Changelog
What shipped.
Dated and honest, newest first. "Coming" means being built, not being teased.

The site grew a whole marketing wing.
- Mobile navigation: a proper menu, with your account one tap away when signed in.
- New pages: Why Pro, Private by architecture, vs Wispr Flow, the demo, use cases, and this changelog.
- Free tools: a typing speed test with a talking test to match.
- Every speed claim on the site re-sourced to published research, labeled as averages, with the studies named.

fastspoken.com went live. The dictionary went zero-knowledge.
- The site, accounts, and the "your book" dashboard: lifetime words, time saved, streak, and a warm heatmap, mirrored from the app's on-device ledger as counts only.
- End-to-end encrypted dictionary and snippets sync (Pro): sealed on your device with a passphrase only you know. We proved to ourselves we can't read it, then shipped it.
- Cloud polish API (Pro): filler removed, self-corrections resolved, process-then-discard.
- Android: the on-device engine passed its speed gate, decoding chunks in 70 to 500 milliseconds, and on-device dictations now get the same polish pass.

Fastspoken got its name, its look, and its engine.
- The product became Fastspoken. Warm paper, ink, one coral moment: the design language landed across the app.
- New four-step onboarding, calm segmented controls, and the bubble's choreography: ink to coral to amber and back to calm.
- The on-device engine was chosen the hard way: benchmarked on accents, noise, and real spontaneous NZ speech against cloud-grade models. It scored 96.4% on the hard set and got the job.
- Dictation moved fully to the keyboard layer, which is why it works in apps that block accessibility tools, Samsung Notes included.
- Silence handling: a voice-activity gate so quiet rooms produce nothing instead of hallucinated text.

The bubble was born.
- A floating bubble that types what you say into any app: tap, talk, and whole sentences land at your cursor at every natural pause.
- Adaptive mic thresholds, so quiet voices and noisy rooms both work without tuning.
- A rescue net: if a landing is ever blocked, the full take arrives at the end. Words are never silently lost.
- Survives reboots, battery management, and network blips.
4 July 2026Engine
First words.
- The dictation pipeline came alive: speech to text with an AI cleanup pass, a personal dictionary that primes recognition, and snippets that expand as you speak.
- The privacy laws were written before the product had a name: the live beat never requires a network, and servers never store what you say.
Windows is in development. iOS is planned. Both will appear here when they are real, not before.
