    I'll definitely do that, thank you. My use case is fairly simple right now - generating prompts for cursor.com - and it's a huge time saver. In fact I mainly use it for AI prompt generation to save on typing but I do plan to use it more universally and I'll send feedback as I do.

    I’ve been using it for that as well, one thing that I keep thinking about is adding YOLO mode where it autpastes without the windows popping up. Thoughts?

    I would use that for sure. The windows don't bother me but I also never look at them either, so it would be cleaner to have YOLO mode.

    Hi Yousif Astarabadi, I have had a thought on something that might improve the usefulness of TalkTastic. It would be great to be able to provide custom instructions to the rewrite process. For example, I always end emails with a certain sign off and I would like to be able tell it to always use that. Another example is I would like to tell it to use/not use certain words or phrases I never use, or to tell it to reply to emails is a certain style, like "business casual using plain language". So in general just a way to guide the rewrite. I imagine it working something like the custom rules in my current IDE of choice, Cursor.com. Thanks. Cheers, Richard P.S. For casual emails I use the sign off above. For business I use: Thank you. Regards, Richard I always have to rewrite these since the LLM tends to like "Kind regards".

    I stumbled on a similar tool btw and tried it. It's called superwhisper and the interface is great and has the YOLO mode you suggested above. It has a glaring issue however - it does transcription but doesn't rewrite. That made me realise how useful and what a great feature the rewrite is, which lead me to realise it would be much better if I could "train" it in my style/voice.
