Where Sayd is different
Clean writing on the free plan
Superwhisper's free plan types what you say. Its AI modes, like Super and Mail, need Pro. Sayd's free plan already takes out the ums, fixes punctuation and handles corrections like "three, no wait, four".
Built for writing, not settings
Superwhisper gives you many models and modes to tune. Sayd keeps it to one talk key and a writing style for each app, so Gmail gets an email and Slack gets a message without you switching anything.
Cheaper to go Pro
Sayd Pro is $54 a year against $84.99. If you'd rather pay once, Sayd's founding membership is $79 against Superwhisper's $249.99 lifetime licence.

Yes. Dictation on your Mac works with no internet. You only need a connection to sign in and to use Fast, the cloud mode.
Not today. Sayd is built for talking into the app you're using. If you need file transcription or meeting recordings, Superwhisper Pro has them.
