Two different jobs, not one.
Wispr Flow is dictation. You speak, and the words appear in whatever you are typing into.
These are not the same tool and Kola does not replace it. Kola has no dictation of its own. What it has is somewhere for the words to go.
| What | Wispr Flow | Kola |
|---|---|---|
| Made for | Getting spoken words into a text field | Remembering the people you meet |
| Reads | Your voice, as you speak | Email, calendar, messengers, recorded calls and your notes |
| You end up with | Text, wherever you were typing | An answer with names, and the record behind it |
| Who it suits | Anyone who would rather talk than type | Anyone whose work runs on who they know |
There is very little overlap. Dictate with Flow, remember with Kola.
Speak a note, find it later
Dictate into a note in Kola. It attaches to the people it mentions, and it is still findable months later.
It records calls, not keystrokes
Kola records and transcribes meetings on your Mac, then files the transcript against the people who were there.
Ask instead of searching
Ask a question in an ordinary sentence and get an answer with names, rather than hunting for the note you dictated.
A note remembers who it is about.
