Viora is a voice AI assistant for macOS that lets you hold a shortcut, speak naturally, and turn your voice into text, edits, answers, and small agent tasks—all without leaving your current app.
What is Viora?
Viora is a voice AI assistant for macOS. Hold a shortcut and speak. Viora turns your voice into clean text, useful edits, quick answers, and small tasks. It takes speech as input and produces polished text, rewritten selections, contextual answers, or completed actions as output. Viora runs entirely on macOS and is developed by the team at Viora.
Key Features
- Dictation into any app — Speak into any text field; Viora transcribes with filler-word removal, punctuation, and casing cleanup automatically.
- Edit selected text by voice — Select text, say how to change it (tone, length, stance), and Viora rewrites it in place.
- Ask about context — Highlight a passage or screen area, ask a question, and get an answer in a popover without switching apps.
- Agent tasks — Hand off multi-step tasks like "research competitors' pricing"; Viora executes steps and reports progress.
- Memory & context — Viora remembers your preferences, past instructions, and ongoing threads; it surfaces a daily brief and reminders.
- Personal dictionary — Add names, product terms, or technical jargon so dictation and search handle them correctly.
- Privacy controls — Data is securely stored in the cloud, never used for model training, and every memory can be viewed, edited, or deleted in one tap.
- 100+ language support — Speech recognition works in over 100 languages; core dictation and AI cleanup are free and unlimited.
Who is it for?
Viora is built for macOS users who type all day: developers writing pull request notes, product managers drafting specs and updates, support teams composing replies, founders jotting meeting notes, and office writers handling daily emails and documents.
What can you do with Viora?
- Write in any app — Open an email, note, doc, chat reply, form, or code comment, hold the shortcut, and speak. Viora writes clean text directly into the field.
- Edit existing text — Select any sentence or paragraph, tell Viora how to rewrite it (e.g., "make this more formal"), and she replaces it in place.
- Ask questions — Highlight a passage in a web page, doc, or message, ask "What is the deadline?" and get an answer in a floating capsule.
- Run tasks — Say "Add a meeting to Google Calendar tomorrow at 3 PM" and Viora handles it via connected workflows (Gmail, Google Calendar, Notion, Slack).
- Get a daily brief — When you wake your Mac, Viora shows to-dos, schedule, and follow-ups based on what you said earlier.
How does Viora work?
- Press the keyboard shortcut (or hold to speak).
- Say what you want — a sentence to write, an edit command, a question, or a task instruction.
- Viora automatically routes your request to the right mode: Write, Edit, Ask, or Do.
- The result appears in your current app (text, rewrite, answer) or as a step-by-step agent process you can review.
Viora also runs overnight to process and remember what you said, updating your preferences and arming the next day's brief.
