How Voice Dictation Works
- Open a work order and tap the microphone icon in the notes or description field
- Speak naturally — Vynta transcribes your words in real time
- Review the transcription and edit if needed
- Save the note
Where You Can Dictate
- Work order descriptions — describe the job, the issue, and the fix
- Parts notes — explain why a part was used
- Completion notes — summarise what was done
- Incident reports — describe safety incidents verbally
- Risk assessments — dictate hazard observations
Language Support
Voice dictation supports English with field service terminology. The transcription engine is tuned for:- Technical vocabulary (electrical, HVAC, plumbing terms)
- South African English accent patterns
- Noisy environments (background noise filtering)
Voice dictation works best in relatively quiet environments. In very noisy sites, consider recording a voice memo and transcribing it later when you’re back in the van.
Tips for Better Transcriptions
- Speak clearly and at a normal pace
- Use full sentences rather than fragments
- Pause briefly between different topics
- Review the transcription before saving — AI isn’t perfect
