Messages Integration

The short answer: open Messages on Mac, click into the message field, press ⌃+⌥+R, speak for 10-30 seconds, and AICHE inserts your formatted message ready to send.

Typing detailed messages about technical topics, project updates, or complex scheduling creates unnecessary friction when you're trying to maintain quick communication flow.

1. Open the Messages app on your Mac.
2. Select a conversation or start a new one.
3. Click into the message composition field.
4. Press your AICHE hotkey to start recording.
5. Speak your message naturally (example: "running about 10 minutes late, stuck in the meeting that went over, should be there around 2:45, let me know if you need to reschedule").
6. Press the hotkey again - AICHE transcribes, applies formatting, and inserts the text.
7. Press Return to send.

Heads-up: Messages on Mac supports rich text and formatting, but AICHE inserts plain text. If you need bold, italics, or special formatting, add those manually after dictation using Messages' formatting tools.

The pro-tip: use AICHE for explaining technical concepts to non-technical team members or clients via iMessage. Speaking your explanation produces clearer, more conversational text than trying to type simplified technical descriptions.

Result: sending 10-15 detailed messages that takes 20 minutes of typing becomes 6 minutes of dictation, and your messages convey more context without abbreviation.

Do this now: open Messages, select a conversation, press your hotkey, and dictate one message you've been planning to send but kept putting off because typing it felt like too much effort.
