Voice to Text for Warp
Warp is the modern terminal built for teams. AI command search, shareable workflows, and block-based output. But even with Warp's intelligent features, you still need to type your commands and documentation. Blurt removes that bottleneck. Hold a button, speak your command or workflow description, release. Text appears in your input area. Works seamlessly with Warp on macOS. Your hands stay ready for navigation. Your voice handles the composition.
The Typing Problem
Complex commands even AI search needs help finding
Warp's AI command search is powerful, but you still need to describe what you want. Typing out 'kubernetes pod logs with label selector filtered by timestamp and following real-time output' takes time. Speaking it takes seconds. Your query gets to Warp's AI faster, and you get to work sooner.
Workflow documentation that teams actually use
Warp lets you create and share workflows, but writing clear descriptions is tedious. You know the workflow should explain 'Deploy staging environment with database migrations, seed data, and automated smoke tests.' But typing it out mid-build means the description gets skipped. Colleagues inherit undocumented workflows.
Team snippets that need context
Shared command snippets are only useful if people understand when to use them. Each snippet needs a description: when to run it, what it does, what prerequisites exist. Speaking that context takes 10 seconds. Typing it takes a minute. The difference determines whether your team actually maintains the library.
AI prompt refinement takes iteration
Warp's AI features respond to natural language, but getting the right query takes refinement. You're essentially having a conversation with the terminal. Speaking your queries and follow-ups is faster than typing them, especially when you're iterating on complex commands.
Block annotations for future reference
Warp's block-based output lets you add notes to command blocks. Explaining what a command does, why you ran it, or what the output means is valuable. But typing annotations interrupts your debugging flow. Speaking them keeps your hands on the keyboard for the next command while documenting the current one.
How It Works
Blurt works anywhere you can type on macOS. Warp's modern input area, workflow editor, and AI prompt fields all accept dictated text. If your cursor is there, Blurt can insert text.
Hold your hotkey
Press your configured shortcut. A subtle indicator shows Blurt is listening. Warp stays focused and ready.
Speak your command or description
Describe your workflow, dictate your AI query, or speak the command structure. Natural language, technical terms, flags. Blurt handles it.
Release and execute
Text appears in Warp's input area. Run the command, refine the AI query, or save the workflow description. Your terminal stays in flow.
Real Scenarios
AI-assisted command discovery
You need a complex AWS CLI command but can't remember the exact flags. Hold your hotkey and speak: 'S3 sync with delete, exclude hidden files, only modified in last 24 hours, with progress display.' Text appears in Warp's input, ready for AI search to help you find the right syntax. Query composed in seconds.
Workflow documentation for team sharing
You're creating a deployment workflow in Warp to share with your team. The workflow needs a clear description. Speak: 'Full production deploy with pre-deploy database backup, rolling container updates, and automatic rollback on health check failure.' Documentation written before you forget the details.
Shared snippet descriptions
Your team maintains a library of common commands. Each needs context. Speak: 'Run this to reset the development database, drops all tables and re-seeds with test data, requires local Postgres running.' Colleagues understand the snippet without asking you directly.
Complex multi-line command composition
You need a command spanning multiple lines with pipes and conditionals. Speak the logic: 'Find all Go files modified today, extract function definitions, sort alphabetically, and save to functions.txt.' Starting point dictated in 5 seconds. Clean up syntax and execute.
AI conversation refinement
You asked Warp AI for help but need to clarify. Speaking follow-up queries is faster than typing: 'Actually, I need this to work with Kubernetes 1.28 and exclude the kube-system namespace.' Iteration at conversation speed.
Block annotations during debugging
You're troubleshooting a production issue. Each command block tells part of the story. Speak annotations as you work: 'This confirmed memory usage spikes during batch processing, not related to connection pool.' Notes captured without breaking your debugging flow.
Commit messages from Warp's git integration
Warp shows git status in your prompt. When you're ready to commit, speak your message: 'Refactor payment service to use idempotency keys and add retry logic for network failures.' Detailed commit message without the typing tax.
Why Warp users choose Blurt for command and workflow composition
