Is it safe to install?
SpeedOfTalk is signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple, which means Apple has scanned it for malicious software. macOS checks this when you first open it. That's the question it asks about an app downloaded from the internet: it asks for every app that doesn't come from the App Store.
