Speak 150+ words per minute vs 40 wpm typing. Finish tasks in a third of the time.
Voice Corrections

Inline AI Commands
Transform text as you speak: 'Ottex start fix grammar Ottex end'. Edit, improve, translate—all by voice.
Accurate Transcription
Cloud AI models transcribe your voice with 99% accuracy. Filler words like 'um' and 'like' are automatically cleaned up.

Define custom text replacements and shortcuts. Say 'work signature' to expand your full email signature, or 'my address' for your contact info.

Optionally let AI see your screen for smarter responses. Reply to emails with full context, answer messages knowing the conversation history.
