Frequently asked questions
Can I dictate directly into legal tech platforms?+
Yes. Ottex works anywhere you can type—contract management systems, matter management tools, Notion, Confluence, Google Docs. System-wide on macOS means no integrations needed. Press Option+D and dictate into any field.
How do I document complex processes by voice?+
Say 'heading two', 'bullet point', 'numbered list' for structure. Use AI commands to polish: 'Ottex start, make this more formal, Ottex end'. You can dictate an entire process flow, then format it with voice commands.
Is it good for vendor evaluation notes?+
Vendor evaluations require capturing detailed observations—feature comparisons, pricing structures, implementation concerns. Speaking lets you capture nuance that gets lost when typing. After a vendor demo, dictate your notes immediately while context is fresh.
Can I use it for legal tech implementation documentation?+
Implementation docs require detailed explanations—configuration decisions, workflow mappings, user training notes. Speaking lets you explain naturally, then polish with AI commands. Document implementations much faster than typing.
How does it help with metrics reporting?+
After analyzing legal department metrics, dictate your insights and recommendations directly into reports. Explain what the data shows, why it matters, what actions to take. Your stakeholders get actionable insights faster.
