Hey Product Hunt
We're the team behind Rutta, and we're launching in a few hours.
Here's the itch we couldn't stop scratching: phone typing tops out around 40 WPM, but most people speak 3x faster. Yet voice input still feels clunky raw transcripts full of "ums," no punctuation, and you have to jump between apps to clean it up.
So we built Rutta, a voice-first iOS keyboard. You speak, it transcribes, rewrites your rough thoughts into clean text, and drops the polished result right back into whatever app you were typing in. No app switching. It also keeps your tone (it's not trying to make you sound like a robot), learns your personal vocabulary, and importantly deletes your original audio after processing and never trains on it.
How does it handle context when I switch between casual texting and drafting a longer email without re-explaining tone each time?

Great question. Rutta is designed for exactly these writing moments: messages, email drafts, notes, and longer thoughts where typing gets in the way.
On iOS, keyboards don’t get silent access to the full private conversation or email thread, and we don’t try to bypass that. So Rutta focuses on what it can do reliably today: turn what you say into clean, natural, ready-to-send text, and use the current input field when it’s available.
For longer writing, the best workflow today is to speak in sections and let Rutta turn each thought into a polished block. We’re also thinking a lot about how to make tone and context more persistent in a user-controlled, privacy-safe way.
How well does the keyboard handle longer dictation sessions for drafting full documents, or is it really tuned more for quick messages and short replies?

It works for both, but the sweet spot is different from a traditional document editor.
For quick messages, Rutta helps you reply much faster. For longer writing, it works best as a “speak in sections” workflow: dictate a thought, let Rutta turn it into a clean paragraph or structured block, then continue. That works well for notes, email drafts, longer replies, and rough document sections.
So we don’t see Rutta as only a short-reply keyboard. We see it as a faster way to turn spoken thoughts into usable writing on mobile.
