Voice to Text for Sales Development Reps
Your job is building relationships and booking meetings, not typing the same phrases over and over. Blurt lets you speak your cold emails, CRM notes, and LinkedIn messages while your hands stay free to research your next prospect. Hold a button, say what you want to write, release. Text appears wherever your cursor is — in Salesforce, HubSpot, Gmail, LinkedIn, anywhere. No templates. No copy-paste. Just your authentic voice, typed out instantly.
The Typing Problem
Writing personalized cold emails all day destroys your wrists
You send 80+ emails daily, and each one needs personalization to actually land. You've read their LinkedIn, you know what to say, but typing it out takes forever. By 3pm your fingers ache and your emails get shorter and lazier. The prospect can tell the difference between your morning emails and your afternoon ones. Your reply rates prove it.
CRM notes that never get written
You just had a great discovery call. You know exactly what the prospect said about their pain points, timeline, and budget. But logging it all in Salesforce means 10 minutes of typing you don't have before your next call. So you jot down three words and move on. A week later, you're back in that account and have no idea what you discussed. Your AE is frustrated. The deal slips.
LinkedIn outreach that sounds like everyone else's
You need to personalize 50 connection requests today. You have 300 characters to stand out from the dozen other SDRs hitting the same prospect. But typing unique messages for each person is exhausting, so you default to your template. It sounds like a template. They can tell. Your acceptance rate hovers at 15% while the SDR who personalizes everything hits 45%.
Follow-up sequences that lose the personal touch
Touch one was great. You mentioned their recent product launch. Touch two referenced their podcast appearance. But by touch four, you're running out of time and energy. You send the generic 'just circling back' email you swore you'd never send. The prospect who was warming up goes cold. All because personalization at scale is physically exhausting.
Research time eaten by typing time
You spend 5 minutes researching a prospect — their company, their role, their recent activity. You know exactly what angle to use. Then you spend 5 more minutes typing out what you could have said in 30 seconds. Half your day is spent typing instead of finding new accounts. Your activity numbers suffer because writing takes as long as prospecting.

Real Scenarios
Personalizing cold emails in seconds
You just found a VP of Sales who mentioned struggling with rep ramp time on a podcast. Instead of typing out your personalized opener, hold the button and say 'Hey Sarah, caught your episode on the Sales Hacker podcast where you mentioned it takes 6 months to ramp new reps. We help companies like Gong and Clari cut that to 90 days. Worth a 15-minute call?' Done in 8 seconds. On to the next prospect.
Logging CRM notes between back-to-back calls
Your discovery call just ended and the next one starts in 2 minutes. Open Salesforce, hold the button, and brain-dump everything: 'Decision maker confirmed, budget approved for Q2, current solution is homegrown and breaking, next steps are security review and technical demo with their engineering lead Mike.' Complete notes logged in 15 seconds. Your AE has everything they need. Next call starts on time.
Crafting LinkedIn connection requests that get accepted
You're connecting with a Director who just posted about their expansion into EMEA. Hold button, say 'Hey James, saw your post about the EMEA expansion. Congrats. We helped Datadog's SDR team break into Europe last year — happy to share what worked if useful.' Personal, relevant, 280 characters. Accept rate doubles when every message sounds human.
Writing follow-up emails that reference previous conversations
Touch three on an account that went quiet. You remember they mentioned a board meeting in January. Instead of typing, speak: 'Hi Tom, you mentioned the board was meeting in January to discuss vendor consolidation. Curious if that came up and whether it makes sense to reconnect. Either way, hope the quarter is starting strong.' Personalized follow-up that shows you listened. Takes 10 seconds to create.
Responding to inbound leads while researching
A lead just filled out a demo request. You're Googling their company to understand their use case. Eyes on the research, hold button, dictate: 'Thanks for reaching out, Amanda. Took a look at Brightflow and love what you're building in the fintech space. Would Thursday at 2pm work for a quick call to see if we can help?' Response sent while you're still learning about them. Speed to lead under 5 minutes.
Adding context to Outreach or Salesloft sequences
You're enrolling a batch of prospects into a sequence but want to add personalized snippets for each. Instead of typing custom variables, hold and speak: 'Noticed you just opened a new office in Austin. Our Dallas team would love to connect.' Paste into the personalization field. Repeat for the next prospect. Batch personalization without batch fatigue.
Quick Slack updates to your AE or manager
Your AE asks for an update on the Acme account. You're in the middle of a power session. Hold button: 'Acme is moving forward, they want a technical demo next week, main concern is integration with Workday, I'll loop in solutions engineering tomorrow.' Slack sent in 6 seconds. Back to prospecting without losing momentum.
