Amical

AI Dictation for Recruiters

Push outbound candidate emails, post-screen notes, hiring-manager updates, and JD drafts forward faster between calls. Voice clears the writing slog that keeps you out of the pipeline.

Why typing is slowing recruiters down

Outbound emails sound templated

A real outreach references the candidate's actual work and proposes a specific next step. Typing twenty of those a day means most reach-outs default to the canned sequence, and the response rate quietly drops a few points each quarter.

Post-screen notes never make it into the ATS

Between back-to-back screens you skip writing up the call, then by Friday the nuance is gone. The hiring manager gets three lines instead of three paragraphs and the slate suffers two stages later in the loop.

Hiring-manager updates slip past Friday

A useful weekly update covers pipeline health, top candidates, blockers, and the ask. Typing one of those per requisition across ten reqs is the work that always gets pushed to the weekend or skipped altogether.

A day with Amical

  1. 9 a.m.

    First screen wraps; dictate the post-call note straight into the ATS — strengths, gaps against the rubric, slate fit, the recommended next step. The hiring manager opens it before the next stand-up starts.

  2. Late morning

    Sourcing block: speak twenty personalised outbound emails referencing each candidate's recent work and proposing a specific time. What would have been the canned sequence lands as twenty real reach-outs in forty minutes.

  3. After lunch

    Weekly hiring-manager update for the senior engineering req: dictate pipeline health, the three top candidates, the bottleneck at stage four, and the ask. Sent before the manager's afternoon block instead of Saturday morning.

  4. Evening

    New requisition opens; dictate the JD draft into Google Docs section by section — scope, must-haves, nice-to-haves, growth, comp band. Tomorrow the hiring manager reviews a real draft instead of a blank template.

What Amical does for recruiters

Personalised outbound at scale

A tailored outreach that names the candidate's recent project and proposes a specific time takes ninety seconds by voice instead of seven minutes by keyboard. Across twenty reach-outs a day the time saved compounds into a meaningfully larger top of funnel and a measurable lift in response rate over the quarter.

Post-screen notes that actually get written

The biggest ATS hygiene problem in recruiting is the screen note that never gets logged. Dictating between calls fixes it — speak the rubric assessment in sixty seconds while it is fresh and the candidate record stays accurate without burning the Friday evening you used to spend catching up on the week.

Works in every recruiting tool

Gmail, Outlook, LinkedIn Recruiter and standard InMail, Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, Notion, Slack, Asana — Amical drops transcription into any focused text field at the OS layer. No per-ATS plugin to install, no copy-paste step between tools, no breaking the rhythm of a screen-heavy day on the phone.

What you'd dictate

Post-screen note: strong on systems, gap on management, slate yes.
Outbound to the senior engineer referencing the open-source work shipped.
Hiring-manager update: top three on slate, blocker is the comp band.

This is really an amazing app, and I'm super impressed with how smooth it works, and their amazing support. It's just fast and accurate, and it formats the text depending on what application I'm using. This is really my go-to blathering app, and it makes my day so sweet and easy. Read on AppSumo →

Not sure why nobody's talking about it, but there's a free AI voice input app that's incredibly usable. It's called Amical — I use it daily.

tried amical (free & open source) alternative to whispr flow, aquavoice because they both charged me over $10 and the fact that it lets me run everything locally so nothing leaves my machine is crazyyy🤯

nice comparison. been using amical lately and surprised it's not mentioned more. it's open source, runs locally or with cloud models, and actually formats stuff based on what app you're in. feels way more usable than just whisper or vosk on their own.
I was using VoiceDash, currently I'm using Blip AI, and now I'm testing Amical. So far, Amical is really, really good in recognizing my language and fantastic in recognizing the English language. I'm really impressed in this short period of time of using it. Read on AppSumo →
Amical for voice input is great — runs locally so it's super fast. I was on Aqua Voice but the 0.5s lag between speaking and seeing text was stressful every time. Local model accuracy is slightly lower but well within acceptable.
