Workshops move fast, and typing on a sticky slows the whole room. Voice input keeps ideas landing on the board while the conversation is still hot.
Start voice input
On Mac press the Fn key twice inside the target field.
On Windows press Windows plus H to open voice typing.
On Chromebook enable dictation in Accessibility settings.
Double click a sticky or text block first so the caret is inside it.
Stickies vs comments
Stickies hold one idea, so keep them to a short line. Comments carry the back and forth, so speak a full sentence and edit after.
Draft in Zahvox for public copy
For anything shared with clients or leadership as a workshop recap, dictate the raw thought in Zahvox, tighten the wording, then paste it back. That extra pass keeps the tone steady and removes filler.
Small habits that keep it readable
Say punctuation out loud, including commas and periods.
Keep one thought per sentence so cleanup is fast.
Do a short review pass at the end of every session.
Save common phrases in a snippet tool so voice input can call them.
Keep one small ritual around the mic
A little ritual around dictate sticky notes and comments in figjam is what turns a tool into a habit. Sit in the same chair, open the same tab, take one breath, then start. It sounds silly and it is the thing that separates people who dictate weekly from people who dictated once. The ritual is not the point — it is the trigger that gets your brain into a "speak the draft" mode instead of a "stare at the cursor" mode.
Where Zahvox fits after the raw capture
Zahvox is the careful second pass that sits after the raw capture. The browser, the OS, or the app you used for dictate sticky notes and comments in figjam gave you words on a page. Zahvox at /tool is where you paste those words, tighten the wording, fix the shape of the sentences, and copy the result back into wherever it needs to live. Raw capture anywhere, careful edit in Zahvox — that is the whole loop, and it stays the same whether the source was a laptop, a phone, or a meeting transcript.
