Works across real desktop tools
Use one voice layer for email, Slack, Linear, GitHub, Google Docs, Cursor, browsers, and normal text boxes.
Dictation
Speak into the app you already use.
Peanut turns natural speech into useful text across normal desktop text fields. Use it for email, docs, tickets, prompts, notes, chat, and the internal tools that never get a perfect integration.
Start
Press your configured shortcut and speak naturally.
Finish
Peanut cleans the text and pastes it where your cursor is.
Fallback
If an app blocks simulated paste, copy or paste manually from history.
Capture the whole thought
Say the nuance, caveat, and next step without compressing the idea down to what you can type quickly.
Keep useful sessions
Recent dictation can live in history for replay, copying, and review instead of disappearing after paste.

Dictation is the front door.
The difference is what Peanut adds around it: formatting, snippets, read-aloud, translation, history, and provider controls.
