🖊️ Featured tool: AudioPen 🖊️

AudioPen helps you go from fuzzy thought to clear text. Talking is easier than writing, but talking is messy. AudioPen fixes that, and gives you the best of both worlds – you talk, it writes.

It'll clean up what you say, and can even write in different styles. Want to write a legal-sounding notice? No problem. Want to write a blog post in the style of your favorite author? It can do that too. Or maybe you want to write a complex email without wasting time to make sure it is coherent. Consider it done.
