Voice Commands

How Voice Commands Work

Voice commands are processed by LLaMA as part of the text cleanup step. You don’t need to pause or use a special trigger word — just speak them naturally within your dictation and they’ll be interpreted as actions rather than literal text.

For example, saying “Send the report to Sarah new paragraph Let me know if you have questions period” produces:

Send the report to Sarah.

Let me know if you have questions.

”new paragraph”Insert a double line break
”go back”Delete the last word

Tips for Best Results

  • Speak naturally. LLaMA understands context, so you don’t need to be robotic.
  • Combine commands with dictation. “Meeting at 3pm comma conference room B period” works as expected.
  • Punctuation is also automatic. Even without explicit commands, LLaMA adds punctuation based on your speech patterns. The commands above give you manual control when needed.
