- NovaVoice is a desktop application for macOS and Windows no hardware, no waitlist, no vaporware. It is live and free to download today.
- NovaVoice is not just a dictation tool. It eliminates the three most common friction points in a knowledge worker's day: switching to ChatGPT to process a thought, switching apps to send a message, and the gap between how fast you think and how fast you can type. It addresses real daily pain, not a hypothetical one.
- The product is built around a single insight: the interface should disappear. Hotkey activation, context-aware formatting that matches the app you're in, a popover that applies any AI prompt to any text on screen the experience is designed to feel like an extension of thought, not a tool you have to manage.
- The formatting engine lets users define rules in plain language: "make it sound like my grandpa" with a reference attached, or "always output send-ready emails when I dictate in Mail."
I like the idea of a voice-first workflow, but the real challenge is always consistency once you move beyond demos. Acting across apps, formatting text, and staying context-aware sounds great, but in day-to-day messy usage things usually break or need correction. How close is this to something you can actually rely on without constantly fixing outputs or switching back to keyboard?

@moh_codokiai As a team, we are users of our own product — developers, product managers and designers who use our tool in day-to-day routine. I want to say that I couldn't do my daily tasks without Nova already. I hope you will find use cases that will create a new habit of voicing your computer.
To become a voice OS is our big long-term goal — we move toward it each day, and every iteration will decrease the necessity of keyboard usage.

@moh_codokiai Thanks for your comments, Moh!
All our founding team and our early users constantly use NovaVoice on daily basis.
To be honest, the point is in creating a habit.
If somebody would say me in October that I will dictate 99% of the text I am producing
while I am working inside the computer, I would be surprised 😁
But now, when I gained the habit and understood how easier and faster it is to execute the majority
of actions by voice, I can't go back.
I write the majority of texts by voice, I format the text either by the formatting rules
enabled in NovaVoice for specific apps or by a popover window and preset styles in there.
I also use the voice assistant way more often than googling, searching in perplexity or using translators.
And of course, executing actions in apps, I send the majority of emails and messages
by voice commands.
Voice is the way forward. Curious — are you using ElevenLabs under the hood for the voice layer, or have you built your own models? The quality bar they've set is wild and I'm interested in how new voice products are approaching it. Typing is the bottleneck for everything I do, happy to see people building real voice-first tools instead of bolting voice onto a text app.

@maria_fitzpatrick Thanks for your comment, Maria!
We're using different models for different use cases as we are a tool beyond dictation. We also do formatting, AI assistant, and app control.
It's actually true that ElevenLabs' quality is fascinating, and I 100% agree with you that typing and switching between apps manually is bottleneck, and that's why we are building NovaVoice.
Congratulations on the launch, team! Super excited to try Nova. I’ve never quite learned to type fast let alone blind and honestly, I’m happy not to have to learn that skill. Typing is one of the main limitations for me and it’s frustrating, so I’m ready to be the #1 fun. Just one quirky question: does Nova support switching between languages in real time? :p
NovaVoice
@emiliia_khasanova Thank you, Emilia. You're actually so right. I deleted a task from my to-do list, "learn ten-finger typing," after we built Nova, because I'm not typing manually anymore.
Regarding your question, yes, we support switching between languages in real time during one dictation session, and we are also good in capturing abbreviations and names properly.
This is a really clean execution on a category that's been messy for years. The 45 wpm typing vs 200+ wpm speaking framing is a strong hook ,makes the value obvious in one glance.
Quick question: how well does it handle accents and technical vocabulary? Most dictation tools I've tried fall apart on anything outside neutral American English, especially for non-native speakers. Curious if you've tested it with Indian/European accents.
Either way, congrats on the launch 🚀

This feels like a shift from “apps as interfaces” to “intent as interface.”
The context-aware formatting across tools is especially interesting — that’s where most voice tools break.
Curious: how are you handling ambiguity in commands across apps? Like if I say “message Alex,” how does NovaVoice decide between Slack, WhatsApp, email, etc.?
Also, how far are you planning to push automation — more like assistant suggestions, or full-on agent actions?
NovaVoice
@vamshi_gaddi Hi, thank you for your reply! If you say "Message Alex," our system will ask you where you want to send the message, and then our integration will handle the message. As for automation — we have great plans to build a passive learner agent that automatically understands which apps you use, what words you prefer, and what styling rules you follow, so it can provide a better experience without you ever needing to open our app. You just dictate, and Nova handles the rest.
NovaVoice
@vamshi_gaddi Thanks for the comment and curious questions!
As my co-founder Tony already answered you, I couldn't describe it better than he did:)
Everything is held by action approvals and assistant help.
We are going to push automation as forward as our users would want it to be. We build product for real people and want them to truly benefit from using it
NovaVoice
@moyatusovka Thank you, Marina!
Yes, that's on our roadmap. We will notify you when we'll have it.
Is support for other platforms planned (mobile/browser versions)?
Congratulations on the launch btw
NovaVoice
@anatoly_savinov Thanks! Yes, we plan to ship NovaVoice for mobile and discuss a potential browser extension, I'll keep you updated.
