Arc Voice Dictation

Speak into any text box in Arc. Every page, every app.

Hold a key. Speak your thoughts. Keep your flow.

Write where you work

Arc brings everything into one browser and Aqua works across all of it. Hold a key and speak into any text box on any tab at up to 230 words per minute. Search bars, web apps, forms, email clients, note tools, AI interfaces: if it has a text box and it is open in Arc, Aqua works in it.

Because Aqua reads your screen, it understands the context of each text box you are in. It adapts its output to the surface: concise in a search bar, structured in a document, conversational in a chat. Your custom dictionary follows you across every tab so your specific vocabulary is always recognized, no matter what you are working on.

@0xferruccio

For coding prompting with voice nothing beats @aquavoice All the other transcription apps don't work well with code like tailwind class names

@chiggyAI

just tried out @aquavoice and by far the most accurate voice to text tool i've used!!

@TheNathanRuff

Been using @aquavoice for a few months. Unbelievably better than the other companies that do this

@jamesfong

3 products that have broken into my forever home. And that's not an easy feat for me: @circlebackai, @aquavoice, and @superset_sh

@tzmartin

tbh @aquavoice is a vibe coder's delight.. lowest latency, highest quality STT I've used so far

@juanbuis

this is why @aquavoice is better than all other AI transcription apps it actually writes like you talk

@heyvyner

Mapping @aquavoice to this button on my mouse is a whole different level of productivity.

@nozmen

Aqua Voice: I barely type long prompts now, just talk. Saved ~5 hrs typing in 2 weeks. Much more accurate than macOS dictation.

@gkossakowski

Aqua is a true power tool: quick, reliable and understands your context - they were early at appreciating the value of context engineering.

@jackson_felty

@aquavoice is a prime example of how much better a product can be when the team focuses on making one simple use case incredible

@ArtemR

Aqua Voice @aquavoice is the voice-based text editor I think all of us have always wanted, but no company has been able to deliver so far. The demo is extremely impressive

@jaymehoffman

@aquavoice has saved me over 2 days of typing

@thebuildguy
