Voice recording to desired text format (voice to e-mail, to note, to letter, etc)
in progress

It would be great if we could upload a voice recording, or make a voice recording, and say what document type we want out of it (e-mail, note, formal letter, etc), then Merlin would take the recording and give us that output.
E.g., we ask Merlin to make an e-mail out of a recording. We record a 5 minute voice note. It wouldn't just transcribe it, but it would rewrite it in a clearer way.
Like Letterly - https://letterly.app/

Hi Guy, thanks for the suggestion.
If you’re talking from a PC/Mac perspective, do you think dictation support (native to MacOS or Windows) would help? Voice on Extension seems like too much effort for trivial gain in quality of output, when compared to the fact that Microsoft and Apple have nailed voice-to-text transcription.
Similarly, on mobile, almost all default keyboards have dictation support.
Is there something you’d like Merlin to accomplish that dictation can’t?

Merlin This is not about dictation.
This is about taking a long voice message and turning it in to something condensed or clearer.
E.g., you make a 2 minute recording about wanting to e-mail someone about a certain topic. You then talk about the topic for 2 minutes. Then Merlin would take that recording and condense it in to a short e-mail.
E.g., you would say, "I need to write an e-mail to James about this project, and how it has stalled, and then this thing happened and this other thing... oh, and he mentioned how XYZ and ABC... oh, and on Saturday we have this event I want to talk to him about..." etc etc etc. Then it would turn that in to a clear and concise e-mail (if that is what you asked), or a long, bullet-point e-mail (if that is what you asked), etc.
I would have a look at Letterly - https://letterly.app/ .

endu I am talking Mobile and Desktop. I hardly work from mobile. But it would be useful for both.
I don't use an Apple device, so can't commend on Apple.
