Contextli
Context-aware voice dictation that formats speech for the app you are writing in
Contextli runs as a desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux, with iPhone and Android support. It works at the operating-system level, so no per-app plugin or browser extension is needed — you pick a context from the Context Bar or a dedicated hotkey, speak, and the text is pasted where your cursor is. The tool does not auto-detect which app is focused; the user chooses the context. Dictations are saved as notes that can be searched and read by AI assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT or Perplexity via a connector.
