Before and after

Reading takeaway

Rough speech

this is basically saying the interface matters because people don't adopt tools that make them switch context

Voice Cursor output

Why it works

Voice is faster when the app already has your context.

Dictate why a highlight matters, not just what it says.

Add connections to existing projects or notes while reading.

Use Voice Cursor when the insight is clearer spoken than typed.

Highlights alone

They preserve the source but not always your thinking.

Voice Cursor

Captures your interpretation while the reading context is still active.
