It is designed to work anywhere there is a blinking cursor, including browsers, editors, chat apps, documents, email, AI tools, and productivity software. The app supports more than 100 languages and adapts to different accents, with examples including English, Spanish, Chinese, French, Portuguese, German, Italian, Polish, Dutch, Ukrainian, Finnish, and many others.
