The short answer: open any Postman request, click into the description field, press ⌃+⌥+R (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+R (Windows/Linux), speak for 30-50 seconds, and AICHE inserts the transcribed documentation at your cursor position.

Typing detailed API documentation with parameter explanations, response examples, and error cases takes 20-30 minutes per endpoint, leaving collections poorly documented.

  1. Open Postman desktop app or web version.
  2. Select a request and click the documentation tab.
  3. Click into the description or parameter documentation field.
  4. Press your AICHE hotkey to start recording.
  5. Speak your API explanation, including parameters, responses, and use cases.
  6. Press the hotkey again-AICHE transcribes and inserts the formatted text.
  7. Add code examples or JSON snippets using Postman's editor.

Heads-up: Postman supports markdown in descriptions. After dictating, add code blocks, tables, or links manually to structure your documentation.

The pro-tip: when documenting collections, dictate authentication setup and common error scenarios once at the collection level, then reference them in individual requests.

Result: documenting a 15-endpoint API that takes 6 hours of typing becomes 90 minutes of dictation, and your team gets complete API docs immediately.

Do this now: open a Postman request, click into the description, press your hotkey, and dictate what the endpoint does and when to use it.
