Examples of configured commands

Control your apps

Open programs, adjust the volume and use keyboard shortcuts.

Speak instead of typing

Dictate into apps and text fields.

Build your own workflows

One phrase runs the sequence of actions you choose.

Dictation example: a spoken phrase appears in an app’s text field.

01 / Dictation

Keep up with
your thoughts.

Speak, and Laitis enters the recognized text into your chosen app. Set up text replacements and editing commands to suit your speech.

  • Choose how you activate the microphone.
  • Dictate notes, messages and first drafts.
  • Add your own abbreviations and replacements.

02 / Browser

Make the web
listen, too.

Switch tabs, scroll pages and run configured actions on page elements. The extension connects your browser to Laitis.

Install the extension to control web pages. Browser permissions and individual websites can limit available actions.

Chrome extension
Extension example: one configured command fills the search field; another scrolls the page.

03 / Your commands

One phrase.
A whole workflow.

Choose a phrase and arrange the steps in the editor: open an app, press a shortcut, enter text or speak a response.

  • Several phrases for the same command.
  • Conditions and variables for your context.
  • A clear sequence instead of repetition.
Add your phrases and actions, try the workflow, and save it. This example opens a browser, presses a keyboard shortcut, and speaks text.

Start with a collection.
Make it your own.

Install command collections from the community, then edit their phrases and actions. Publishing your own collection is a separate choice; review its contents before sharing.

A ready-made collection becomes your commands. Make a phrase your own; publishing your changes is a separate action.

Your recognition choice

Where does
your voice go?

Alpha lets you choose local recognition or an online service. These are different data paths.

On your device

A Sherpa/Nemotron model recognizes speech locally after a separate download. System engines depend on your OS and available languages.

To your chosen provider

When you use online recognition, the selected service receives the audio. Online speech synthesis sends it the text to speak.

Local recognition does not turn off updates, the community or cloud synchronization. The Privacy Policy explains data handling and history.

How your data is handled
A local model recognizes audio on your device after the model download. A selected cloud service receives audio and returns text. The Privacy Policy explains other network features and data storage.

A few useful answers

Before
you start.

What does Alpha mean?

Laitis 7 is the next generation of the app across three platforms. Features and compatibility are still being refined. Back up your collections before switching; actions tied to Windows will need adapting.

Can I use it offline and without an account?

Core local commands and dictation do not require an account. Local recognition in Alpha works after a model download. Online providers, the community, updates and Connect need an internet connection.

Does the Laitis server receive my microphone audio?

Normal recognition in Alpha does not send microphone audio to the Laitis server. A cloud provider receives audio directly when selected. Local history can keep audio and text in memory for review. Read about your data.

What syncs through my account?

A cloud save contains settings and your command library, not a dictation log. Commands and variables can include personal data and service keys; the archive is not end-to-end encrypted. Alpha lets you turn off synchronization in settings.

What system and browser permissions are needed?

macOS may request microphone, speech recognition and Accessibility permissions. The extension needs access to pages for selected actions. Linux Alpha primarily targets X11; Wayland capabilities differ.

Can I connect an AI agent?

Alpha includes a local MCP integration. You enable it separately and choose read, edit or control permissions. Consider what data your AI client will receive; the integration is off by default.

How do I delete cloud data?

Uninstalling the app does not delete an account. For deletion or access requests, email blasterloremaster@gmail.com. The Privacy Policy describes stored data and backup limitations.
