Where they differ

Specialist vs bundle

Wispr Flow is built around dictation — every platform, 100+ languages, dictionaries, snippets and voice commands [1][4]. Promptly's dictation is narrower but comes with everything else Promptly does for the same subscription.

What's kept

Wispr Flow stores dictation history and audio in its cloud unless you turn that off, and uses data to improve its model by default on Free and Pro, with toggles for both [3][6]. Promptly never stores dictation audio.

Where Wispr Flow is ahead

Platforms, languages, a free plan and power features like Command Mode [1][2][5]. If you only want dictation, start there.
