It knows where you’re typing.
Flula sorts your apps into four kinds and writes for each: chats like texts, email polished, the rest clean. Pick each kind’s tone, add your own apps, and give any app its own language. Every plan gets it.
Click a kind, then pick a tone.
How Flula writes.
Only full stops and capitals change. Your words stay as you said them, in any language.

Fillers go and spoken corrections apply in every app. Your languages are in Settings.
Three steps, then talk.
- 01Download and open FlulaDrag it to Applications and open it. It also lives in your menu bar, one click away in any app.
- 02Allow Microphone and AccessibilityMicrophone, so Flula can hear you. Accessibility, so it can put text where your cursor is and read the text beside it.
- 03Sign in and pick your languagesMake a free account in the app, or sign in. Pick the languages you speak. Done.
What happens to your audio.
Flula processes each recording online and lets it go. Audio, transcripts and the text around your cursor, if you choose to send it, are never saved to your account, and each recording is deleted from your Mac once it’s processed or cancelled. Your account keeps your preferences and how many minutes you’ve used.

Mac questions, answered.
Why does Flula need Accessibility access?
So Flula can remember the field you were typing in, see the text beside your cursor so your words join it, paste your text into it, and respond to its shortcut in every app. Nothing else is sent to other apps, and Flula never presses Return for you. Each dictation also sends the app’s name and the nearby text, so capitals, names and tone fit, unless you turn off Use the text around the cursor in Settings › Privacy. Flula never reads password fields, and doesn’t keep what it sends.
Does Flula work offline?
No. It needs the internet: your speech is processed online to make clean text. Audio and transcripts still aren’t saved to your account.
Which languages does it understand?
101, mixed in one sentence if you like. Pick yours once, and each word stays in the language you said it.
Is there an iPhone app?
Yes. Flula for iPhone is ready and on the App Store soon: a voice keyboard for any app, on the same account.
How do I upgrade to Pro?
Sign in to your account on the web and choose Pro, or get there from the Mac app’s Account page. 600 minutes a month for €11.99. Cancel anytime.
