# Voice

Speak instead of typing, in any field that has the cursor. Everything is adjusted in **Ajustes ›
Assistentes › Voz** (Settings › Assistants › Voice): turning voice input on, choosing who transcribes,
and adjusting recording.

## How to turn it on

1. Open **Ajustes › Assistentes › Voz** (Settings › Assistants › Voice).
2. Under **Voz** (Voice), turn on **Escrever por voz** (Write by voice).
3. Under **Como a tecla funciona** (How the key works), choose **Apertar uma vez** (Press once —
   starts and stops with the shortcut) or **Segurar** (Hold — records only while the key is down).

The default shortcut is **Ctrl+E** (**Cmd+E** on macOS), and it can be changed on the same screen,
under **Atalho de voz** (Voice shortcut). The first time, the app asks for microphone access:
without it, voice input stays off.

## Elyra Voice

The **Elyra Voice** block is cloud transcription included in your license, with nothing to download.
When you choose it for the first time, the app warns that the audio will be sent to Elyra and shows
the period usage (for example, how many minutes of the quota are already used).

## On this computer

The models on this computer work without internet after the download, and the audio never leaves
your computer:

| Model | What it offers |
|---|---|
| **Nemotron Speech** (NVIDIA) | Writes as you speak, in 35 languages with automatic detection (~475 MB) |
| **Parakeet TDT v3** | High accuracy in 25 European languages (~180 MB) |
| **Whisper Tiny** | Light and fast, in over 90 languages (~116 MB) |
| **Cohere Transcribe** | The most accurate of the local ones, in 14 languages; asks for more memory (macOS only) |
| **Apple Speech** | System-local transcription (macOS only) |

## With your key or server

For those who already have an OpenAI account or their own transcription server:

- **GPT Transcribe**: uses your OpenAI key; the audio goes straight to OpenAI.
- **Custom model**: a server compatible with the OpenAI transcription API, configured by you.

![The On this computer and With your key or server blocks, with the voice model list](/docs/capturas/voz/voz-modelos.webp)

**Your key is a secret.** It is kept by the app, it does not appear on screen after being saved, and
it never appears in an example in this documentation.

## Recording

The **Gravação** (Recording) block adjusts how the audio reaches the model:

- **Idioma da fala** (Speech language): detect automatically or a fixed language. Some models do not
  detect the language on their own: with them, automatic follows the system language.
- **Microfone** (Microphone): the system default or a specific microphone.
- **Pausar música ao gravar** (Pause music while recording): pauses Music and Spotify on the Mac,
  and resumes only the playback Elyra paused.
- **Atalho de voz** (Voice shortcut): the keys that start and stop recording, or the side mouse
  button.
- **Usar atalho com o Elyra em segundo plano** (Use the shortcut with Elyra in the background)
  (macOS only): the text stays inside Elyra — nothing is pasted into other apps. This shortcut has
  its own default (**Cmd+Shift+Space**) and can be changed on the screen.

If the connection drops in the middle of a cloud recording, the app holds up to 60 seconds of
pending audio while it is open. In the terminal, text that could not be delivered stays in the
preview for copying.

## The microphone button

With voice input on, the top bar gains a **microphone button**, next to Agents. It starts and stops
recording with no shortcut: one click to speak, another to stop.

## The text goes where the cursor is

The text goes **where the cursor is**, in real time, with no need to finish to see the result: with
the models on this computer, each sentence lands on a pause in speech; in the cloud, long speech
delivers passages during the recording. If you switch fields in the middle of a recording, the rest
goes to the new field. In the terminal, the text enters the focused pane (line breaks become
spaces: nothing is sent until you press Enter). When there was no field at all, the text stays in
the preview and the card offers **Copiar texto** (Copy text).

## The voice card

While recording, a card shows the app is listening. It can be dragged anywhere on screen and
remembers its position. **Finalizar** (Finish) ends the recording, and the card keeps **Gravação finalizada** (Recording finished), the **Gravar de novo** (Record again)
button and the X to close.
