Turn speech into prose.
TL;DR. Speech is alive, but it is messy on the page. ORAT turns spoken thought into readable prose without sanding away the person who said it.
Why speech does not read like writing
We talk in fragments, restart sentences, and reach for the word we want. A transcript shows all of it. Prose hides the search and leaves the result.
What ORAT changes
Filler words, false starts, repetition, and basic punctuation. Paragraphs and dialogue line breaks.
What ORAT leaves alone
Your vocabulary, sentence rhythm, idioms, and any sentence you actually finished.
Use cases
Fiction, memoir, essays, blog posts, speeches, and journals.
Example: raw voice to polished prose
Raw voice: um okay so she walks into the room and she's like really nervous right because she hasn't seen him in like ten years no wait eleven years and the whole place smells like that cologne he used to wear
After ORAT: She walks into the room nervous, because she has not seen him in eleven years. The whole place smells like the cologne he used to wear.
Formatting, not invention. Every word here was actually said.
FAQ
What is speech-to-prose?
A workflow where you record yourself talking and the result is turned into readable written prose, not a verbatim transcript.
Is this just transcription?
No. Transcription is step one. Shaping into paragraphs and prose, while keeping your voice, is the part that matters.
What happens to filler words?
They are removed in shaping. You will not see your 'ums' on the page.
Can I use it for essays?
Yes. Argue the point out loud, then let ORAT format the result.
Can I export the result?
Yes. DOCX and EPUB exports, plus backups to Dropbox or email.
