Only one makes it the mission.

Super Whisper ticks the offline box — and stops there. Amnis is built privacy-first from the ground up: no account required, no telemetry, no analytics. Privacy is not a mode you enable. It is the only way Amnis works.

Audio physically never leaves your Mac

No account or login required

No telemetry or usage analytics

On-device model — no third-party API calls

Super Whisper

Offline is a feature. Privacy is a checkbox.

Amnis

Privacy is the mission. Offline is the only way.

Built for your profession.

Super Whisper has no content for professionals. Amnis is designed for the work that demands privacy.

Legal

Dictate briefs, contracts, and privileged client notes. Everything stays on your Mac — never routed to an external server.

Healthcare

Clinical notes, patient summaries, referral letters — dictated privately, on-device, without a compliance workaround.

Journalism

Transcribe interviews and source notes without exposing sensitive material to any cloud infrastructure.

International teams

Full French and Japanese UI for global teams. Super Whisper has no non-English interface.

Common questions

Both apps transcribe offline on your Mac. The difference is depth and focus. Super Whisper is a general-purpose transcription tool with no professional use case support and no non-English UI. Amnis is built around professional workflows — legal, medical, journalism — with full French and Japanese interface support and privacy as its core brand identity, not a feature.

Super Whisper transcribes offline, which satisfies the basic requirement. However, it has no content, guidance, or features designed specifically for legal work. Amnis is purpose-built for professionals in regulated industries, with documentation and workflow support for legal use cases.

Super Whisper has no French user interface. Amnis ships with a full French UI, making it suitable for French-speaking professionals and teams. Japanese is also fully supported.

Super Whisper transcribes on-device, which is good. But privacy is a feature checkbox for them — not a brand commitment. Amnis requires no account, collects no telemetry, and makes privacy the reason it exists. There is a meaningful difference between 'we support offline' and 'we are an offline-first privacy tool.'

Both offer lifetime purchase options, so neither locks you into a subscription. Amnis pricing starts with a free trial, no account required. Super Whisper is $8.49/month on its Pro plan with a lifetime option available.

Yes. Amnis works completely without an internet connection. You can dictate in airplane mode, in areas with poor connectivity, or in environments where network access is restricted. This is a core feature, not an optional mode.

"I work in finance. My clients' conversations can't touch someone else's server. That's all there is to it."

T. Nakamura · Portfolio Manager

"Super Whisper is good. But I couldn't get past the cloud piece for anything client-facing. Amnis solved that."

A. Bergström · Legal Counsel
