Enzo vs Wispr Flow
A Wispr Flow alternative that stays on your Mac.
Enzo is your own AI assistant for Mac. Dictation, meeting recording, speaker labels and meeting notes are free, and capture runs on your Mac. Chat answers from your own work with cloud AI, and Plus adds all your history, Medium and High effort, about 6× the AI usage and sending for $10 a month.
Respect first, then the difference.
Credit where it’s due: Wispr Flow is polished, a lot of people like it, and the AI editing is clever. But it works by sending your dictation to servers for processing. Their own documentation is upfront about that, and it’s why there’s no offline mode. It’s also a subscription, $15 a month or $12 a month billed annually, with a free tier that caps how many words you can dictate each week.
Where Enzo is different
Unlimited free voice typing
Speak into the Mac apps you already use. Free has no word limit or expiry, and keeps your recordings, transcripts and speaker labels.
Help throughout your day
Ask a question, attach a document, use your current screen, or draft a follow-up. Chat answers from your own work and shows its sources.
Meetings you can revisit
Enzo records meeting audio on your Mac without a bot, with separate speaker labels. On every plan it writes notes after your meetings, a brief before them and follow-ups after them.
Recall is your choice
Opt in to let Enzo remember what you worked on. Recall stays encrypted on your Mac, and you can pause it or delete it any time.
Private by design
Transcription and Recall run on your Mac, and your history is stored only there. Chat sends only the context a question needs to Enzo’s cloud AI. Enzo’s service keeps none of it, and the AI provider keeps it only briefly to check for abuse.
Free, or Plus for $10
Free has no time limit. Plus adds all your history, Medium and High effort, about 6× the AI usage and replies sent from Enzo, with a 14-day free trial. Cancel anytime.
Type at the speed of sound.
Dictation that keeps up: press a key, talk, press again, and the text lands at your cursor in any app.

What Wispr Flow does better
It runs on Windows and iPhone too
Enzo is Mac-only, and Apple Silicon at that. If you dictate across platforms, Flow covers more of them.
Its AI rewriting goes further
Flow can reshape tone and formatting as you speak. Enzo turns what you said into clean, punctuated text and leaves the wording yours.
Both free tiers stay available
Flow’s free plan has a weekly word cap. Enzo’s Free plan has no word limit and no time limit, and includes meetings with speaker labels.
If you need dictation on a Windows machine or your phone, Flow is the better fit. If your work lives on a Mac and you'd rather your voice stay there too, keep reading.
Questions, answered.
What is free in Enzo?
Free has no time limit: unlimited dictation in any app, even offline; unlimited meeting recording with no bot, and who said what by name; notes, briefs and follow-ups; answers at Low effort about your meetings, apps and work from today and your last working day; every connected app; replies drafted for you to copy; and AI usage that renews every 5 hours, within a weekly limit. Your history stays on your Mac.
What does Plus add?
Answers from all your history, Medium and High effort, about 6× Free’s AI usage, and replies and messages sent from Enzo. Plus is $10 a month or $100 a year, with a 14-day free trial.
How does the Plus trial work?
Start it from Enzo, in Settings, Plan. Checkout asks for a card and charges nothing today. Plus is yours for 14 days, then your card is charged unless you cancel before the trial ends.
What stays on my Mac, and what uses the internet?
Recordings, transcripts, chats and Recall stay on your Mac, and transcription runs there, so dictation and recording work offline. Enzo uses the internet to sign you in, download models and updates, search the web, send anonymous usage statistics you can turn off, and run its AI features, which send text, never audio, through Enzo’s service to an AI provider. Enzo’s service keeps none of it, and the provider keeps it only briefly to check for abuse.
How is recording history different from Recall?
Saved recordings stay in Speak on every plan. Recall is a separate, optional timeline of the apps and text you worked with, encrypted on your Mac and deleted after 30 days unless you choose another period. On Free, Chat’s answers reach today and your last working day; Plus and Pro reach all your history.
