Why Ottex works for product analysts
Concrete benefits with real-world impact
Custom Dictionary
Add names, technical terms, and jargon. Ottex transcribes them accurately every time.
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.
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.
Inline AI Commands
Transform text as you speak: 'Ottex start fix grammar Ottex end'. Edit, improve, translate—all by voice.
Works with AI Chatbots
Dictate prompts to ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity—anywhere you type. Better prompts, better answers.
App-Specific Modes
Ottex detects which app you're in and adapts. Coding mode in Cursor, casual tone in Slack, professional in Gmail—automatic context switching.
Context Awareness
Optionally let AI see your screen for smarter responses. Reply to emails with full context, answer messages knowing the conversation history.
Smart Snippets
Define custom text replacements and shortcuts. Say 'work signature' to expand your full email signature, or 'my address' for your contact info.
Global Shortcuts
Start recording with Option+D, use Push-to-Talk, or cancel with Esc. All shortcuts are fully configurable.
Works in Any App
System-wide on macOS—Ottex works wherever you can type. No app-specific integrations needed.

Automatically removes filler words like 'um', 'uh', 'like', 'so' from your transcription. Get clean, professional text without verbal hesitations.

Frequently asked questions
Can I dictate while looking at dashboards?
Yes. Press Option+D and speak your observations while analyzing Amplitude, Mixpanel, or any dashboard. Your insights go directly into Notion, Google Docs, or wherever you document. No context switching between data and documentation.
How do I document A/B test results quickly?
Dictate your experiment summary immediately after reviewing results. Speak the hypothesis, methodology, results, and recommendations naturally. Use 'new paragraph' and 'bullet point' for formatting. What used to take 30 minutes of typing takes 10 minutes of speaking.
Does it understand analytics terminology?
Yes. Gemini 3 Flash accurately transcribes terms like 'DAU', 'MAU', 'retention cohort', 'p-value', 'statistical significance'. Add company-specific metrics and product names to your custom dictionary for perfect accuracy.
Can I use it for user research synthesis?
Absolutely. After reviewing user interviews or feedback, dictate your synthesis immediately. Speak the patterns, quote users directly (say 'quote' and 'end quote'), and capture insights while they're fresh. 3x faster than typing summaries.
How does it help with AI-assisted analysis?
Product analysts use ChatGPT and Claude constantly for data interpretation, SQL help, and insight generation. Speaking lets you provide rich context: 'Here's what I'm seeing in the data, the hypothesis I'm testing is...' Better prompts, better AI output.
Can I dictate SQL queries?
Yes. Dictate query logic naturally: 'Select user ID, count of events, from events table, where event name equals purchase, group by user ID.' Ottex transcribes accurately, though you may want to clean up syntax. Works great for explaining queries in documentation.
What about stakeholder presentations?
Dictate your analysis narratives for stakeholder decks. Speaking helps you explain the 'so what'coherently. Use AI commands to polish: 'Ottex start, make this more executive-friendly, Ottex end.'
What does it cost?
Free forever with local models. BYOK (bring your own API key) costs ~$1-3/month for heavy usage. Optional $9/month premium includes Gemini 3 Flash credits with zero config.
