A real person behind it
QuickSay is built by Adrian Beeksma, a solo developer in Alberta. Email say@quicksay.app and he is the one who answers.
Windows 10 and 11 only. There is no Mac, Linux or mobile version, and saying so up front seems better than letting you find out after paying.

"I got tired of paying $15/month to rent voice-to-text. So I built my own, and used it to build itself. 95% of my typing goes through QuickSay now. If something breaks, I'm the first to feel it. One person, one price, no subscriptions."
Questions? Answered.
QuickSay needs an internet connection, because your audio is transcribed in the cloud in real time. It's fast (under 2 seconds typically), but it won't work offline.
Your audio goes from your machine to your own Groq account and nowhere else, then it is discarded. There is no QuickSay server in the path that could see it. QuickSay stores zero voice data, zero tracking data, and zero screen captures.
There is a 30-day money-back guarantee. Buy it, use it properly, and if it is not for you, ask for a full refund. No questions asked.
No. QuickSay is Windows only, and that is a real limitation rather than a design statement. It was built on Windows by one developer who uses Windows. Mac and Linux versions are under consideration based on demand.
QuickSay connects to your own free Groq account, not a QuickSay account, so you see exactly what you're using and what it costs. Groq's free tier typically covers it. If you outgrow it, Groq's paid usage runs about $0.04 per hour of audio, which stays under a dollar a month even for heavy use. Your QuickSay purchase is separate and permanent either way.
Learn more about how it works →Yes, all of them, forever. Bug fixes, performance improvements, new features, and language additions are included, and so are future major versions. Buy QuickSay today and version 3 costs you nothing extra. You will never be asked to pay again for an update.
$49 as a one-time purchase for the first 500 customers, then $69 for the next 500, then $89 after 1,000 copies. There is no subscription and no feature tiers. Whichever price you pay, you pay it once and every future update is included.
See the full pricing →Setup takes about 3 minutes. Download QuickSay, create a free account at Groq (the AI service that handles transcription), paste your key into the app, and start talking. The onboarding wizard walks you through every step in plain English.
Read the setup guide →Windows built-in voice typing gives you raw speech-to-text, so every filler word, grammar mistake, and formatting issue is yours to fix. QuickSay adds AI cleanup that removes filler words, fixes grammar, formats text, and adapts to context. It's the difference between a rough transcript and polished writing.
QuickSay works with any microphone: built-in laptop mics, USB headsets, Bluetooth earbuds, or professional condensers. It types into any text field on Windows: VS Code, Google Docs, Slack, Microsoft Word, email clients, browsers, and more. If you can type there, you can dictate there.
