I wanted to let you know that the design review moved to Thursday at 3. Can you send the updated mockups to Sarah before then?

so um I wanted to let you know that the the design review moved to Thursday at three and uh can you send the updated mockups to Sarah before then
01 / How it works
Three steps. No window to manage.
Voice stays out of the way until you need it, then opens where you're already working.
Open it where you are.
Click the mic in the menu bar or press ⌥⇧Space. The panel opens right under your cursor, in whatever app you're using.
Talk.
Your words appear as you speak. Whisper runs on your Mac, so the audio never leaves it. Press Space or the shortcut again to stop.
Review, then copy.
Claude removes the ums and fixes punctuation. Compare it with the original, then copy it and paste with ⌘V.
02 / Keyboard shortcuts
Set the keys. Keep your hands where they are.
Every action has a shortcut you can set yourself. Record it in Settings and it works from any app.
| Action | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Dictate | ⌥⇧Space | Opens at the cursor and starts. Press again to stop, and again to copy. |
| Push to talk | Your choice | Hold to record, release to stop. |
| Show / hide panel | Your choice | Opens or closes the panel without recording. |
| Copy last transcript | Your choice | Copies the last result without opening anything. |
| Cancel dictation | Your choice | Stops and discards the current dictation from any app. |
03 / What runs where
Your voice stays on your Mac.
Transcription is local. Cleanup is optional. Copying always waits for you.
Speech to text
Whisper turns your voice into text on-device. After a one-time model download, it works offline.
Claude cleanup
With your own Anthropic API key, Claude tidies the text transcript. Turn it off for the raw words.
Clipboard
The panel asks before copying. Nothing is pasted or typed into your apps for you.
04 / A few things to know
Before you start talking.
Does my voice leave my Mac?
No. Speech is turned into text on your Mac with Whisper. If you turn on Claude cleanup, only the text transcript is sent to Anthropic, using your own API key. The audio is never uploaded.
Does it type into my apps?
No. Nothing reaches your clipboard until you review the text and choose Copy. Then paste it wherever you like with ⌘V.
What does Claude change?
It removes filler words, stutters, and self-corrections, fixes punctuation, and follows spoken commands like “new paragraph.” It keeps your words and tone. You can always switch to the original transcript before copying.
Which speech models can I use?
Whisper Large v3 Turbo (574 MB) is the default and works in any language. Small and Base are lighter English models. Apple Dictation is also available if Dictation is turned on in System Settings.
Can I change the shortcuts?
Yes. In Settings, click any shortcut and press the keys you want. They work from any app. Clear one with ⌫, or restore the defaults.
