I lost 40 minutes daily typing prompts. This AI voice tool made me 4x faster.

Jul 21, 2025

I used to lose 40 minutes every day just typing prompts into ChatGPT.

Forty minutes!

It felt ridiculous. But as someone building automated systems for a living, I knew every second wasted on manual tasks was a second stolen from innovation.

  • Then I started looking at the numbers. It hit me:
  • The average person types at 40 words per minute.

The average person speaks at 150 words per minute.

That’s a ±4x productivity gap staring you in the face. A gap most Corporate Innovators are completely ignoring.

I know what you’re thinking:

“Okay, Ritesh, but voice dictation is clunky. It’s full of ‘ums’ and ‘ahs’ and just…doesn’t work well.”

I was right there with you. I tried the built-in tools — Siri, Google Voice — and the results were unusable. They actually slowed me down because I was constantly editing.

How I improved my prompting 4x

That’s when I found VoiceInk (Mac). And more recently, I’ve been incredibly impressed with Wispr Flow (Windows, Mac, Mobile).

Unlike average dictation software, both tools leverage AI to clean your speech in real-time, removing filler words and repetitions. However Wispr Flow takes it a step further. It’s designed to work across every application — from email and documents to code editors — and boasts impressive accuracy and speed. Users are reporting 4x faster response times compared to typing.

Play this.

And here’s the kicker: when you speak, you think differently. You articulate more fully, providing richer context to the AI. This leads to dramatically better outputs — more relevant, more insightful, and more actionable.

I’ve been using it for a month, and the results are undeniable:

  • 3–4x faster prompt creation.
  • Over 12 hours reclaimed. That’s an extra day of focused work every month.
  • Significantly improved AI responses thanks to the added context.

Now, I know some of you are thinking about the practicalities. “What if I work in an open office?” Simple. Use a headset with a microphone. It isolates your voice and ensures clean transcriptions, even in noisy environments.

This is the essence of Level 1 Automation — the foundation of my 5-Level Framework. It’s about identifying those small, repetitive tasks that drain your time and using simple tools to eliminate them.

But here’s where most companies get stuck. They treat Level 1 as the finish line. They find a tool, save a few minutes, and declare victory.

They miss the bigger picture.

The true power of AI isn’t in isolated tools; it’s in systematic automation. It’s about building a cohesive strategy that moves you through all 5 Levels:

  • Level 1 (Assess): Identify and automate those quick wins.
  • Level 2 (Automate Processes): Connect those wins into streamlined workflows.
  • Level 3 (Scale Departments): Equip your teams with AI-powered systems like Animatic and VisionCraft.
  • Level 4 (Integrate Systems): Break down silos and create seamless data flow.
  • Level 5 (Achieve Autonomy): Build a self-learning, predictive AI engine.

Here’s the question I want you to ask yourself: What’s one task in your daily workflow that feels needlessly manual? What’s one area where you’re wasting precious time on repetitive effort?

I guarantee there’s an automation waiting to be unlocked.
