Sources for Superwhisper, checked October 30, 2026: superwhisper.com (plans, prices, modes and platforms), Superwhisper for Windows, and its Linux builds on GitHub: the README calls them prerelease software for Omarchy, and the release notes add KDE Plasma and GNOME. Other apps in the Quick answer, checked the same day: Wispr Flow, Aqua Voice and Willow Voice. “In our tests” means we timed Blip and Superwhisper the same way: from when you stop speaking (release the key) until the text appears.

PERSONALIZED BLIP

Blip writes the way you do

Tell Blip your name and how you like to write, once. Every message it drafts for you follows your rules.

Your name

When you say “Hey Blip” to draft an email, Blip signs it off with your name. Leave it blank and Blip uses the name on your account.

Your rules (custom prompt)

Write your style in plain words, up to 300 characters. Blip follows it whenever it writes for you.

“I’m a product manager. Keep emails short and use British spelling.”

Your rules are skipped in code editors and terminals, so code comes out exactly as you said it.

To set it up: open Blip and click Personalized Blip in the sidebar.

Superwhisper lets you build custom modes with your own AI instructions. Blip keeps it to one plain-language box and a name field, and uses both when it drafts emails in Action Mode.

Why Switch from Superwhisper to Blip AI

🚀

Action Mode: Replies Drafted for You

ACTION MODE

Go beyond dictation. Start with “Hey Blip” and describe the reply you want, like “Hey Blip, tell Sam Thursday works and ask for the agenda.” Blip drafts the email or Slack message instead of typing your words one by one. Superwhisper's Email and Message modes format what you say.

⚡

Faster than Superwhisper in Our Tests

On Blip Cloud, Blip AI types your text about 700 ms after you stop speaking. That's faster than Superwhisper in our tests, which timed both apps the same way.

🖥️

Windows, Mac and Linux

Blip AI runs on Windows 10 and 11, macOS 11 and later, and Linux (an AppImage for Ubuntu/Debian, Fedora and Arch, on Wayland and X11), plus iPhone and Android. Superwhisper's Linux builds are GitHub downloads: its README calls them prerelease software for Omarchy, and its release notes add KDE Plasma and GNOME. See Superwhisper for Linux.

👨‍💻

Built for Developers Too

Blip gets technical terms like Vercel, Supabase and Claude right, and you add the rest to its dictionary. It types into Cursor, VS Code and terminals, including SSH sessions, and skips your writing rules there so code comes out as you said it.
