Changelog

• Jun 10, 2026
  description

  Micly transforms ChatGPT's built-in voice-to-text into a fast, focused dictation tool — and now turns any audio or video file into text, too.
  
  QUICK SETUP (2 steps)
  1. Log in to your ChatGPT account (free or paid) at chatgpt.com in Chrome browser
  2. Set the keyboard shortcut to 'Global' in chrome://extensions/shortcuts — this lets you trigger Micly from any app, not just Chrome
  
  HOW IT WORKS
  1. Click the extension icon or press your keyboard shortcut to activate
  2. Speak — or click "Transcribe audio" and pick a file
  3. Text is automatically copied to your clipboard
  4. Paste anywhere — emails, documents, messages, code editors
  
  KEY FEATURES
  - Voice Dictation: Press a shortcut, speak, get text — anywhere on your computer
  - Audio File Transcription (NEW in v1.2.0): Upload an audio or video recording (up to 25 MB / 20 minutes) and Micly pipes it through ChatGPT's Whisper for accurate transcription
  - Quality / Speed Modes: 1x for best accuracy, 1.5x to transcribe long files in less time (~95% of Quality accuracy)
  - Dictation Mode: Clean, distraction-free interface — hides ChatGPT's sidebar, messages, and UI clutter
  - Auto-Copy: Transcribed text is automatically copied to your clipboard
  - Text Accumulation: Multiple recordings stack together — speak in rounds, building up longer text
  - Enter to Copy: After editing your text, press Enter to quickly copy it to clipboard
  - Global Shortcut: Trigger dictation from anywhere on your computer (configurable in chrome://extensions/shortcuts)
  - 99 Languages: Dictate in any language supported by ChatGPT Whisper — Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, and 96 more
  - Chromebook Ready: The professional dictation tool ChromeOS never had — installs natively as a Chrome extension
  
  PRIVACY
  Micly does not collect or transmit any data. Voice and audio file transcription is handled by ChatGPT's built-in dictation (OpenAI Whisper). Files never leave your machine for our servers — they go directly from your browser to your ChatGPT session. All text stays on your device.
  
  PERFECT FOR CHROMEBOOK
  Need higher accuracy for accented speech, noisy environments, or technical terms? Micly brings Whisper-powered voice-to-text to your Chromebook with a simple Chrome extension — plus a multi-round dictation workflow and audio file upload for building up longer text. No sideloading, no workarounds. Just install and speak (or upload).
  
  TIPS
  - Use the keyboard shortcut for quick access from any app
  - Click "Transcribe audio" at the bottom-left to upload a recording — meeting notes, voice memos, podcasts, lecture audio
  - Choose Speed mode to halve transcription time for long files
  - Click the shortcut hint at the bottom to customize your shortcut
  - Switch between Chat Mode and Dictation Mode with the toggle in the bottom-right corner
  - You can manually edit the transcribed text, then press Enter to copy your changes
  - Chrome may show a "Proceed with caution" warning during install — this is normal for all new extensions and will disappear as Micly gains more users.

  Voice dictation & audio transcription for Chromebook & Chrome, via your ChatGPT login. Speak or upload, auto-copy, paste anywhere.
