Voxden for Windows
One installer. Free to use on your own PC, with Pro an upgrade from inside the app. Voxden keeps itself up to date after this.
The installer lets you pick the folder and makes a desktop shortcut. Nothing is asked of you until the app opens.
First run
Windows will warn you. Here is why, and what to click.
Why this happens. Voxden isn't code-signed yet. SmartScreen is reporting that it has not seen this installer before, not that it found anything in it: with no certificate there is no publisher name to recognise, so every new version starts from zero reputation. A certificate costs more than the app earns today, so signing comes at around 100 to 200 paying users. Until then the file here is the same one attached to the GitHub release, and these prompts appear once per version.

Sign in
Voxden asks for an account before anything else: Google, or a code sent to your email if you would rather not use Google. The email address is the account; Google also brings your name and picture.

Pick where your voice goes
Download a speech model to run on your own machine — Qwen3-ASR or Whisper, on the GPU if you have one and the CPU if you don't — or switch Voxden Cloud on if you are on Pro and skip the download entirely.

Press the keys and talk
The flow bar appears wherever your cursor is. Press once to start and once more to stop, or hold both keys while you speak. The text lands in whatever you were typing in.
Ctrl+ to dictate
Checksums and source: every release on the GitHub release page carries the installer, its blockmap and latest.yml, the update manifest holding the installer's SHA-512 — the same file Voxden reads when it updates itself. The code is in the repository.
