The problem

Sound familiar? These are the challenges that voice dictation solves.

AI agents need detailed prompts

Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex work best with detailed context. Typing long prompts is slow and breaks your flow.

Typing fatigue compounds

Modern development means constant AI interaction. Hours of typing prompts leads to wrist strain and mental exhaustion.

Context switching kills productivity

Stopping to carefully type out instructions breaks your mental model of the problem you're solving.

Privacy concerns with other tools

Some dictation apps capture screenshots of your IDE. Not ideal when working with proprietary code.

How Ottex helps

Voice dictation that actually works for your workflow.

Voice-first AI collaboration

Speak your prompts naturally to Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI agent. Describe what you want built, explain bugs, request refactors—all at the speed of thought.

Prompt AI to write docs for you

Instead of writing documentation yourself, speak prompts like 'add JSDoc comments to all exported functions' or 'generate a README for this module'. Let AI do the typing.

No screen capture, ever

Unlike Wispr Flow, Ottex never captures screenshots of your IDE. Your proprietary code stays private—critical when working with sensitive codebases.

Built for developers

Features designed specifically for your needs.

Works with any AI agent

Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, GitHub Copilot Chat—Ottex works wherever you type prompts.

Native Swift, low resources

Built natively for macOS. Uses less than 2% CPU—won't slow down your IDE or AI tools.

Custom dictionary

Add framework names, libraries, and technical terms. Ottex transcribes them accurately every time.

Voice corrections

Say 'scratch that' to delete mistakes. Refine prompts without touching the keyboard.

Inline AI commands

Transform text as you speak. 'Ottex start fix grammar in this prompt Ottex end'

BYOK pricing

Bring your own API key. Pay only for what you use—typically $1-5/month.

I spend all day talking to Claude Code now. Dictating prompts is so much faster than typing—I've reclaimed hours every week.
