How to Code, Write, and Prompt 3x Faster With Voice
Voice-to-text that actually works. Hold a key, talk, release. Works in every app. 3x throughput on the most common activity in knowledge work.

The bottleneck in all knowledge work
You know what you want to say. You know what you want to build. The translation from brain to keyboard is slow, lossy, and exhausting.
Most people type 40-60 words per minute. Most people speak 130-150. That's a 3x gap on the single most common activity in knowledge work.
Wispr Flow removes the bottleneck. Hold a key, talk, release. Works in every app on your Mac. Not old speech-to-text. It understands what you mean and formats it properly.
Why it matters if you build with AI
Building with AI is mostly writing. Prompts. Code comments. Slack messages. Documentation. Pull request descriptions. AI made writing the highest-leverage skill — the better your prompt, the better the output.
When you write at the speed of speech, everything compounds faster. You write longer, more detailed prompts. Better prompts mean better AI output. You document decisions in real time instead of retroactively.
