With Dictate + Format. Your words, cleaned up and laid out for Outlook.Click where you’d type in Outlook
Vokalu types wherever your cursor is: a message box, a prompt, a document, a comment.
Hold the shortcut and talk
Hold Ctrl + Win on Windows or Control + Option on Mac. Correct yourself as you go (“no wait, Friday”); Vokalu keeps only what you meant.
Let go, then read it once
The text appears in Outlook, formatted for it. Check names, numbers and dates before you send anything.
What Vokalu does in Outlook
Text going into Outlook gets the email layout: your greeting on its own line, short paragraphs, the question or call to action on its own line, and your sign-off with your name below it. Nothing you didn’t say is added.
The Outlook apps are recognized by name, including the new Outlook for Windows. In a browser, Vokalu recognizes Outlook from the tab title, so keep the site’s name in it (it is by default). Only the name “Outlook” is used for formatting; the rest of the title stays on your computer.
Questions worth asking
Is this better than Outlook’s Dictate button?
It does different work. Outlook’s dictation types what you say. Vokalu also removes fillers, applies your corrections and lays the text out as an email, and works the same in every other app.
Does it work in Outlook on the web?
Yes, in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, as long as “Outlook” is in the tab title, which it is by default.
