Hugo Marshall Jan 23, 2025 v@ initial release

Easily saves me an hour every day - I no longer have to type long winded “professional” sounding email replies to my colleagues, I just speak roughly with minimal effort 👏

Jamie Street Jan 21, 2025 v@ initial release

It’s a great tool (which I created) that I personally use every day - it speeds me up in every writing task I do!

Once you start speaking instead of typing everywhere, you’ll never look back - on average it speeds you by 3.75x.
