Dictation for Windows
“Your exact words.”
Nothing rewritten.
Press a key, talk, press it again. What you said lands wherever you're typing, word for word. Most dictation tools now polish what you say into what they think you meant. rawflo doesn't.
What AI clean-up does to your words
Most dictation apps now pass what you say through an AI that tidies it. It drops the ums, smooths the sentences and decides what you meant. Pick an example to see what that costs.
You say
“Um, I think the bug's in the retry logic, maybe the backoff, but I'm not sure. Have a look before you change anything.”
Typical AI dictation: what it thinks you meant
(taken out: Um, I think )the bug's in the retry logic, (taken out: maybe)(put in: likely) the backoff(taken out: , but I'm not sure. Have a look before you change anything.)(put in: . Please review it.)
Your doubt is gone, and so is "look first". The AI goes ahead and changes things.
rawflo: exactly what you said
Um, I think the bug's in the retry logic, maybe the backoff, but I'm not sure. Have a look before you change anything.
The AI knows you're not sure, and looks before it touches anything.
Word for word, the same as what you said
Why I built rawflo
I stopped using my dictation app because it kept changing what I said. I'd be trying to get something across to my coding AI, the frustration, the “listen up, do it this way”, and it would tidy it into something polite and flat. The meaning went with it. Vibe coding needs that rawness. So I built my own: press once, talk with your hands free, press again, and exactly what I said goes in.

Punctuation is the only thing added. Everything else is what you said.
Why rawflo
Exact.
What you say is what lands. Nothing rewritten, nothing tidied, nothing guessed. Punctuation is the only thing added, and the ums are your call.
0.38s
Fast.
Your words go up while you talk, so they're back about a third of a second after you stop. Talk for three minutes and they're still back in under a second.
$5US
Fair price.
A month when it opens, with 5 hours of talking included. Go past it and it's $1 an hour, up to a limit you set, so the bill never surprises you.
Nothing lost
Every recording is saved on your PC before it's sent. If something fails, try it again from the menu.
Hands free
Press once and talk with your hands free, for up to an hour. Press again and the words land wherever you're typing. No holding a key down.
Your history stays yours
Your words and recordings are kept on your PC. rawflo doesn't store them on its servers.
10 MB
Small and out of the way. While you talk, a thin strip shows it's listening, or shrink it to a dot.
Ums are your call
Keep them for a true record, or switch them off. Off drops the fillers and changes nothing else.
For when your words matter as said
Prompting AI and writing code
A tool that tidies your prompt before the AI reads it changes what you asked. rawflo hands over exactly what you said.
Writers
Drafting by voice only works if the draft sounds like you. Your rhythm, your repeats, your phrasing, kept.
Notes and records
When it matters what someone actually said, you want the words, not a summary of them.
