Willow Voice
AI voice dictation that turns speech into clean, formatted text in any app
Willow is a dictation app for Mac, Windows and iPhone: you hold a hotkey in any text field, speak, and it types formatted text at your cursor, with filler words removed and punctuation fixed. It learns names and product terms in a personal dictionary, matches the tone of the app you're writing in (email, Slack, docs), and its Scribe feature turns rough spoken notes into finished writing. It works in more than 100 languages and has an offline mode that runs on the device.

The privacy policy lists access, correction and deletion rights and a zero-retention privacy mode, but names no hosting region and doesn't mention the DPDP Act.
