SuperWhisper alternative for Windows

SuperWhisper runs on Windows.
Here is what changes with Dit.

Both use OpenAI’s Whisper and both transcribe well. The real difference is not the platform: it is the pricing model and what happens to your audio.

What SuperWhisper does, honestly

Let us get this out of the way first: SuperWhisper is good software, and it is available on Windows, alongside Mac and iOS. If you landed here searching for “SuperWhisper for PC”, the answer is yes, it exists.

Their free tier is not a time-limited trial: it is permanent, with no transcription quota, and covers more than 100 languages. For occasional use, it may well be enough.

So comparing Dit to a free product on price alone would make no sense. The differences that matter are elsewhere.

Two opposite pricing models

As soon as you want the advanced features, SuperWhisper moves you to its Pro plan, billed at $8.49 per month. Dit costs €29, once: less than four months of their subscription, and then it is done.

SuperWhisper is paid for every month, indefinitely. Dit is bought once.

That is the whole difference between renting software and owning it. With Dit, the version you installed keeps working whether you are still paying or not — there is nothing to renew, and nothing that stops if you forget. After one year, three years or ten, the price does not move.

Your audio never leaves your machine

This is the most important difference, and the only one that does not go stale. SuperWhisper’s Pro plan relies on cloud models: what you dictate travels to remote servers to be processed there.

Dit runs Whisper on your own PC. Your audio is never transmitted, never stored anywhere else, never analysed by a third party. For medical notes, client files, legal work, or simply ideas you would rather keep to yourself, the question no longer arises.

To be fully transparent: an internet connection is required on first launch, to download the speech recognition model (around 500 MB). After that, Dit works 100% offline, including with no connection at all.

And if you need more

For everyday dictation, Dit at €29 does the job. If you need to transcribe files or translate, Dit Pro at €89 adds them — once, with no subscription:

  • ✓File transcription for already recorded audio and video, with no length limit and still fully local.
  • ✓Translation to English from 11 languages (and from English to French).

Both of these sit behind a subscription at SuperWhisper. Here you pay once, and they are yours.

Switching from SuperWhisper to Dit

The move takes a few minutes and requires nothing unusual.

  1. Download Dit and run the installer. On first launch, Dit detects your hardware and picks the right model on its own.
  2. Pick your push-to-talk shortcut. If you had grown used to a particular combination, you can keep exactly the same one.
  3. Try it in your usual app. Dit types into the active field whatever the software — browser, word processor, chat client, terminal.
  4. Uninstall SuperWhisper once you are convinced, and remember to cancel the subscription if you had one running.

Your old transcriptions stay in SuperWhisper: Dit does not import them, and does not touch them either.

Works on most Windows PCs. 8 GB RAM and a modern processor is all you need. An NVIDIA GPU is recommended for best performance, but not required.

Frequently asked questions

Is SuperWhisper available on PC?

Yes. SuperWhisper is available on Mac, Windows and iOS. So the question is no longer whether it runs on PC, but what you are after: free software with a subscription option, or software bought once that keeps everything local.

Is SuperWhisper free?

Its free tier is permanent, with no transcription limit, and covers more than 100 languages. The advanced features sit on the Pro plan, billed at $8.49 per month (pricing observed in September 2026).

Does my audio go to the internet with Dit?

No. Dit runs Whisper directly on your PC: your voice is never transmitted, nor stored anywhere but on your own machine. That is the fundamental difference with plans that rely on cloud models.

Do I need an internet connection to use Dit?

Only on first launch, to download the speech recognition model (around 500 MB). Once that is done, Dit works 100% offline, even with no connection at all.
