What is AudioPen?
Rambling speech into polished text.
Who is AudioPen best for?
AudioPen is best for people who think out loud and want spoken ideas turned into clean writing.
Writers and creators
Talk through an idea for a few minutes and get a structured first draft back in your own voice, ready to edit.
Replies typed by voice
On Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android it types into any text field, so a spoken reply lands in Gmail or Slack already cleaned up.
People with dyslexia or RSI
Speaking replaces most of the typing, and the rewrite removes filler words, false starts and repeated sentences.
Writing in a second language
Speak in the language you think in and have the note written in another, such as dictating in Spanish and sending in English.
