- Mac users who prefer speaking to typing
- Worth noticing
- The three actions map to Command (Agent), Option (Dictate), and Control (Rewrite).
Field notes
The homepage demonstrates each modifier key with example requests: opening apps, rearranging windows, drafting replies, and asking calendar questions. Its Dictate examples include Indonesian-English mixed speech, and the page says it handles 99 languages; that coverage is a site claim, not independently tested here. The download is labeled version 1.1.6 and requires macOS 14 or later. A named builder credit identifies Raymond Chin in Jakarta.
