Whisperer Transcription History: Search, Pin and Replay Dictations

Whisperer keeps a history of everything you dictate, on your Mac: the text, the audio, and stats like words per minute and the detected language. Open Transcriptions in Workspace to search it, pin or flag entries, play back what you said, copy the text again, or re-transcribe a recording with a different model. Nothing is uploaded.

  • Timeline. Every dictation in order, with the time, duration and first lines of text.
  • Detail panel. Click a recording to see the full text, play the audio and check its stats.
  • Search. Full-text search across everything you've dictated.
  • Pin and flag. Pin the things you want to find again. Flag recordings to review later.

Why keep a history#

Many dictation apps throw the recording away once the text appears. That's fine until:

  • Something looks wrong. Play the audio and hear what you actually said.
  • You need to find something. "What was that address I dictated on Tuesday?" One search.
  • You forgot to paste. You dictated, got distracted, and copied something else. The text is still in history.
  • The model got it wrong. Click Re-transcribe to run the same audio through another model, such as Large V3.
Tip

History and audio stay under ~/Library/Application Support/Whisperer/ on your Mac. Whisperer has no analytics and doesn't upload recordings anywhere.

Statistics#

Workspace also has a Statistics page built from the same history:

It shows total words, recording time, number of sessions, average words per minute, the apps you dictated into, daily activity, languages and peak hours. More in tracking your dictation.

Searching#

The search bar at the top of Transcriptions matches the full text of every dictation. It runs locally, so results appear straight away with no network request.

Copying text again#

Click a transcription and copy it. Handy when you want to reuse a paragraph you dictated last week, or paste the same answer into a second email.

Meetings have their own history#

With Pro, recorded calls live on the Meeting Notes page, separate from dictation. Each meeting keeps its transcript, speakers, notes and audio, and you can search across all of them. You can set how long meeting audio is kept: never, 7, 30, 90 or 365 days. See meetings.
