Live product demo. In another app's window, hold the dictation hotkey: the Ordo floating capsule shows listening with a live waveform while rambling speech with filler words appears, then polishing, then a clean meeting note (decisions, action items, risks) is written into the field. In a second section, a code selection is highlighted, a hotkey is pressed, a spoken instruction is given, and the selection is rewritten in place. In a third section, a sentence is selected and answered in a small paper card without changing the original, and a framed screen region is explained.
Rewrite a selection
Select. Say the change. It's replaced in place.
Highlight any text in the app you're already in, press the rewrite hotkey, and speak the change. Ordo replaces just the selection.

Ask about a selection — or a screenshot.
Select text and ask: the answer pops in a card, your text untouched. Or frame any region of the screen and ask what's wrong.

A look inside
See what Ordo looks like
Beyond working in your other apps, Ordo gives you a calm home to review and shape your voice writing. Here's a quick tour.
Guided tour of the Ordo app itself. It steps through four screens. Home: the dashboard's today stats and trend chart are spotlighted. Dictionary: the auto-extracted, pending-review panel is spotlighted, where Ordo proposes terms learned from recent recordings. History: a transcript entry is spotlighted showing the as-spoken raw text beside the cleaned-up final version. Appearance: a pointer clicks theme swatches and the whole window re-skins live through several themes — paper, snow, redbean, ink, and night.
Review your voice writing at a glance — how much you wrote each day and how it's going.
