Dettivo

§ Replacements

Replacement rules

Deterministic source → target mappings applied during Polish. "Quote unquote" → empty. "Dot com" → ".com". Imported via `heard => wanted` lines, `heard -> wanted` lines, TSV, or CSV. Priority controls the order.

Who this is for

Users tuning Polish to handle their own speech patterns — verbal fillers, ordinal numbers, project names with non-obvious capitalization.

Candidate review queue

Dettivo watches for patterns — words you frequently retype after dictation, terms the STT consistently mishears. It surfaces these in a review queue in Settings › Dictionary. Promote each one to a replacement, promote to a dictionary term, or ignore. Nothing changes without your click.
