Talk best practices: tips for better voice results

Use cases and tips to get better results from Talk, Superlist's AI voice assistant.

Example use cases

Here are some ideas on how to use Talk to be more productive:

  • Quickly capture tasks on the go.

  • Plan your week: Open Talk and offload all your tasks for the week, along with the dates when you plan to work on them.

  • Write messages without typing: Open Talk, ask to create a task to message XYZ, and then dictate the message. Once you are done, you’ll find the task with the message in your Superlist.

  • Capture quick ideas: Open a list, start Talk, and just dictate your ideas. Talk will create a document with all your ideas. You can even ask it to summarize or structure your input, just like ChatGPT.

Six Strategies for Getting Better Results

  1. Know what you want: If you use Talk to figure out what you want to do, it might not match your expectations. But if you already know what you want and use Talk as a way to brain dump into your Superlist, it will perform better.

  2. Talk like you’re typing: Speak in a structured way as if you’re typing into Superlist, rather than loosely speaking and expecting the model to figure it out.

  3. Maintain sequential flow: Start with topic A, move to B, and then C. Avoid jumping back and forth between topics.

  4. Single-purpose sessions: While task-enriching works, it’s better to keep each session focused. If you need a task with lots of detail, use a single session just for that task.

  5. Be specific: If you want everything added as a single task, say so. If you want subtasks, specify that too. The more instructions you give, the better it will match what you imagined.

  6. Speak clearly: Just like a phone call, clear speech and diction will ensure Talk captures your words accurately.
