Typing is overrated.
Just talk.

Tucky is voice to text for your whole Mac. Press a hotkey, speak, and polished text appears wherever your cursor is. We spend our days prompting AI now, and prompts don’t need perfect wording. They need your thinking, fast. Speaking is the fastest way to get it out.

Step 1 · Voice to text

What if I just… talked?

It starts small. A prompt you can’t quite type. Press a key and say it out loud. The words appear at your cursor, cleaner than you said them. Strange at first. Then surprisingly natural.

1
Press the hotkey and speakDictate into ChatGPT, Claude, Slack, Gmail, VS Code — anywhere your cursor is.
2
Local AI cleans it upFiller words and false starts disappear. What lands is what you meant.
3
Keep movingText appears instantly at your cursor, or is saved as a note for later.

Step 2 · The trigger word

Why am I still typing?

Day one, talking to your laptop feels strange. By the end of the week, you’re speaking emails, code comments, and that message you’ve been putting off. Then you try: “Tucky, make this an email.” Your thoughts, with a little structure. Still in your voice.

1
Give it an instruction“Tucky, format this as an email.” “Tucky, turn this into bullet points.”
2
Keep your toneThe output is written the way you write, not like a template.
3
Make it yoursRename the trigger word, add your terminology, define your own formats.

Wait… this is all useful, isn’t it?

Then one evening, you open the library. The thoughts you saved this week are sitting there, searchable. And you wonder: if my thoughts are worth keeping, what about my conversations?

Step 3 · Meetings

Live transcription and call guidance, while you’re on the call.

Tucky notices when you join a Zoom, Meet, or Teams call and records it if you want it to. You get a live transcript as the call happens. Set up a template for what a great call looks like — a sales call, a discovery call, an interview — and Tucky tracks what’s been covered and suggests the next question in real time. None of your ideas get missed.

1
Record any meetingZoom, Google Meet, and Teams are detected automatically. You choose per app: always record, ask first, or never.
2
Get coached liveUse live guides for prompts during the call and optional templates to review it afterward. AI suggestions can miss context.
3
Walk away with everythingTranscript, summary, decisions, and follow-ups flow straight into your work memory.

Step 4 · Screen recordings

Easier to show than to explain? Record your screen.

Record a narrated product demo, client walkthrough, or bug report. Edit the recording locally, then export it or upload it to Google Drive. Generate a transcript when you want to search the narration.

Step 5 · One memory

What else does it know?

Weeks go by. Meeting notes, ideas, a walkthrough you narrated for a client. Bring them together by project, then ask: “What did we decide on pricing with Acme?” Get an answer with sources you can check.

1
Search every wordFull-text search across every note, meeting, and recording.
2

3
Context that compoundsInclude the project name and useful context when you capture an idea.

Step 6 · Put it to work

Recaps, answers, and an honest look at your week.

Ask questions about your saved work and inspect the sources behind each answer. Optional daily recaps are still being improved. For deeper prompt or workflow reviews, export notes or connect a compatible AI tool through MCP; that tool performs its own analysis.

How it builds up

It starts with voice to text. It ends with a memory of your work.

Each capture method feeds the next. First your voice replaces the keyboard. Then your meetings and screen recordings join in. Everything lands in one searchable place — and once it’s all there, Tucky can tell you what happened, what matters, and what to do next.

Keep your computer awake by voice

Tucky recognises the command and keeps your computer awake for the requested duration. Use it while a long-running command finishes or a queue of AI prompts works through its next steps.

Press your usual dictation hotkey and say:

“Tucky, keep my computer awake for two hours.”

No cloud backend. No account. No data sold. Dictation, recordings, transcripts, and project context stay under your control on your Mac.
