Say Goodbye to Email Headaches: Boost Efficiency with Voice Input

Writing emails can be a real pain, especially in a corporate setting. You often see Reddit threads where people spend an hour crafting a single work email, meticulously reviewing each paragraph and rereading the entire message to ensure correct grammar, a professional tone, and accurate conveyance of the intended meaning.

And it's not just Reddit. Social media is full of complaints from Millennials and Gen Z about spending their entire day writing emails, or taking a whole day to write just one. Many people are finding they're not alone in this struggle.

Some suggest group or team calls for lengthy emails or tasks. While this can be effective, it's not always easy to get everyone on the same call, especially with teams spanning different time zones or work schedules. Besides, email remains a formal and efficient way to keep others informed about your tasks or to collaborate.

Voice Input: Solving the Efficiency Problem of Long Emails

So, what's the solution for those long emails? Voice input. As the name suggests, voice input software, like HeyRaven, instantly converts your speech into text as smoothly as if you were talking to someone.

Imagine you need to send multiple tasks to your team members, ensuring they are written correctly while also conveying all the necessary information. This could take you 40 minutes, or even an hour, to prepare a draft. But with voice input, you might only need 10 or 15 minutes, because you're essentially having a meeting or conversation.

Why is Voice Input More Efficient?

  • Your brain is closer to your mouth than your hand when speaking.
  • Sometimes, typing manually can cause you to lose the original meaning you wanted to express. Speaking is the most natural way to convey all the context you want to include in your email.

Especially for long emails, you might need to edit the draft multiple times, perhaps four or five. Therefore, using voice input can help you prepare long emails faster and more efficiently. After all, we don't just work to send emails; we work to express our meaning and communicate with others.

Time is Money: Let HeyRaven Save You Time

The way we prepare emails is a unilateral effort on our part; it's like unpaid work time. The real work only begins when we send the email and it lands in someone else's inbox. So, why not use HeyRaven voice input to improve the efficiency of preparing email drafts and save yourself time?

When you save time, you have more time to do other work, and you can connect with clients or colleagues faster. You can complete your work more quickly and efficiently, without wasting hours sitting there, preparing email drafts.

Most importantly, your boss will never see the hours you spend preparing emails. They'll only see the emails you send.

HeyRaven: Easy to Use, Anytime, Anywhere

HeyRaven currently supports iPhone iOS and Mac. This means you can use it seamlessly on your phone and computer, and it will support more devices in the future.
