AICHE +Substack Integration
Voice input for newsletters
Speak your newsletter directly into Substack.
The short answer: open Substack editor, click into any text section, press ⌃+⌥+R (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+R (Windows/Linux), speak for 45-60 seconds, and AICHE inserts the transcribed newsletter content at your cursor position.
Typing 800-1,200 word newsletters takes 45-60 minutes per issue, limiting publishing frequency to weekly when you could ship 2-3x more consistently.
- Open Substack and create a new post.
- Click into the editor where you want to write.
- Press your AICHE hotkey to start recording.
- Speak your newsletter content, including stories and insights.
- Press the hotkey again-AICHE transcribes and inserts the formatted text.
- Add headings, links, or images using Substack's toolbar.
Heads-up: Substack's editor auto-saves frequently. Dictate one section at a time, let it save, then continue to the next to avoid losing work.
The pro-tip: enable Message Ready in settings for newsletter writing. Your conversational speech gets formatted into readable paragraphs that feel natural in email.
Result: a 1,000-word newsletter that takes 70 minutes of typing becomes 22 minutes of dictation plus 12 minutes of editing, and you publish twice as often.
Do this now: open a new Substack draft, press your hotkey, and dictate the opening story or hook for your next newsletter issue.
