Dictate into AI tools when you're working. Capture every thought when you're not. Pocket-sized, always with you.
One press turns talking into clean text, in the tools you already use.
Who is this for?
Zeph Click isn't tied to a profession or a single app. If a chunk of your day is moving words from your head to a screen, this is for you.
Talk to Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, the terminal. No more dancing between dictation hotkeys and editor shortcuts. The button has its own.
For Cursor · Claude Code · Wispr Flow
Speak the first messy version in Scrivener, Docs, Obsidian. The page fills faster than you can type, and the keyboard is right there for the second pass.
For Scrivener · Google Docs · Obsidian
If holding a keyboard combo isn't comfortable, or you're already on Talon, Dragon, or system voice control, this is a tactile trigger that's easier on hands and patience.
For Talon · Dragon · system voice control
Dictate the chart while it's fresh, into your EHR or a clean Markdown note. The mic is two inches from your mouth, so the transcription doesn't guess. Pair with a local model and nothing leaves the machine.
For EHR fields · voice tools · structured notes
Case notes, deposition summaries, drafts. Same comfort as the old handheld recorder, but the text shows up in the document instead of a transcription queue. Local transcription option keeps client work off the cloud.
For case management · Word · voice tools
Interviews, research, the thought between calls. One press, one minute, and it's a searchable note. Not a memory you'll lose by Friday. Run a local model and the audio never leaves your laptop.
For Obsidian · Notion · AI memory tools

Six prototypes in, I just made the thing I actually wanted to buy. One button. I talk to Claude Code, to Wispr Flow, to my notes. Voice goes straight in, no typing.
Your keyboard wasn't built for AI. Every tool fights for the same hotkeys, and the moment you fumble the combo, the thought is gone.
Cluttered
Every tool fights for the same hotkey. Wispr Flow, Raycast, Cursor, your dictation app, they all want the same combo. You can only give one of them what they want. Same story on macOS, Windows, Linux.
Fumbled
Combos eat the first word. hit the combo, wait, watch the tool spin up half a second too late, and your opening sentence vanishes into the void.
Off-target
The mic is across the room. laptop mics catch the AC, the keyboard, the dog. Clean transcription needs the mic two inches from your mouth.
A real button off the keyboard. A real mic two inches from your mouth. Three actions you configure once, then forget. Wired or wireless, your voice goes where you point it.
In the wild
Press Zeph Click, say what you want, release. The diff opens.
Cursor sees the dictation as plain keyboard input. The button has its own dedicated route, so it doesn't fight with the editor's shortcuts. Your hands stay on the home row.
The mic is two inches from your mouth. The espresso machine isn't.
Open office, standing desk, coworkers on calls a few feet back. Laptop and phone mics catch the room. Zeph Click's mic is at your face, so the transcription comes out clean even when the floor is loud.
Updates as launch gets closer. No noise, unsubscribe anytime.
Press. Talk for a minute. Get cleaned text in Obsidian.
Coffee shop, bar, kitchen counter, wherever the idea hits. The keyboard is slow, the brain isn't. Zeph Click drops the messy first draft into your vault as clean Markdown. Trim it later. Or just leave it.
Four-minute window. Press, dictate, the note lands in the EMR.
Mic two inches from your mouth means medical terms come through clean. Pair with a local model and the audio never leaves the laptop. Patient walks in, you've already moved on.
Press Zeph Click in your pocket. Talk. Keep walking.
Idea hits between meetings, or on the way home. Onboard storage (stretch goal) holds the audio until you reconnect to the laptop. Phone stays in your pocket. The thought doesn't slip.
Two upgrades the campaign unlocks
Day-one Zeph Click already does the work: wired USB-C and wireless Bluetooth, mic, three main buttons plus a side button, companion app. These two stretch goals make it faster, more private, and free from your laptop, for every backer.
Onboard storage turns Zeph Click into a pocket voice recorder, think subscription-free PLAUD AI.*
A second tiny piece for the laptop. The button and mic stay in your hand, the dongle talks to the computer.
* Audio is transcribed locally, on your own computer, no cloud, no account, no subscription. What you do with the text afterward is up to you.
Wherever you point it. Zeph Click shows up as a regular keyboard and a regular microphone, and what listens on the other side is your choice. Pair it with a local tool and nothing leaves your computer. Pair it with a cloud tool and it goes where that tool sends it. Zeph Click itself has no account, no cloud, no telemetry.
No. You buy the device, the companion app is free, and there's nothing to renew. If a voice tool you use has its own subscription, that's between you and them.
Yes, if you pair it with a local voice tool. Press, speak, release; the local model on your machine transcribes; the text appears. The device itself doesn't need the internet at all.
Almost certainly. Any app that takes a keyboard shortcut works out of the box, and presets cover Wispr Flow, Superwhisper, Claude Code, Cursor, Obsidian, Talon, macOS Dictation, Windows Voice Typing. Bind anything else yourself.
None of them ship with a microphone in the right place, and most don't have a real notion of push-to-talk. Zeph Click does both: three configurable buttons and a mic two inches from your mouth.
