Why dictate email
How Voice Dictation Works for Email
Many professionals write dozens of emails a day. At an average typing speed of 40 WPM, that's hours spent on the keyboard. Voice dictation for email lets you speak naturally at 150+ WPM and get professionally formatted messages, complete with greetings, proper punctuation, and appropriate sign-offs.
Oravo is different from browser-based voice dictation tools like Voice In or Dictation.io. It works at the system level, so it's not limited to Chrome. Dictate in Gmail's web interface, the Outlook desktop app, Apple Mail, or any other email client. Same for messaging: Slack desktop app, Teams, WhatsApp, iMessage, Discord all work seamlessly.
What makes Oravo the best choice for email dictation is context awareness. The AI detects whether you're in Gmail (professional tone), Slack (casual tone), or Teams (business casual) and formats accordingly. No need to switch modes or correct tone manually.
