Turn spoken notes into an email reply
Build your first workflow: an Email Reply workflow that runs whenever you dictate in Mail and turns rough spoken notes into a finished reply.
Set it up
Open Settings > Workflows and click New Workflow.
Choose the Email Reply template.
Under Try It Out, click Insert Example or type a sample dictation, then click Run Test. Nothing is saved or inserted.
Under Trigger, choose Automatic, then App. Select Mail and click Done.
Click Save Workflow. Open a reply in Mail and say what you want to answer. TypeWhisper inserts the finished email.
Good to know
- Email Reply needs a language model. In the video, Parakeet transcribes on the Mac and Groq writes the reply in the cloud. With Apple Intelligence (macOS 26) or one of the Local LLM add-ons, the text stays on your Mac.
- For other results, start from another template: Cleaned Text, Translation, Meeting Notes, Checklist, JSON, Summary, Dictation Only, or Custom Workflow. Instead of in an app, a workflow can also run on a website, with its own hotkey, always, or from the Workflow Palette.
