Wispr Flow vs Superwhisper: which one to pick for dictating on your computer

In short

Wispr Flow and Superwhisper both dictate in any app on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android, in more than 100 languages. Pick Wispr Flow if you want a free plan that already cleans up your text (2,000 words a week on desktop) or meeting notes on Windows too; Pro is USD 15 a month or USD 144 a year. Pick Superwhisper if you want to dictate offline, choose your own models or pay less: Pro is USD 8.49 a month, USD 84.99 a year or USD 249.99 once, and its free plan has no word limit. If you also work in Spanish, there's a short note on Loro at the end.

What they have in common

Both are voice dictation apps: put your cursor where you want to write, hold a shortcut, talk and let go, and the text shows up in whatever app you have open. Both run on Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android, dictate in more than 100 languages, and have a dictionary for your names and work terms.

Both record meetings without adding a bot to the call. And both offer company plans with single sign-on (SSO) and SOC 2 Type II security certification.
