One payment. Every future update included. 30-day money-back guarantee.

One setup step, about a minute

QuickSay runs on your own free Groq account, so your words go straight from your machine to Groq with nothing in between. Here is the whole setup.

STEP 1

Create a free account

Sign up at groq.com with an email address. It is free and it does not ask for a credit card.

STEP 2

Copy your key

Groq gives you a connection key, which is one line of text. Click copy. That is the technical part, and it is over.

STEP 3

Paste it into QuickSay

The setup wizard has one box. Paste, and you are done. Your key is encrypted on your PC with Windows' own protection and never leaves it except to reach Groq.

Why it works this way: because the account is yours, nobody sits between you and your words, and there is no middleman who can raise your price later. Groq's free tier typically covers it. If you outgrow it, Groq charges about $0.04 per hour of audio, which stays under a dollar a month even for heavy use. You pay Groq directly, at their price, with nothing added.

With QuickSay the key is yours for both steps, the speech recognition and the cleanup, and there is no subscription to unlock it.

$49, one-time

Frequently Asked Questions

Why one-time and not a subscription?
Voice-to-text is a tool, and a tool is something you should be able to buy. QuickSay works as a one-time purchase because there is almost nothing to pay for month to month: the app talks straight to Groq using your own key, so the only thing we run is a small licence check. You pay once, you own it.
What if I need to reinstall?
Your license is tied to your email address. Reinstall on the same machine, move to a new PC, or set up a fresh Windows install, then use the download link from your original purchase email. QuickSay checks your licence with our server when it starts and once in a while after that, so it needs an internet connection to confirm you are licensed. If you take a refund, the licence stops working.
Is there a student discount?
A student discount is under consideration. If you are a student, get in touch from your .edu address and something can be worked out.
Do I get future updates?
Yes, all of them, forever. Bug fixes, performance improvements, new features, and language additions are included, and that includes future major versions. Buy QuickSay today and version 3 costs you nothing extra. You will never be asked to pay again for an update.
What if Groq's free tier goes away?
QuickSay connects to your own free Groq account, not a QuickSay account, so you see exactly what you are using and what it costs, with no markup. Groq's free tier typically covers it. If you outgrow it, Groq's paid usage runs about $0.04 per hour of audio, which stays under a dollar a month even for heavy use. Your QuickSay licence is separate and permanent either way.

What if I don't like it?
There is a 30-day money-back guarantee. Buy it, use it properly, and if it is not for you, ask for a full refund. No questions asked. Read Terms of Service →
