Features
- Problem

- Voice input can be used across everyday writing workflows.
- Why
- Lets users dictate without switching to a separate transcription window.
- Problem
- Natural speech includes verbal fillers.
- How it works
- Removes fillers such as “uh,” “um,” and “like” from dictated text.
- Result
- Users receive cleaner text from natural speech.
- Why
- Reduces cleanup after dictation.
- Problem
- Cloud dictation can expose audio and fail without connectivity.

- Why
- Keeps speech processing on-device and avoids network round trips.
- Problem
- Dictation tools may only work in selected apps.

- Makes one shortcut usable across a user's workflow.
- Problem

- Why
- Combines speech input and translation in one workflow.
- Problem
- Recurring dictation subscriptions increase long-term cost.
- How it works

- Why
- Provides ownership rather than a monthly plan.
