10 gadgets for Wispr Flow & AI (#10 is RIDIC for Codex)

The best mics & peripherals for GTM Engineers & automation lovers

Hey GTM Engineers,

I’m getting roasted for just starting to use Wispr Flow. Totally deserved.

If you’re a productivitymaxxer or gadget lover - you’re gonna dig these products. These are recommendations from comments in my LinkedIn post about buying the DJI Mini Mic (and potentially a pedal) for Wispr.

There’s everyone from our Head of Sales to Software Engineers to our Head of Studio who love Wispr Flow and use it to build faster (without touching a keyboard!)

What’s all the hype about?

The simple reason Wispr Flow is a $2B company

You can get your thoughts & text on a screen 4X faster than typing.

However, the breakthrough isn’t only speech-to-text itself.

It’s that Flow handles all the annoying work between speaking and producing usable writing:

You press a key and speak naturally in almost any app.
It removes “uh,” repetitions, and abandoned sentences.
It adds punctuation and formatting.
It adapts the result to the app—an email sounds like an email, while Slack sounds like Slack. Check out Wispr’s context-awareness docs.
The cleaned text appears directly where your cursor already is.

You no longer need to formulate perfect prose before opening your mouth. Flow converts messy thinking into acceptable writing.

The whole reason to talk instead of type is to stay inside your own train of thought.

Try the magic of Wispr Flow

The breakthrough on the speach-to-text front?

Teams at Clay are using it to:

Convert thoughts to words
Compose and ship emails faster
Go keyboard free
Use AI faster
Code faster

I didn’t fully appreciate the magic until I started using it.

Some crazy stats:

60B words transcribed
Almost all of the Fortune 500 uses it
10,000+ companies

These are the recommendations to give it superpowers (like voice isolation in the office + being able to whisper even quieter) and peripherals to max out productivity with automations.
