Voice typing that fits the app you are using

FAQ

What is AI text polishing?

AI text polishing cleans up dictated speech by fixing grammar, removing filler words, and improving structure. When optional app-aware formatting is enabled, it can also shape the final text for email, chat, documents, or technical work.

Choose Your Voice Workflow

Start with dictation, use Ask Anything for one-off answers, then tune providers and shortcuts as your workflow grows.

What is Ask Anything?

Record one spoken question, turn it into text, and get a focused answer without opening a chat thread.

Voice prompts for ChatGPT

Dictate longer prompts, clean them up, and decide when to insert text or ask the model directly.

Voice input for Cursor

Speak coding prompts, bug context, PR notes, and quick developer questions across desktop apps.

Cloud words and BYOK

Understand when hosted STT and LLM calls use quota, and when your own provider keys take over.

Free, Pro, and Lifetime

Compare the free desktop app, BYOK/local provider usage, optional cloud words, Pro, and lifetime access.
