Speakey is the better pick if you want real-time streaming dictation on Windows or Linux with GPU acceleration, a simple one-time payment, and no account or cloud dependency whatsoever. The hold-CapsLock interface is minimal and fast. Typilot wins when you also need the 27-command AI typing layer, ghost-text autocomplete, on-device meeting transcription with speaker diarization, macOS support, or 99+ language coverage.
