Hi, I’m Robert. I care about workflows that save time without giving up creative control. In this class, I’ll show you how to set up AI-powered dictation the right way: fast transcription, focused prompting, and clear steps you can actually follow. We’ll keep it hands-on, and I’ll walk you through some of the exact workflows I use every day. You’ll leave with a setup you can use right away—and the confidence to tweak it so it fits your style.

Dictation isn’t new. What’s new is pairing it with AI so your words come out clean, clear, and aligned with your intent. This goes far beyond basic voice-to-text. We’ll combine speed with prompts that clean up sentences, tighten your writing, and, when needed, use what’s on your screen to understand context. Anyone can hit record and talk; not everyone knows how to make AI listen well—follow instructions, respect your tone, and turn raw speech into results. That’s the gap this class closes. You’ll learn the why behind effective prompting and build a personalized dictation setup that fits your voice, adapts to how you work, and integrates perfectly with your system. By the end, you’ll have prompts you can trust and the know‑how to adapt them, so your spoken thoughts turn into writing that sounds like you, not a machine—while helping you move faster and focus on the work that matters.

Requirements

• You’ll need a dictation app that lets you customize the AI prompt—that’s the key requirement. Many apps only offer fixed presets, which won’t work for the workflows in this class. If your app supports custom prompting (and ideally window/app context or similar features), you’re good to go.
• Examples will be shown with Superwhisper. The methods carry over to apps that allow custom instructions.

Who this class is for

• Writers, creators, entrepreneurs, and knowledge workers who deal with words daily
• Non‑native English speakers who want natural‑sounding results
• Anyone who wants AI to help with text-related tasks, without taking over

Why this matters

• Productivity: Speak once, get clean text that’s ready to use
• Creativity: Think out loud and shape it with prompts that respect your style and ideas
• Control: You decide how much the AI edits—and you keep your voice

What you’ll learn

• The four-level framework for AI dictation (from raw text to specialized workflows)
• Prompting for dictation: markdown and XML structures that actually follow instructions
• When to use local vs. cloud transcription (privacy, speed, accuracy trade‑offs)
• Indeas on using context awareness to pull in what’s on screen for faster, smarter results
• Model selection tips: prioritize instruction‑following for cleanup/rewrite passes

You’ll walk away with

• Prompts for cleanup, improvement, and specialized tasks
• A prompt‑maker template to build new modes quickly
• A simple process to test, tweak, and make the AI write like you or adapt to your preferred ways of working

If you’re ready to speak more, fight less with the blank page, and keep your voice intact while moving faster, this class should help you get there
