automatically inserted into whatever your typing cursor is — any app, any website, anywhere. Speaking is 4 times faster than typing. Freeway removes friction, boosts your flow, and lets you express ideas at the speed they appear in your mind.

🆓 Totally free

Freeway is free for a reason: voice technology should belong to everyone, not just to people who can afford subscriptions.

«This isn't voice recognition — this is magic»

This speed comes from running NVIDIA Parakeet v3, a state-of-the-art multilingual automatic speech recognition model optimized specifically for Apple Silicon through CoreML.

Everything happens on your Mac — no cloud, no round trips, no internet required. It feels less like speech recognition and more like the computer is completing your sentence as you say it.

Private by design

Your voice never leaves your Mac - not a single byte. Freeway runs entirely on-device, processing everything through Apple Neural Engine.

Privacy-first Freeway - voice-to-text app for your Mac

There are no cloud uploads, and nothing stored anywhere. Because nothing is sent out, nothing can be intercepted, sold, analyzed, or leaked. Privacy isn't a feature here - it's the foundation. You speak → Freeway listens → text appears → end of story.

🌱 Eco-friendly

Eco-friendly Freeway - running locally on your Mac

Traditional voice models rely on huge cloud GPU clusters that burn megawatts of energy just to turn speech into text. Freeway uses none of that. All computation happens directly on your Mac, using efficient Apple Silicon or Intel hardware.

No cloud calls → no wasted energy → near-zero environmental footprint. Good for your workflow, and good for the planet.
