| Decision | Wispr Flow | Willow Voice |
|---|---|---|
| Public price | Free; Pro $15 monthly or $12/user/month billed annually | Free; Pro $15 monthly or $12/user/month annually |
| Platforms | macOS, Windows, iPhone/iOS, Android | macOS, Windows, iPhone/iOS; Android listed as coming soon |
| Processing | Cloud transcription is required. It is not an offline transcription app. | Willow says offline use is available, while its security disclosures also describe AI subprocessors. The exact local/cloud path depends on configuration and was not fully clear from the public pages. |
| Works where | Wispr says Flow works in every application on supported phones and computers. | Willow says it works anywhere you type. |
| Vocabulary | Personal dictionary plus automatic learning of unique words. | Dictionary terms; paid team plans add shared dictionary capabilities. |
| AI formatting | Turns speech into cleaned-up writing and adapts to personal style. | Frontier models clean dictation; Scribe turns spoken intent into drafted writing and Pro adds style memory. |
| Teams | Pro includes team administration; Enterprise adds advanced controls, SSO/SAML, and bulk pricing. | Business adds centralized administration and enforced privacy/compliance settings; Enterprise adds SSO/SAML, API, dashboards, and dedicated support. |
| Privacy path | Wispr says it does not train on dictation data. Its zero-retention setup requires Privacy Mode with Private Cloud Sync disabled; do not assume that posture from the default settings. | Willow says audio is not stored after transcription, transcripts are not retained by default, and data is not used to improve models without consent. Distinguish those claims from plan-gated enforced zero-retention and HIPAA controls. |
| Main watch-out | Transcription always happens in the cloud. | Android is not currently listed as available. |

People who want one mainstream dictation service across computers and phones.
The easiest default to shortlist when you move between Mac, Windows, iPhone, and Android—but transcription is cloud-based and the free word caps vary by platform.
Professionals and teams that need modern dictation plus administrative and compliance options.
A strong fit for professionals and organizations that value centralized controls, but Android is still listed as coming soon and enforced privacy/compliance features sit on higher plans.
Trial rule
Use the same microphone, apps, prompts, and correction count.
Vendor feature pages cannot establish which app will produce more usable text in your environment. Run the browser-local benchmark with both trials before paying.
