Speak naturally. Keep your flow.

Bulbul is voice dictation for the places you already write. Hold a hotkey on desktop or use the floating bubble on Android, speak, and let clean text arrive at your cursor.

What Bulbul can do

Bulbul transcribes with Groq Whisper, then can clean up fillers and punctuation, reshape selected text, remember how you correct it, and apply your own dictionary, snippets, and transforms. The guides in this field manual cover every feature on desktop and Android—plus the points where the two platforms work differently.
