The Magic of Automatic Punctuation and Formatting
From speech to polished text
Speak naturally, get professionally formatted text.
The short answer: enable Message Ready in AICHE's enhancement panel, then speak naturally without saying "period" or "comma". AICHE adds punctuation, capitalizes properly, fixes grammar, and formats paragraphs automatically in 2-3 seconds.
Saying "comma" and "period" while dictating feels robotic and breaks your train of thought. Traditional dictation software requires you to speak punctuation marks, making a simple sentence take twice as long.
- Open AICHE and locate the enhancement panel on the left side of the window.
- Enable the "Message Ready" toggle before recording (it stays enabled for future recordings).
- Press your hotkey (⌃+⌥+R or Ctrl+Alt+R) and speak conversationally: "hey can you review the PR I pushed yesterday it fixes the authentication bug we discussed."
- AICHE transcribes your speech, then Message Ready adds punctuation and formatting: "Hey, can you review the PR I pushed yesterday? It fixes the authentication bug we discussed."
- Text appears at your cursor, ready to send. No manual editing needed.
Heads-up: Message Ready adds 1-2 seconds to processing time. For quick, informal notes where formatting doesn't matter, disable it to get raw transcription in under 2 seconds.
The pro-tip: Message Ready handles multi-sentence dictations intelligently. Speak three related thoughts in one recording, and it creates properly punctuated sentences with correct capitalization, perfect for email responses or Slack messages.
Result: dictate a 150-word email in 60 seconds of speaking. Message Ready formats it with proper punctuation, capitalization, and paragraph breaks. Text that would take 6 minutes to type and another minute to proofread.
Do this now: enable Message Ready, press your hotkey, and dictate "this is a test message it should have punctuation and proper formatting automatically" to see the transformation.
