Pithflow

Features, in depth

The parts of Pithflow worth a full page each.

Feature
Hands-free mode
Push-to-talk is great for short messages, but long-form writing needs you to brainstorm without babysitting a key. Hands-free mode flips Pithflow into tap-on / tap-off, up to 20 minutes per session.
Feature
Snippets
Type the same intro paragraph 40 times a week? Snippets let you say a short trigger phrase and Pithflow expands it to your saved full text. Like TextExpander, but voice-triggered.
Feature
Personal Dictionary
Speech recognition is great at general English but mishears proper nouns ('Zamudio' → 'Sumudio'), brand names, and technical jargon. The Personal Dictionary lets you correct these once, forever.
Feature
Tones & Intent Modes
Other dictation apps give you 'casual' and 'formal'. Pithflow gives you 8 tone styles times 6 intent modes — 48 combinations. Each combination is genuinely different, not just a slider.
Feature
AI cleanup
Voice dictation without cleanup is just transcription — you'd still have to type-edit every "um" and rephrase. Pithflow's AI cleanup pass runs after every dictation and lands you a clean draft on the first try.
Feature
100+ languages
Pithflow's transcription model is multilingual-first, not English with bolted-on translations. 100+ languages including Spanish (LATAM + Spain), Portuguese (BR + PT), French, German, Japanese, Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic — all with auto-detection per clip.
Feature
Sub-second response
Speech-to-text is only useful if it feels instant. Pithflow returns cleaned text in under a second for short clips (one sentence) and 1-3 seconds for longer paragraphs. The wait between thinking and seeing your words shorter than a blink.
Feature
Specialty term packs
Generic dictation mishears professional vocabulary — "metoprolol" becomes word salad, "voir dire" becomes "vwa deer". Pithflow's specialty term packs teach the transcription your field's vocabulary, so professional dictation comes out clean the first time.
