The best way to fill a Craft page isn't to type it — it's to say it. With Clavio you summon dictation with a wake word or a quick hotkey, talk through a whole section, and watch clean, punctuated prose land right in the block your cursor is in. Keep it on the natural tone and Clavio lightly tidies what you said — filler gone, sentences shaped — without flattening your voice or disturbing Craft's headings, cards, and styling. Auto-send stays off, so nothing fires away; the words simply settle into the document, ready for you to restyle. A spoken draft becomes a polished Craft doc, and you never touch the keyboard for the prose.
Start writing with a word or a key
Clavio lives in your Mac's menu bar and waits for a signal — say your wake word and it starts listening, or tap your hotkey if you'd rather trigger it by hand. Either way, you click into a Craft block first — a page body, a heading, a bullet, a card — and then just talk. With the wake word there's nothing to hold down: you say it, speak your paragraph, and the text appears where your cursor sits. Pick the hotkey when your hands are already on the keys, and the wake word when they're nowhere near — the same finished text lands in Craft either way.
The natural tone: your draft, gently cleaned up
A Craft document is prose, not a command line, so you don't want your words typed out raw and you don't want them rewritten into someone else's voice. That's exactly what Clavio's natural tone is for: it takes the way you actually spoke — the false starts, the “ums,” the missing commas — and hands back a clean, readable paragraph that still sounds like you. Punctuation and paragraph breaks are added for you, so a two-minute thought arrives as tidy sentences instead of one long run-on. Add your own words to Clavio's dictionary — product names, people, project titles — and they come through spelled right every time, so the draft that lands in Craft is one you can keep, not one you have to repair.
Auto-send off, so your formatting survives
In a chat app you want the text to send itself; in a document you want the opposite. Keep auto-send off for Craft and the dictated text simply settles into the block you're in — no stray return key, no new block punched in where you didn't ask for one, no styling knocked loose. That's what lets you build a page the way Craft is meant to be built: dictate a heading, click into the body and speak the section under it, drop into a bullet and talk through the list. Each block fills with clean text while Craft's cards, toggles, and typography stay exactly as you set them. You're composing a real document by voice, block by block — not dumping a wall of words you'll have to reformat afterward.
One voice from the doc to everywhere it goes
The document is rarely the end of it. When the Craft page is written, you share it — and the same voice carries straight on: dictate the Slack message that links it, the email to the client, the note in your task tracker, the reply in your browser. Clavio remembers a tone per app, so it keeps the natural, lightly polished voice for your Craft prose, then switches to something casual for a chat and crisp for an email — all from one wake word. And because an on-device voiceprint means it only answers to you, a colleague talking nearby never sets it off mid-sentence. Write the doc by voice, then talk your way through everything that follows it.
Recommended Clavio settings for Craft
| Setting | Recommended | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Activation | Wake word or hotkey | Say your wake word to start fully hands-free, or tap a hotkey when your hands are already on the keys — then speak into the block. |
| Polish level | Natural (light) | Cleans up filler and adds punctuation and paragraphs while keeping your own voice — right for document prose, not raw transcription. |
| Auto-send | Off | A document isn't a message. Text settles into the block with no stray return, so Craft's blocks and styling stay intact. |
| Personal dictionary | Add your terms | Keeps product names, people, and project titles spelled right, so the draft lands ready to keep instead of fix. |
| Cursor placement | Click into a block | Clavio pastes into whatever's focused, so text lands in the exact Craft block — heading, body, bullet, or card — you put your cursor in. |
Write beautiful Craft docs by voice
Clavio is an AI dictation app for Mac. It sits in your menu bar and turns what you say into clean, punctuated prose, then drops it into whatever's focused — a Craft block, a Slack message, an email, the browser. Summon it with a wake word for fully hands-free writing or a hotkey when you prefer, keep it on the natural tone so your draft is tidied but still yours, and leave auto-send off so the words settle into the document instead of firing away. A personal dictionary keeps your names and terms intact, and an on-device voiceprint means only your voice sets it off. Free to try: 3,000 words a month, no card, macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon. Pro is £12/month for unlimited.

Common questions
Can I write in Craft fully hands-free?
Yes. Give Clavio a wake word, keep your cursor in a Craft block, and just say the word and start talking — the prose is typed into the document with nothing to press or hold. Prefer a key? A hotkey does the same thing for when your hands are already on the keyboard.
Will it reword my writing or misspell names?
The natural tone tidies your draft — filler trimmed, punctuation and paragraphs added — without turning it into someone else's voice, so what lands still sounds like you. For names and jargon, add them to Clavio's dictionary and they come through spelled right every time.
Does dictating into Craft mess up my formatting?
No — with auto-send off, the text settles into the block your cursor is in without punching a stray return or a new block, so Craft's headings, cards, and styling stay exactly as you set them. You can dictate a page block by block and keep it looking the way Craft is meant to.
Can I use the same voice outside Craft?
Yes — Clavio types into anything that's focused, so the same voice writes your Slack message, your email, and your task-tracker note the moment you leave the Craft page. It remembers a tone per app, so your document stays lightly polished while a chat reply comes out casual.
Craft and macOS already have dictation — why use Clavio?
Craft has no dictation of its own, and the one built into macOS types your words exactly as spoken — every “um,” no punctuation unless you say it, no paragraph breaks. Clavio instead hands back a clean, punctuated draft in your own voice and drops it right into the block, so you keep the writing instead of repairing it.
