Today, we're launching Typeless for Linux. Typeless is now available on Mac, Windows, iOS, Android — and Linux. The Linux app brings the full Typeless desktop experience, with all the core features available on Mac. But this launch is about more than adding another platform. For us, every new platform is another step toward a bigger goal: making voice the default way for people to interact with computers — wherever they think, create, and work. For decades, the keyboard has been the default interface between our thoughts and computers. And we've gotten so used to it that we rarely question the friction. Thoughts come fast, messy, and nonlinear. Before you communicate them, you normally have to turn them into sentences in your head first. Then you slow everything down again to type. We built Typeless to remove both layers of friction. With Typeless, you can just think out loud. Follow your thoughts wherever they go. Change your mind halfway through. Add context later. Repeat yourself. Speak imperfectly. Typeless turns that messy stream of thought into clear, polished writing in real time. It removes filler words and repetition, structures your ideas, adapts to your writing style, understands your personal vocabulary, and gives you writing that fits the app you're working in. You can: • Dictate — turn messy thoughts into clear writing, 4x faster than typing • Translate — speak in your language and write naturally in another • Ask anything — use your voice to write from scratch, or select text to edit it, ask questions, and take actions • Build your dictionary — names, acronyms, and specialized terms get recognized correctly • Personalize your style — Typeless learns how you write and adapts to where you're writing • Speak 100+ languages — including naturally mixing languages while you talk And it's private by design. Linux users tend to be some of the people who spend the most time interacting deeply with computers. Developers. Engineers. Researchers. Builders. They should be able to use voice as naturally on Linux as anywhere else. Our long-term belief is simple: Voice will become the default way people interact with computers. Not because speaking is merely faster than typing. But because voice gives us a way to communicate with computers much closer to the speed and form in which thoughts actually happen. To us, that's what real freedom in computing looks like: expressing what you mean without adapting how you think. And for that future to happen, it can't belong to one device, one operating system, or one workflow. It has to be available wherever you work. Linux. Mac. Windows. iOS. Android. One interface, wherever you work. Typeless for Linux is here.
