Kiao Voice
Voice input, reimagined for bilingual work

Speak once.
Paste polished text.

Hold a hotkey, speak Mandarin or English, and Kiao Voice cleans it up with your own terminology — then pastes it into whichever app you're in. No tabs, no dialogs, no friction.

How it works

From thought to text in three steps

01

Hold the hotkey

Press your configured shortcut from anywhere on macOS. A subtle overlay confirms the mic is hot — no window switching needed.

02

Speak naturally

Mix Mandarin and English however you think. Kiao captures your audio with on-device privacy defaults and high-accuracy STT.

03

Paste polished text

AI enhancement fixes grammar, applies your custom dictionaries, and pastes the result directly where your cursor was.

Why Kiao Voice

A Taiwan product built for the way you actually work

Most voice-input tools come from somewhere else. Kiao is built here — with the trust model, the language tuning, and the business plumbing that Taiwanese teams care about.

Built in Taiwan

Your data stays in trusted hands

Kiao Voice is a Taiwan-based product. Not a Chinese company, not re-branded from one. Your recordings and transcripts flow through infrastructure you can verify — not across jurisdictions you cannot.

Taiwanese Mandarin

Tuned for how Taiwan actually speaks

Vocabulary, phrasing, and common typos are optimized for Traditional Chinese and Taiwanese usage — 捷運, 拜託, 有沒有, code-switching with English. Less post-editing, more flow.

Local invoicing

Taiwan business invoices, first-class

Need a 統編 invoice for your company books? We can issue one. Most overseas voice-input tools can't — so their paper trail stops at a credit card receipt.

Features

Made for teams that live in two languages

Bilingual by design

Mix Mandarin and English mid-sentence. Kiao keeps the rhythm of how you actually think and write.

Custom dictionaries

Feed your team glossaries, product names, and domain terms. Every transcription respects them automatically.

Hotkey-first flow

Global shortcut from any app. Your cursor never leaves its place — the paste lands exactly where you were typing.

Context-aware cleanup

AI enhancement fixes filler words, casing, and grammar while preserving tone, code blocks, and technical terms.

Private by default

Audio is transcribed through your configured provider and discarded after processing. No unnecessary storage.

Built for speed

Tight feedback loop from recording to paste — no dialogs, no multi-step wizards, no context switching.

Start speaking your best writing.

Free during beta. Works on any Apple Silicon Mac.
