Replacements

Learn how to use Replacements in Superwhisper to fix spelling, expand snippets, or inject links. This feature ensures that your most frequent corrections and expansions are handled efficiently and consistently.

Overview

Superwhisper’s replacements operate at the post-transcription stage of processing. Once your voice input is transcribed into text, any replacements you’ve configured will be automatically applied. This step is performed programmatically and does not rely on AI interpretation, ensuring that replacements happen exactly as you define them.

Replacements match words regardless of capitalization. The matching system is case-insensitive, so “todo” will match “ToDo”, “TODO”, or “Todo”. The replaced output will appear in the exact case you have specified for the replacement.

When to Use

Replacements are the recommended solution for correcting persistent errors or expanding frequently used phrases. Because this feature operates independently of AI, the results are consistent and immediate, regardless of how the transcription model performs.

Creating Replacements

1. Create

   Select the “Create” button.

2. Define the Original Text

   Enter the word or phrase you want the system to look for. Remember, matching is case-insensitive.

3. Set the Replacement

   Specify the corrected spelling, expanded text, link, or snippet you wish to insert.

4. Save

   Select the “Create & draft new” option. Your replacement will take effect immediately in all future transcriptions.

If you notice that certain words are consistently mis-transcribed, you can add multiple replacements to address every variation and point them all to the correct result.
