Frequently asked questions
Can Ottex handle academic and scientific terms?
Yes. Add your field's terminology to your custom dictionary — journal names, methodologies, technical terms — and Ottex transcribes them accurately.
Does it work while reading papers?
Yes. Keep your paper open and dictate notes alongside it. Speak your observations, critiques, and connections as you read — no context switching needed.
Can I organize notes with headings and sections?
Yes. Say 'heading', 'bullet point', or 'new paragraph' and Ottex formats your notes with structure. Custom modes can enforce specific note-taking templates.
Is it good for qualitative research?
Excellent. Speaking lets you capture nuanced observations and interpretive memos naturally — the kind of rich detail that gets lost when typing quickly.
