Voice and audio file transcription is handled by ChatGPT's built-in dictation (OpenAI Whisper). Files never leave your machine for our servers — they go directly from your browser to your ChatGPT session. All text stays on your device. PERFECT FOR CHROMEBOOK Need higher accuracy for accented speech, noisy environments, or technical terms? Micly brings Whisper-powered voice-to-text to your Chromebook with a simple Chrome extension — plus a multi-round dictation workflow and audio file upload for building up longer text. No sideloading, no workarounds. Just install and speak (or upload). TIPS - Use the keyboard shortcut for quick access from any app - Click "Transcribe audio" at the bottom-left to upload a recording — meeting notes, voice memos, podcasts, lecture audio - Choose Speed mode to halve transcription time for long files - Click the shortcut hint at the bottom to customize your shortcut - Switch between Chat Mode and Dictation Mode with the toggle in the bottom-right corner - You can manually edit the transcribed text, then press Enter to copy your changes - Chrome may show a "Proceed with caution" warning during install — this is normal for all new extensions and will disappear as Micly gains more users.
