Before and after

Client reply, dictated between meetings — "Professional email" shortcut

Cmd/Ctrl Shift P

Before

um so basically tell her the new designs are done we just didn't get to the mobile screens yet because the api thing ate our week and ask if it's ok if we show everything together on thursday instead of sending half now

After

Hi Priya — the new designs are ready. The mobile screens aren't finished yet (an API issue took most of our week), so rather than sending half now, I'd like to walk you through everything together on Thursday. Does that still work for you?

Dictated in Portuguese on the commute — "English business email" shortcut

Cmd/Ctrl Shift P

Before

então fala pra ele que o deploy atrasou por causa da migração do banco a gente precisa de mais um dia e que o ambiente de teste já vai estar pronto na quarta de manhã sem falta

After

Quick update: the deploy slipped by one day due to a database migration issue. The test environment will be ready by Wednesday morning without fail — I'll confirm as soon as it's live.

Post-call note for the CRM — "Call summary" shortcut

Cmd/Ctrl Shift P

Before

After

Acme — call summary: the renewal discount failed to apply for the third time, and the customer is understandably frustrated. I've promised a credit on this month's invoice. Action for Billing: find out why the coupon keeps detaching, before the next cycle on July 1.

FAQ

Questions before you install

How do I send an email by speaking instead of typing?

Dictate the reply the way you'd explain it out loud — half-sentences, filler words, and backtracking are all fine — then select the transcript, press Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+P, and pick a shortcut like "Professional email." Rewrait rewrites the rambling transcript into a structured message right where your cursor is; review it, optionally flip between Warmer, Shorter, and More direct variants, and send. The key point: you never send raw transcription. Speech-to-text alone produces text that reads like talking, which is why most people quit dictating after a week — cleaning up the transcript costs more than typing would have. The rewrite step removes that cost. And because Rewrait is a native layer on Mac and Windows rather than an email plugin, the same flow works in Gmail, Outlook, Slack, and your support desk. A 30-second spoken ramble typically comes back as three clean sentences.

Can I dictate in Spanish or Portuguese and send the email in English?

Yes — dictation language and output language are independent. Rewrait transcribes English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German, plus an automatic multilingual mode for people who switch languages mid-thought; you set the preference once in settings. The rewrite step then produces whatever the shortcut asks for: dictate your update in Portuguese, run an "English business email" shortcut, and the polished result comes out in English. For non-native English professionals this removes the slowest writing path there is — composing in your head in one language while typing in another. Say it naturally in the language you think in; send it in the language the recipient expects. On Pro and Team plans transcription runs on Deepgram's nova-3 multilingual model; the Free plan includes basic dictation, enough to test the flow before upgrading.

How is this different from dictation apps like Wispr Flow?

Dictation apps solve transcription. Wispr Flow, the best known of them, turns speech into clean, well-formatted text in any app and does it very well — but it's voice input only: what you get is what you said, tidied. If you think in finished sentences, that's enough. Most people don't: a spoken draft rambles, repeats itself, and buries the ask in the middle, so the transcript still needs editing before anyone should receive it. Rewrait covers both halves of the job — the same multilingual dictation, plus the rewrite layer dictation tools don't have: saved shortcuts, tone variants (Warmer, Shorter, More direct), and on Team plans your company's shared styles and approved context documents. The honest framing: if you only want fast, accurate speech-to-text, a dedicated dictation app is a fine choice. If you want to talk for 30 seconds and send something polished, transcription is half the job.

Do I need a paid plan for voice dictation?

No. The Free plan ($0) includes basic dictation and 30 rewrites a month at up to 1,000 characters — enough to test the dictate-then-rewrite flow on real messages. Pro is where dictation gets serious: $12/mo billed annually ($144/yr) or $15 monthly upgrades transcription to Deepgram's nova-3 multilingual model and adds unlimited rewrites, a 10,000-character limit, premium rewrite models, and API access. Team ($20/seat/mo billed annually, $25 monthly, no seat minimum) adds shared workspace styles and approved company sources, so a dictated draft gets rewritten in your team's voice rather than a generic one. Every new account also starts with a 14-day Team trial — full features, no card — which is the right way to judge transcription quality on your own accent, vocabulary, and language before paying anything.
