Field notes
The page describes a two-model flow: on-device speech recognition produces text, then a writing model tidies it before insertion at the active cursor. It says an initial model download is required, after which dictation works offline, and lists support for 24 languages, including mixed-language sentences. The Mac App Store release is described as coming soon; the page specifies macOS 14 or later and Apple silicon M1 or newer.
