Why Ottex works for brand designers

Concrete benefits with real-world impact

3x Faster Than Typing

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.

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.

Inline AI Commands

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

Precision Typing

Say 'new paragraph', 'open quote', 'em dash', 'ellipsis'. Full formatting control by voice.

Voice Corrections

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

Frequently asked questions

Can I dictate directly into brand guideline documents?+

Yes. Ottex works anywhere you can type on macOS. Open your brand guidelines in Notion, Google Docs, or Figma, press Option+D, and speak your brand rationale. Ottex transcribes and inserts the text. Same workflow for style guides, voice and tone docs, or any text field.

How does it help with creative briefs?+

Creative briefs require translating client conversations and strategy into clear written direction. Instead of staring at a blank page, speak the brief naturally: 'The target audience is urban professionals aged 25-40 who value sustainability. The brand should feel premium but approachable. Key competitors are X and Y.' Your thoughts become the brief without the friction of typing.

Does it work with AI tools for brand concept exploration?+

Yes. Dictate detailed prompts to ChatGPT or Claude for brand concept brainstorming. Speaking naturally gives more context than typing bullet points. Describe the brand personality, target audience, competitor landscape, and the feeling you want to evoke. Better prompts mean better AI explorations.

Can I use different tones for different contexts?+

Yes. Work modes let you configure different formatting per app. Keep internal Slack messages casual and quick, client emails professional and polished, Figma comments specific and actionable. Describe your style once, Ottex adapts automatically based on where you're typing.

Will it understand brand terminology?+

Yes. Add brand-specific terms, client names, and design vocabulary to your custom dictionary. Terms like 'wordmark,' 'lockup,' 'brand architecture,' and your clients' brand names transcribe accurately every time.

How accurate is it for professional documents?+

With Gemini 3 Flash, accuracy is 99.1% on benchmark tests. Proper nouns, technical terms, and brand names transcribe correctly. Your brand guidelines and client presentations sound professional, not like raw speech.

What does it cost?+

Free forever with local models. BYOK (bring your own API key) costs ~$1-3/month for typical usage. Optional $9/month premium includes Gemini 3 Flash credits with zero config.
