Product Overview
What is Vowen?
Vowen is a voice-first desktop application for macOS and Windows that turns speech into polished text, searchable meeting notes, and computer actions. It supports local transcription models for offline use and optional cloud models when speed or specific accuracy needs matter. Users can dictate into any application, tailor output styles by app, issue context-aware commands, and create voice-triggered workflows without moving between tools.
Key Features

Flexible Speech Models
Lets users choose local or cloud transcription models based on privacy, language coverage, speed, and accuracy requirements.
Context-Aware Command Mode
Uses selected text, the active window, or a screen region to rewrite text, summarize content, translate replies, or explain on-screen information.
Meeting Notes Workspace
