What is Parlo?

Parlo is a macOS application that provides a comprehensive voice control and dictation solution. It runs entirely on-device, ensuring privacy and offline functionality. The app integrates three core capabilities: writing via voice dictation, listening to meetings to generate notes, and acting on voice commands to control the Mac.

How to use Parlo?

  • To use Parlo, download and install the app on a Mac with macOS 15 or later on Apple Silicon. After a one-time model download, you can start dictating by holding the fn key, speaking, and releasing. For meetings, Parlo automatically detects calls and offers to record locally, then generates transcripts and notes. For voice commands, hold fn + ctrl and speak to execute actions like opening apps or setting reminders, with confirmation prompts for destructive actions.
