Dictation for Slack
Slack is where a working day quietly turns into hundreds of short messages. Speakribe types them for you. Hold a shortcut, say the message, and it appears in the composer, ready to read over and send.
Can someone review the PR before end of day?
Just pushed the fix, can you re-run the pipeline when you get a sec?
Why it helps here
No single Slack message is long enough to feel worth optimising, which is exactly why it goes unexamined. The cost is the total: a standup update, six thread replies, and three quick answers is real typing, spread thin enough to be invisible.
Better for the reader, not just the writer
Spoken messages tend to carry the context typed ones drop, because saying the extra sentence costs nothing. Fewer follow-up questions.
Threads and DMs alike
It types into whatever composer has focus: a channel, a thread, a DM, or the edit box on a message you are fixing.
Nothing routed through a server
Work conversations stay on your Mac. There is no transcription service in the middle, which is the part IT usually asks about.
Things people say into Slack
- “Just pushed the fix, can you re-run the pipeline when you get a sec?”
- “Yesterday I finished the checkout flow, today I'm on the webhook retry logic, no blockers.”
- “Not urgent, but when you're back could you take a look at the staging errors from last night?”
- “Agreed on option two. I'll write it up and share a doc before Thursday.”
Questions people actually ask
- Does it work in Slack threads and DMs?
- Yes. Speakribe types into the focused field, so any Slack composer works the same way.
- Can I dictate formatting like bullet points?
- Speakribe produces clean punctuated prose. Slack's own formatting shortcuts still work on the text once it is there.
- Is it suitable for confidential work chat?
- Transcription never leaves your Mac and there is no Speakribe account or server, so nothing about the message is transmitted by us.
