More Ways to Use Your Voice

AI Assistant

A new preset turns VivaDicta into a voice-powered AI assistant. Speak your question or task — get a structured, formatted response. Like ChatGPT, but with your voice.

Auto-Translation

Set a Translate preset as your mode's default and every recording is automatically translated. Speak in any language — get text in English, Spanish, Russian, or any other language.

iCloud Sync

Transcriptions, presets, custom dictionary, and API keys sync seamlessly across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac via iCloud.

Clipboard & Text Context

AI processing can use your clipboard or selected text as context. Copy a message and dictate your reply, or paste an email and voice-dictate your response.

AI Presets & Variations

Process any transcription with multiple AI presets — Summary, Email, Coding, and more. Each result is saved as a variation so you can compare outputs side by side.
