Hi Sarah,

I wanted to let you know that the launch is going well. We’re on track for Friday, and I’ll send the final notes tomorrow.

Thanks!

From thought to finished text.

Build a different voice workflow for every hotkey. Stages always run in a simple, predictable order.

01

Transcribe

Fast, accurate speech-to-text powered by Whisper. The only required stage.

“um, so the release...”
02

Enhance

Remove filler words and false starts. Add punctuation while keeping your voice.

“The release is Friday.”
03

Compose

Speak a brief, get finished writing. Or select text and say how it should change.

“Write a concise update...”
04

Translate

Think in your native language and type polished text in the language you choose.
