Getting started

Welcome to fluesta! This page walks you through the fastest path from the waitlist to your first dictation.

Prerequisites

• A macOS or Windows device (desktop app)
• A fluesta beta account (via the waitlist)
• A microphone (built-in or external)

Start in 3 steps

1. Install the app — Download the desktop app and sign in with your beta account.
2. Know your hotkey — On macOS, the default is the Fn/Globe key. On Windows, it’s Ctrl + Win. Change it anytime under Settings → General.
3. Dictate — Open any app, hold the hotkey, speak, and fluesta inserts the corrected text automatically.

Pro tip

Start with short sentences. Correction and glossary improve results — the more you dictate, the more consistent proper names and domain terms become.

Next steps

• Customize hotkey — use your own shortcut instead of the default
• Windows download and SmartScreen — installer and Windows warnings
• Set up glossary — domain terms for better recognition
• How fluesta works — from microphone to finished text

Beta notice

Some features are still limited during private beta. If something doesn’t work as expected, let us know — we’re improving fluesta continuously.
