# Typeless vs Wispr Flow
These two are close. Both are cloud dictation apps that clean up what you say, both offer more than 100 languages, and both cost $12 a month on a yearly plan. The differences are the monthly price, how they handle data and a few platforms. We make Saypad, a competing local app, and we didn't test either one for this page. It's based on what the two companies publish.

## Where they differ

**Commitment.** If you want to try a paid month without a yearly plan, Wispr costs half as much.

**Data.** Typeless says no recordings or screen context stay on its servers, and that your dictation history stays on your device unless you turn on cloud sync. Wispr gives you switches for model training, cloud storage and context awareness, and it locks training off on Growth and Enterprise plans. Both read some text from the app you're in to improve results, so read [what Wispr sends](is-wispr-flow-safe) and Typeless's privacy policy before dictating anything sensitive.

**Meetings and Linux.** Wispr includes meeting notes. Typeless lists a Linux app, which Wispr doesn't.

## If you'd rather not use the cloud

Both send your voice to a server, so neither helps if that's the problem. Saypad, which we make, runs Whisper on your Mac, with no account and no word limit. It types what you said without AI cleanup, and it's Mac only. [Ten Mac dictation apps compared](best-dictation-apps-mac) covers the local and cloud options side by side.

## Questions

**Which is cheaper, Typeless or Wispr Flow?**
On a yearly plan they cost the same at $12 a month. Month to month, Wispr Flow Pro is $15 and Typeless Pro is $30.

**Do Typeless and Wispr Flow work offline?**
No. Wispr says transcription always happens in the cloud, and Typeless says audio is processed on its cloud servers.

**Does Typeless store my voice?**
Typeless says it has a zero data retention policy: audio and context are processed in real time and discarded once the result reaches your device. Its privacy policy also says audio and text may go to third-party AI providers, including Microsoft and Google.

**How many free words do I get?**
Both pricing pages just say limited. Text elsewhere on Typeless's site mentions 2,000 words a week, but check the app, as limits change.
