Willow Voice, also called Willow, is an AI dictation app and keyboard replacement made by Willow Care, Inc. It converts spoken words into formatted text inside whatever application the user is working in, so there is no separate transcription window to copy from.
The product runs on Mac, Windows and iPhone, and the pricing page lists Android as coming soon. The company says more than 150,000 professionals use it, and it cites over 600 reviews on the US App Store.
Beyond plain dictation, Willow includes Willow Scribe, which takes a rough description of what the user wants to say and turns it into polished writing in the user's own voice.
Willow follows a three-step flow. The user places the cursor in any text field, such as Slack, Gmail, Cursor, Notion or iMessage. They then press and hold a hotkey and speak naturally, without worrying about punctuation, formatting or filler words.
When the user lets go, formatted text appears at the cursor. The site says no switching, copying or cleanup is needed. The company also states that text can appear in as little as 200ms.
Over time, Willow is said to learn the user's writing style and vocabulary. Its dictionary picks up names, product terms and abbreviations, and saved shortcuts let users insert common phrases with a short command.
The core of the product is smart formatting: it removes filler words, fixes punctuation and shapes the text for the app in use. Style matching adapts tone across email, Slack, documents and technical tools, and the auto-learning dictionary keeps proper nouns accurate.
Willow supports dictation in more than 100 languages and lets users switch between them. A whisper mode is described as handling background noise, whispering and fast speakers, and an offline mode runs entirely on the device.
On security, the company states that Willow is SOC 2 Type II certified and HIPAA compliant, with zero data retention and end-to-end encryption. Team features on higher plans include a shared team dictionary, centralized billing and a team management dashboard.
