Dictionary & Snippets
Teach AsPeach your vocabulary and create voice-activated text shortcuts.
Custom Dictionary
The dictionary lets you fix words that Whisper consistently gets wrong. You tell AsPeach: "When you hear this, replace it with that."
Why You Need This
Whisper is great at general speech, but it often struggles with proper nouns, brand names, technical jargon, and uncommon words. For example, it might transcribe your company name "TechFlow" as "tech flow" or "tech flo." The dictionary fixes this automatically, every time.
How It Works
You add pairs of "wrong word" → "correct word." Whenever AsPeach transcribes the wrong version, it automatically replaces it with your correct version before pasting.
Examples
| Wrong (what Whisper hears) | Correct (what you want) |
|---|---|
| aspeech | AsPeach |
| john smith | John Smith |
| reactjs | React.js |
| mongodb | MongoDB |
| openai | OpenAI |
| kubernetes | Kubernetes |
How to Add an Entry
- Click the gear icon to open Settings.
- Scroll down to the Dictionary section.
- In the first text field, type the wrong word — the word Whisper mistakenly transcribes.
- In the second text field, type the correct word — what you actually want.
- Click Add.
Your new entry appears in the list below. You can click any entry to edit or delete it.
Phonetic Matching
AsPeach uses phonetic matching, which means even if Whisper hears a slightly different variation of the wrong word (different spelling but similar sound), the dictionary correction still applies. You don't need to add every possible misspelling.
Built-In Dictionary
AsPeach comes with 50+ pre-loaded corrections for commonly misheard words. These work automatically — you don't need to add them.
Limits
- Free tier: Up to 10 dictionary entries.

Text Snippets
Snippets are voice-activated shortcuts for frequently used text. You define a short trigger word, and when you say "peach [trigger]", AsPeach expands it into the full text.
Why You Need This
If you find yourself repeatedly dictating the same thing — your email address, a greeting, a signature, a standard reply — snippets let you say one word instead of the whole thing.
How It Works
Every snippet has a trigger (a single word) and an expansion (the full text). To activate a snippet, you say "peach [trigger]" during your dictation.
The "peach" prefix is required to prevent false triggers. Without it, common words like "address" or "email" would accidentally expand every time you said them in normal speech.
Examples
| Trigger | Expansion | You say |
|---|---|---|
| signature | Best regards, John Smith | CEO, Acme Corp | "peach signature" |
| address | 123 Main Street, New York, NY 10001 | "peach address" |
| myemail | john@example.com | "peach myemail" |
| thanks | Thank you for your message. I'll review this and get back to you shortly. | "peach thanks" |
Dynamic Variables
You can include special variables in your snippet expansions. These get replaced with real values when the snippet is triggered:
| Variable | What it becomes | Example |
|---|---|---|
{{date}} | Current date | 3/14/2026 |
{{time}} | Current time | 2:30 PM |
{{datetime}} | Full date and time | 3/14/2026, 2:30 PM |
{{year}} | Current year | 2026 |
{{month}} | Current month name | March |
{{day}} | Current day name | Friday |
{{clipboard}} | Whatever is in your clipboard | (varies) |
Snippet with Variables — Example
Trigger: report
Expansion: Weekly Status Report — {{date}} (prepared by John Smith)
You say: "peach report"
Result: "Weekly Status Report — 3/14/2026 (prepared by John Smith)"
How to Add a Snippet
- Click the gear icon to open Settings.
- Scroll down to the Snippets section.
- In the Trigger field, type your trigger word (a single word — this is what you'll say after "peach").
- In the Expansion field, type the full text you want inserted. This can be multiple lines. You can include
{{date}},{{time}}, and other variables. - Click Add.
Click any snippet in the list to edit or delete it.
Limits
- Free tier: Up to 5 snippets.
- Pro tier: Unlimited snippets.
Smart Correction Suggestions
When AsPeach shows you a preview of your transcription and you manually edit a word, AsPeach notices the change and offers to add it as a dictionary entry. This way, next time Whisper gets it wrong, AsPeach will correct it automatically.
For example: AsPeach transcribes "tech flo" and you change it to "TechFlow" in the preview. AsPeach asks: "Add correction: tech flo → TechFlow?" Click Yes and it's saved to your dictionary.
