Change the default Open Speakeasy Popup shortcut - Find the desired action (e.g., Open Speakeasy Popup), click the pencil icon next to the input box, and enter your preferred key combination (e.g., click the keys Control and the spacebar together to create the keyboard shortcut for Ctrl Space). 4. Refresh your browser page to ensure the shortcuts are active. **How it Works** 1. Open the Microphone Popup - Mac: Shift + Command + Y (default, you can change this) - Windows: Shift + Alt + Y (default, you can change this) - Customize this shortcut as described below under "Customizing Keyboard Shortcuts." 2. Start/Stop Recording - The microphone starts recording automatically when the popup opens. - Space: Stop recording immediately or toggle the microphone off/on - Note: This space shortcut is active only when the cursor is not in the Prompt Textbox 3. Select Your Language - Choose your preferred language from the dropdown menu. This setting is saved locally for future use so you do not have to specify it each time. 4. Dictation - Pause After Speaking: After you speak, pause for a second or two to allow the extension to catch up. This will display your dictation in the textbox. - Check and Edit: Pause occasionally to see how your words are transcribed. If there's an error, click the red stop button to adjust. You can then place your cursor where needed and continue by toggling the start-stop button. - No Punctuation Needed: Don't worry about punctuation like commas, periods, or question marks. The AI chatbot can understand without them. If you want to add punctuation, you can stop and insert it manually, but it's generally unnecessary. - Automatic Scrolling: The textbox will automatically scroll down as you pause, showing the last few lines of what you said. You can also manually scroll up and down if needed. 5. Editing Text - Edit the text in the Prompt Textbox or restart your speech-to-text input from any cursor position. - Use Shift+Enter to add a line. - Friendly reminder: Pressing Enter sends the text to the AI so please use Shift+Enter if you want to add a line - The textbox will automatically scroll if the text is too long to fit. 6. Sending Text to AI Chatbot - Press Enter to send the text and close the popup. - Or, click the green check button below the Prompt Textbox to send the text to the AI Chatbot. - Friendly reminder: Inside the textbox use Shift+Enter instead of Enter to add a line. 7.

This is due to the inherent design of the API, which is optimized for English. If you encounter suboptimal STT quality in your preferred language, we suggest trying the English setting for a potentially improved experience. While we recognize this may not be an ideal solution for everyone, please understand that within the constraints of the current technology, this is the best free service we can provide. **Shape the Future with Us!** Do you have a favorite AI chatbot you'd like AI Speakeasy to support? We are always looking to improve and expand our capabilities. If there's a particular chatbot you'd love to see integrated, please send us a message. We'll take a look and try to add it to the list. Currently, AI Speakeasy supports ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. **We Prioritize Your Privacy** AI Speakeasy does not collect or store personal data on external servers. All speech-to-text transcriptions are processed through Google's Chrome browser using the Web Speech Recognition API, and your preferences are stored locally on your device via Google Chrome's local storage. While the Google APIs we employ may manage data according to their own protocols—over which we have no control—we assure you that we, the developers of AI Speakeasy, do not have access to your data and do not share it with any third parties, including ourselves. Thus, beyond what is necessary for the functionality of the Google APIs, your information remains strictly confidential and is not disclosed to ourselves or any third parties. **Elevate Your Experience!** Enhance your AI chat interactions with AI Speakeasy.
