👋 Hey everyone,

By understanding the context of the page, voice feels magical:

  • Alter understands what you're referring to, even with partial commands or strong accents (oui, even our French accent works!)

  • Alter intelligently distinguishes between similar-sounding words

  • Alter masters acronyms and technical terms, from IT jargon to RapGenius' slang.

⚡️ Time-Saving Workflows:

  • Just say "correct this" or "improve that" - it's that simple

  • Use natural pronouns (him/her/them) instead of repeating full names

  • Makes writing emails effortless, especially with complex names

Excited to get your feedback on this new feature!
