Fictate

You may have tried dictation before. Most fiction authors have, and most have given up on it. The transcript came back a mess. It mangled your character names. It had no idea what to do with dialogue. You spent longer cleaning up than you would have spent typing.

Enter: FICTATE

IT UNDERSTANDS HOW YOU WRITE AS A FICTION AUTHOR

Rather than fidgeting with an app built for business people and meeting notes, you can just dictate your fictional world and see it come to life accurately.

TEACH FICTATE™ YOUR WORDS

Add your characters, your places, your invented spellings, one time by pasting in a chapter or your entire manuscript and let Fictate learn your unique words. Add a new word right inside your transcript and it populates in your dictionary. Your existing transcript automatically updates to match.

THE CLEANUP TOOL

Turns raw dictation into readable prose. Punctuation, paragraph breaks, verbal stumbles. It does NOT rewrite your sentences into what a machine thinks you meant. Your writing voice stays yours. It just tidies up any errors.

ONE APP INSTEAD OF FIVE

Recording, transcription, cleanup, word count, and a session timer in one place. Easily copy and paste your words into your current Work-in-Progress or…dictate directly into your writing software on mobile or computer. Advanced, but powerful.

WRITE WHERE YOU ALREADY ARE

Record with no signal at all. Everything syncs when you are back online. Authors have turned daily walks and watching the kids play in the backyard into written words.

SEE WHAT YOU ACTUALLY PRODUCED

A daily word count chart. Ten minutes add up faster than most authors expect, and watching that happen turns out to be its own motivation.

GET YOUR WORDS INTO YOUR MANUSCRIPT

One tap to email a transcript to yourself, or copy it straight into Scrivener, Word, or Google Docs on your phone or computer. Phone, browser, and computer, all on the same account.

WHO FICTATE IS FOR

Novelists, short story writers — anyone drafting fiction. Some authors dictate because it’s faster than typing. Some dictate because typing hurts, or is simply no longer possible. Fictate is designed to help you build a sustainable author career.

YOUR WORDS STAY YOURS

Your writing is never used to train AI models. We do not read your work. You hold every right to everything you dictate.
