Ottex Integration

AVELIN API is compatible with Ottex — Voice dictation shortcuts (WisprFlow + Raycast style) with BYOK. Auto-formats dictated emails, Slack messages, and prompts.

Ottex is a voice dictation tool in the style of WisprFlow and Raycast, but with a critical difference: Bring Your Own Key (BYOK). Its killer feature is context-aware auto-formatting — it detects which app is active and formats your dictated speech accordingly. Dictate while Mail is focused and it writes a properly formatted email; switch to Slack and it produces a casual message; open a code editor and it generates clean prose or comments. No manual reformatting needed.

Built for power users, writers, and developers who want fast voice input without vendor lock-in, Ottex pairs perfectly with AVELIN's low-latency models for real-time transcription and intelligent formatting.

Why AVELIN + Ottex? Leverage AVELIN's frontier models with 1M-token context windows, automatic failover, and competitive pricing for automation workflows.
