Add Replacements

You can add replacements when using SpeechLive's real-time speech recognition. This allows you to define commands for content you frequently reuse. For example the address of your company, standardized letter headers, your signature, contact details, disclaimers or standard responses.

[Note]Note

  • Replacements are synchronized between the different applications, so you can also use them in the Mobile App or Desktop App.

  • You can only add replacement texts with up to 1024 characters.

  • Replacements are only used for real-time speech recognition, not for offline/backend speech recognition (Send to speech recognition function).

  • New replacements are only added for the current speech recognition language.
