Most helpful
Jordan Kim, a freelance frontend dev, needed a privacy-friendly way to dictate React snippets into VSCode. Spoke's real-time insertion at the cursor is the Aha moment - code appears exactly where I'm typing. On-device transcription keeps client work offline, and 25 languages help manage multilingual comments. History search is a lifesaver for reusing notes. The pebble: JSX angle brackets can get garbled and there's occasional lag when the IDE is busy.

Olivia Brown
Offline translation and summarization boost NGO grant writing
What I liked
What could be better
Sophie Alvarez, a bilingual grant writer at a small NGO, relies on Spoke to transcribe meetings and translate notes between English and Spanish. The on-device transcription keeps donor data private, and the AI Skills translate and summarize offline—huge time-saver for proposals. History search helps locate quotes fast. Setup friction: enabling AI features requires API keys, and NGO-specific terms can still trip the translator.
