I’ve been thinking about this one for years. I’d written about voice transcription on my German blog more than once, always circling the same frustration: I think faster than I type, I often think in German but need to write in English, and by the time I’ve opened an app and found the right place to put a thought, the thought has changed shape or disappeared entirely.

The tool I wanted was simple to describe and surprisingly difficult to build well. Press one button on my iPhone. Talk. Done. The system figures out the rest.

Every quarter I used to lose an entire afternoon to the same ritual. Dig through emails, download PDFs, open bank statements, match invoices to transactions, sort business from personal, convert USD and EUR to AUD, file everything into folders my tax person understands. It’s the kind of work that makes you question your life choices.

I run a small operation. Invoices arrive by email in three currencies. Receipts come as PDFs, photos of paper, forwarded attachments. Some are from Anthropic in US dollars, some from German clients in euros, some from the local office supply shop in AUD. Each one needs to be read, categorised, and filed in a way that survives an ATO audit.
