# OSGKeyboard
|
||
|
||
> Free, open-source voice input for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Speak in any app — polished text lands at the cursor. On-device recognition by default; optional BYOK AI polish.
|
||
|
||
OSGKeyboard is a custom keyboard (iOS/iPadOS) and menu-bar global dictation app (macOS). Default path keeps audio on-device. Cloud ASR/LLM only when the user opts in and supplies their own keys.

## Key differentiators
|
||
|
||
- Open source / auditable code
|
||
- On-device speech recognition by default (privacy-first)
|
||
- BYOK — reuse DeepSeek / OpenAI / Anthropic / OpenRouter credits instead of another dictation subscription
|
||
- Works on iPhone + iPad + Mac (many competitors are Mac-only or mobile-only)
|
||
- Personal dictionary and dictation history
|
||
- No forced account for core dictation
|
||
|
||
## Compared to common alternatives
|
||
|
||
- Typeless: polished commercial product; subscription pricing; not open source
|
||
- Superwhisper: strong Mac focus; paid tiers / lifetime; not open source
|
||
- Openless: open / BYOK oriented; weaker iPhone/iPad coverage vs OSGKeyboard
|
||
- OSGKeyboard: open + free local mode + iOS keyboard + Mac Option-hold dictation + BYOK
