AICHE +Google Docs Integration
Voice input for cloud documents
Dictate into Google Docs from any application.
The short answer: open Google Docs in your browser, click where you want text, press ⌃+⌥+R (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+R (Windows/Linux), speak for 30-45 seconds, and AICHE transcribes and inserts the text automatically at your cursor position.
Google's built-in voice typing requires clicking a microphone icon each time, keeps the browser in focus, and stops transcribing if you switch windows or tabs.
- Open your Google Doc in Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.
- Click at the position where you want text to appear.
- Press your AICHE hotkey to start recording.
- Speak your content naturally, including punctuation cues if needed.
- Press the hotkey again-AICHE transcribes, applies Message Ready formatting if enabled, and inserts the text.
- Continue writing or dictate another section by repeating steps 3-5.
Heads-up: Smart Insert works reliably in Chrome and Firefox. Safari users may need to manually paste from the clipboard if automatic insertion fails.
The pro-tip: for formal documents, enable Clean Language in AICHE settings before recording. For business emails drafted in Google Docs, enable Message Ready to format your spoken words into professional text automatically.
Result: a 600-word report that takes 15 minutes to type becomes 4 minutes of dictation, and you can pace while thinking through your argument structure.
Do this now: open a new Google Doc, press your hotkey, and dictate a full paragraph about your current project instead of typing it.
