§ For developersAll use cases

Dictate into your editor.
Pipe transcripts into your agent.

Code review comments at 11pm. Commit messages on a walk. Voice notes that land directly in the file you’re editing — and a CLI, REST, and MCP server that let your scripts and agents read every transcript Dettivo has ever captured.

§ The current circuit

How most devs do this today

You start by pasting into ChatGPT for grammar passes. You move to native macOS dictation, which gives up on punctuation. You hand-edit every PR comment. You context-switch out of the editor to type a message, then back in. None of this is captured anywhere your agent can see.

§ How Dettivo fits

Tuned for IDEs

Enhanced dictation knows when the focused app is VS Code, Cursor, Zed, or JetBrains. It applies a code-aware polish profile — more code-fenced spans, fewer overly conversational rewrites.

→ App-specific polish profiles

First-class for coding agents

Dettivo ships a stdio MCP server. One config line drops it into Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex. Your agent gets tools to search transcripts, fetch the latest, insert one into the editor.

→ MCP server

Bundled CLI

dettivo status, dictation start/stop, transcript latest --format markdown, mcp serve. Pipe transcripts into anything. Script anything. Exit codes you can branch on.

→ CLI tool

Local REST on 127.0.0.1

One toggle in Settings starts a token-protected loopback HTTP server. Streaming import/export endpoints. Your local scripts never leave the box.

→ Local REST API

Quick Note → repo or vault

Dictate a quick note straight into a folder you pick — your Obsidian vault, your repo’s docs/notes/ tree, your scratch directory. No app stealing focus.

→ Quick Note

Dictation macros

Voice triggers map to shell commands behind an explicit allowlist. Run a deploy from the keyboard without touching a mouse. Every run lands in the audit log.
