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

Better Context, Better Results

Speaking naturally gives AI agents more context than typing. Describe your intent, explain edge cases, mention file names—your voice carries nuance that typing shortcuts.

Works in VS Code, Cursor, JetBrains, Xcode—any editor. Dictate prompts to AI coding assistants.

Technical Term Accuracy

Cloud AI models excel at technical jargon, code terminology, and specialized vocabulary.

Custom Dictionary

Add names, technical terms, and jargon. Ottex transcribes them accurately every time.

Voice Corrections

Say 'scratch that' to delete mistakes, 'actually' to rephrase. Fix errors without stopping your flow or touching the keyboard.

Inline AI Commands

Transform text as you speak: 'Ottex start fix grammar Ottex end'. Edit, improve, translate—all by voice.
