Boltype is an AI-powered keyboard that turns your voice into polished, ready-to-send text — in any app, any conversation. Unlike basic dictation, Boltype understands your intent. It removes filler words, fixes sentence flow, and adapts the tone to match your context. What comes out isn't a raw transcript — it's text you can actually use. Switch to Command Mode to do more: select text and say "translate to English," copy a message and say "make this more formal," or just say "write me an apology email" — Boltype handles it instantly. Built-in hot word recognition means professional terms, brand names, and technical jargon get transcribed accurately, every time. Stop typing. Just say it.
