NewInk in HyperOrbs for Windows

Say it. It’s written, and it’s right.

Hold a key and talk, and Ink writes what you meant in whatever app you are in. Select what you typed and tap the key, and every word is checked. One tool for both, and it knows your team.

On Windows now. Mac next, then iPhone, Android and the browser.

Talk the way you think. Read what you meant.

Hold one key in any app and talk. Ink leaves out the ums, follows when you change your mind, and writes it the way you would have typed it on a good day.

In any app and any text box. What you meant lands where your cursor is.

Everything you type, checked before it’s sent.

Select what you wrote in any app and tap Ink's key: every mistake comes back with its fix and why, and one click makes them all. Underlines as you type are next.

Select what you wrote in any app and tap Ink's key: each mistake, its fix and why, fixed in one click. Underlines as you type are next.

Say it once. It fits where it lands.

An email gets a greeting, a chat message does not, and a commit message is a commit message. Choose how formal it is for each kind of app.

Hold fn and say it once…

It already knows your world.

Other tools know English. Ink also knows your workspace: the people, the numbers and the teammates your team works with every day.

Names your team uses

Your teammates and the names in your dictionary, spelled the way they spell them.

Facts checked against your records

A number that disagrees with your own updates, sheets or deck is flagged before anyone else sees it.

Hold fn…

Hand it to a teammate

Say who should take it, and one of your ScaleBot teammates picks it up with the text attached.

The checks that matter, in one pass.

For the pieces that count: originality, sources, how it reads and how it will land, checked together before you hand it in.

Why small teams ship faster

Small teams make fewer decisions by committee, and each decision costs less to reverse. Brooks observed that adding people to a late project makes it later [1], and the same arithmetic of communication applies to early ones.

When five people own a product, every one of them can hold its whole shape in mind [2]. That shared picture is what lets them say no quickly.

When the team grows past what one table can seat…

It takes the notes, too.

Turn it on for a call. It listens on your own computer, so no extra guest joins, and leaves a summary, the decisions and who does what next.

    Questions about Ink

    When can I use Ink?
    Now, on Windows: Ink is in the HyperOrbs desktop app. The Mac version comes next, then iPhone, Android and the browser.
    Does it work in every app?
    Voice works anywhere you can type on your computer, from email and chat to code editors and AI chats. To check something, select it in any app and tap Ink's key. Underlines as you type, and the phones, are coming.
    Do I need a HyperOrbs workspace?
    No. Ink works on its own. With a workspace it also knows your team's names and facts, and can hand work to your ScaleBot teammates.
    Which languages does it understand?
    99. Choose the ones you speak, and each part is written in the language you said it in, never translated.
    Is my voice recorded?
    No. Your speech is turned into text on your own computer, and the sound is never kept or sent. What you say and write is never sold and never used to train AI models.
    What does it cost?
    Ink is part of HyperOrbs. Turning speech into text runs on your computer and costs nothing; the AI that cleans it up and checks it comes out of your plan's monthly AI allowance, the free plan's included.

    Write at the speed you think.

    Ink is in HyperOrbs for Windows today, with your team's names already in it.
