We build Blip AI. Sources for Wispr Flow, checked October 30, 2026: pricing (prices, free plan, priority support on Pro), Data Controls (cloud-only transcription, “low latency”), system requirements (no Linux), free plan limits, Command Mode, Styles, Transforms, coding features, support and its home page (personal dictionary). Blip's speed is our own figure. “In our tests” means we timed Blip and Wispr Flow the same way: from when you stop speaking (release the key) until the text appears.
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.
Wispr Flow's Styles set capitalization and punctuation for each kind of app, and its Transforms (beta) take your own prompts. Blip adds your name to the emails it drafts for you in Action Mode.
Why Switch from Wispr Flow to Blip AI
Action Mode: Replies Drafted for You
ACTION MODEGo beyond dictation. Action Mode lets you draft instant email replies, Slack messages, and properly formatted text, all with your voice. Just start with “Hey Blip”, speak your intent, and Blip crafts the response. Wispr Flow's Command Mode can draft a reply too, on Mac and Windows: you turn it on in its settings and hold a separate shortcut.
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. Wispr Flow has no Linux app.
Ultra-Low Latency
On Blip Cloud, text appears about 700 ms after you stop speaking: faster than Wispr Flow in our tests. Feel the difference in real-time dictation speed.
Technical Terms, Spelled Right
Blip gets technical terms like Vercel, Supabase and Claude right out of the box. Add your own names, products and jargon to its dictionary for the rest.
