01
What is AI dictation in Brassens?
AI dictation in Brassens means speaking naturally, then receiving cleaned-up speech-to-text in the app where your cursor was.
It is designed for everyday desktop writing: email, chat, documents, notes, code editors, and any place where copy-paste would slow you down.
02
How is AI dictation different from normal voice typing?
Normal voice typing usually inserts raw streaming text; Brassens waits for the thought, cleans it up, and inserts a better final version.
That lets Brassens focus on punctuation, app context, names, custom dictionary terms, and reusable snippets.
03
Does Brassens support dictionary and snippet workflows?
Yes. Brassens is built around custom vocabulary, proper nouns, acronyms, and snippets that should appear exactly as you mean them.
That is why it is useful for people who dictate the same client names, product names, signatures, commands, or templates every day.
04
Can AI dictation work offline?
Brassens can use local/on-device transcription modes where supported; cloud transcription still needs a network connection.
Choose the local path when your setup supports it and keeping audio on-device matters. Use cloud mode when you want hosted transcription.
