VoiceType

Main Features & Characteristics:

1. Voice-to-Email: Say in a few words what you’d like to write, and VoiceType will write the whole email instantly. No transcription, no dictation—explain verbally what you want to write like you would to a personal assistant.
2. Contextual Replies: No need to narrate your whole email trail. Just say what you'd like to reply and VoiceType will tailor it to the email thread.
3. Exceptional Writing: Say goodbye to spelling errors and hard-to-understand sentences. Emails are always grammatically correct with no spelling errors.
4. Speech Recognition: Works even if English is not your native language or if you speak with an accent, as long as you can describe what you'd like to write.
5. Privacy: VoiceType reads your currently opened email and records your voice, but forgets everything as soon as your email is written. Processing happens without human supervision, data is discarded once done, and no personally identifiable information is stored (though data may be used to train the AI).

Usage Instructions: VoiceType is a tiny Chrome-browser extension that appears when you hit Compose or Reply in Gmail. Click on VoiceType to activate the microphone, and you can describe what you would like to write or reply at your own pace without needing specific words or phrases.
