Lausu on eestikeelne kõne tekstiks rakendus iPhone'ile. See kasutab TalTechis välja töötatud eesti keele kõnemudelit, et muuta kõne kiirelt ja privaatselt tekstiks. Lausu võimaldab sul kirjutamise asemel rääkida. Räägi eesti keeles ja tekst ilmub sinna, kus parajasti kirjutad - sõnumitesse, e-kirjadesse, märkmetesse, otsingusse või mõnda muusse rakendusse. Kõnetuvastus toimub otse sinu telefonis. Sinu häält ei saadeta pilve ega serverisse ning kontot pole vaja. Lausu töötab ka ilma internetita, isegi lennurežiimis. KUIDAS SEE TÖÖTAB 1. Lisa Lausu oma klaviatuuride hulka ja anna rakenduses mikrofoni luba. Seda tuleb teha ainult üks kord. 2. Ava ükskõik milline rakendus, vali Lausu klaviatuur, vajuta dikteerimisnuppu ja räägi. 3. Vajuta "Stop" ning tekst ilmub sinna, kus parajasti kirjutasid. MIKS LAUSU - Loodud eesti keele jaoks. - Saab hästi hakkama täpitähtede, käänete ja nimedega. - Toetab ka inglise keelt. - Keele vahetamine käib ühe puudutusega. - Privaatne vaikimisi. - Sinu hääl ei lahku kunagi telefonist. Helisalvestisi ei säilitata ning puudub analüütika ja kasutajate jälgimine. - Töötab ka ilma internetita. - Dikteeri lennukis, praamil, suvilas või kõikjal, kus levi puudub. - Täisväärtuslik klaviatuur. - Pikalt vajutades saad kasutada täpitähti, juhtida kursorit tühikuklahvilt ning kopeerida varasemaid dikteerimisi. - Valikuline taustamikrofon. Soovi korral saad mikrofoni valmis hoida, et dikteerimine algaks igas rakenduses kohe. Vaikimisi on see välja lülitatud ning oranž märgutuli näitab alati, kui mikrofon on aktiivne. TASUTA, SIIS ÜKS OST Iga kuu saad tasuta dikteerida kuni 1000 sõna. Kui sellest jääb väheks, saad piiramatu kasutuse avada ühe ostuga. Ei mingit tellimust ega kuutasu. HEA TEADA - Esimesel käivitamisel valmistab Lausu kõnemudeli sinu telefonis ette. See võtab umbes viis minutit ning seda tuleb teha ainult üks kord. - Klaviatuur küsib täielikku juurdepääsu ainult selleks, et rakendus ja klaviatuur saaksid sinu telefonis omavahel suhelda. - Vajalik on iPhone operatsioonisüsteemiga iOS 18 või uuem. Lausu is an Estonian dictation keyboard. Speak naturally and your words appear as text in any app: messages, email, notes, search. Everything happens on your iPhone. Your voice is transcribed by a speech model running directly on the device, built on TalTech's open Estonian speech research. Nothing is sent anywhere: no cloud, no servers, no account. Dictation works even in airplane mode. HOW IT WORKS 1. Add Lausu as a keyboard and grant microphone access in the app (one-time setup). 2. In any app, switch to the Lausu keyboard, press the dictate button, and talk. 3. Tap stop and the text appears right where your cursor is. WHY LAUSU - Accurate Estonian: a state-of-the-art speech model tuned for real, natural Estonian. - English too: switch between Estonian and English dictation with one tap. - Private by design: your voice never leaves the device. Recordings are deleted right after transcription. No analytics, no tracking, no data collection. - Works offline: on a plane, on a ferry, at a summer house with no signal. - Full keyboard: complete typing keyboard with long-press accents, a cursor trackpad on the spacebar, and dictation history you can copy from. - Background mic (optional): keep the microphone armed so dictation starts instantly in any app. Off by default, and the orange indicator always shows when it is on. FREE, THEN ONE PURCHASE Dictate up to 1000 words every month for free, forever. A single purchase unlocks unlimited dictation. No subscription. GOOD TO KNOW - On first launch, Lausu prepares the speech model on your device. This one-time step takes about five minutes. - The keyboard asks for Full Access only so the keyboard and the app can communicate on your device. The app contains no networking code at all. - Requires an iPhone with iOS 18 or later. UUS: AI ümbersõnastus (valikuline, vaikimisi väljas) laseb dikteeritud teksti sinu enda võtmega valitud AI-l ümber sõnastada.
