No Native Dictation in Confluence

Confluence’s editor is flexible, yet it offers no mic button and no built-in speech to text. If you have been juggling external recorders and paste workflows, you know how disruptive that is.

Use VibeTyper to Dictate and Rewrite

VibeTyper enables voice typing anywhere your cursor can type. Press and hold your configured shortcut to speak and release to insert the text. You can also select any text in a page and ask VibeTyper to rewrite it - for example “make this more concise” or “change to a step-by-step list”. If you copy content to your clipboard, you can ask VibeTyper to generate a reply or draft based on your spoken instruction.

Setup and Workflow

Install VibeTyper from vibetyper.com on Windows or Linux.
Open a page or comment in Confluence and place your cursor in the editor.
Hold your VibeTyper shortcut, speak in full sentences, then release - no need to say punctuation.
Use headings and bullet lists as you like; VibeTyper handles punctuation without voice commands.
Select rough passages and tell VibeTyper to rewrite for clarity or tone.

Formatting Tips

Keep paragraphs short and scannable. Use voice to add headings and lists
For tables or code blocks, dictate the content first, then format with the editor
Review quickly and apply a final rewrite if you want a different tone
