AI Rewrite

Process any note with AI presets — generate summaries, key points, translations, and more as variations.

The AI Rewrite feature lets you process any transcription with different AI presets directly from the note detail screen. Each result is saved as a variation — so you can generate summaries, key points, translations, and more from the same recording without losing any previous output.

How to Use

  1. Open any transcription from your history.
  2. Tap the AI button in the bottom toolbar (the purple gradient button).

Variation Tabs

Each variation is shown as a tab at the top of the note detail screen:

  • Original — your raw transcription, always preserved.
  • Named tabs — each AI-processed variation shows the preset name and icon (e.g. Summary, Coding, Key Points).
  • + button — when you have multiple variations, a quick-add button appears to generate more.

Tap any tab to view that variation. The original transcription is never modified.

Available Presets

VivaDicta ships with 40+ built-in presets organized by category:

  • Rewrite — Regular, Professional, Casual, Expand, Email, Chat, Coding, Rewrite
  • Summarize — Summary, Action Points, Takeaways, Mind Map, Key Points
  • Learn & Study — Study Notes, Definitions, Quiz, Flashcards, ELI5
  • Create — Blog Post, Social Media, Headline, Script
  • Translate — 20+ languages

You can also create custom presets with your own instructions in Settings → Presets.

Favorites

Tap the heart icon on any preset to mark it as a favorite. Favorite presets appear first in the AI Rewrite sheet, making your most-used presets quick to access. A refresh icon next to the heart means VivaDicta has already generated a variation with that preset for this note — tapping it will regenerate.

Tips

  • Generate multiple variations from the same recording — compare a Summary with Key Points, or try Professional vs Casual tone.
  • Long recordings work great with Summary and Action Points to extract the essentials.
  • Use Coding to extract code snippets, commands, or technical content from a dictated recording.
  • Translate a recording into multiple languages — each translation is saved as its own variation.
