Frequently asked questions

Is there a student discount for WhispMe?
WhispMe Free includes 5 minutes of dictation per month — enough to test it. For regular use, Plus is $4.90/month (5 hours) — among the most affordable dedicated dictation apps for students.
Can WhispMe transcribe lectures live?
WhispMe is designed for note-taking after a lecture — you speak summaries and key points into your notes app. For capturing full lecture audio, use a separate tool, then dictate your summary into your notes.
Does WhispMe help with essay writing?
Yes. Dictate first drafts at the speed of thought. Most students draft a 1,000-word essay in 5–10 minutes by speaking, then edit the result — usually faster than typing from scratch.
Is WhispMe free?
Yes — WhispMe is free to download. The Free plan includes 5 minutes of dictation per month. Paid plans start at $4.90/month for Plus (5 hours/month) and $9.90/month for Pro (13 hours/month). No credit card required to start.
Does WhispMe work offline?
Transcription runs in the cloud for the highest accuracy. An internet connection is required while dictating. Audio is processed and discarded — never stored on our servers.
How many languages does WhispMe support?
99 languages, powered by OpenAI's Whisper model. WhispMe auto-detects the language as you speak — switch from English to Spanish to French without changing any settings.
