Voice typing in Gorgias

E-commerce support is high volume, repetitive, and judged on whether it sounds human. Typally works at the keyboard level, so anywhere Gorgias accepts typing, it accepts your voice instead.

Does Gorgias have built-in dictation?

Macros and AI reply suggestions. No dictation of your own speech.

Why dictate in Gorgias at all?

An agent handling two hundred tickets a day leans on macros for everything. The result is technically correct and obviously automated, and customers of small brands notice immediately because they chose the brand for not being faceless.

In practice people use it for: Ticket replies, the personal paragraph beside a macro, internal notes, and order-specific explanations.

How to dictate in Gorgias

Nothing changes inside Gorgias itself. Typally sits in the tray and types into the focused window:

1

Start with the install

Windows or macOS build, signed in once.

2

Focus the Gorgias field you want the words in

The cursor position is the whole instruction — Gorgias routes the keystrokes from there.

3

Hold the hotkey and talk

Say the whole thought, then let go. No time limit.

4

Read it before you move on

Gorgias shows customer replies and internal notes in the same thread view. Check which composer you are in.

What Typally adds in Gorgias

Typally types into the reply editor, so the human paragraph beside your macro costs about as long as saying it. Its cleanup pass punctuates and removes filler, which means a spoken apology reads as considered rather than as a transcript.

What this looks like in practice

An agent handling a lost-parcel complaint speaks the apology and explanation rather than pasting a macro. The customer replies thanking them, which had not happened once that week.

One habit that makes it work better

Macro the policy, speak the apology. Written apologies drift into passive voice; spoken ones stay direct, which is what defuses an angry customer.

What to watch out for in Gorgias

Gorgias shows customer replies and internal notes in the same thread view. Check which composer you are in.

Frequently asked questions

Does Gorgias have dictation?

Write the customer-specific paragraph yourself. That paragraph is the only part anyone reads closely.

Can I dictate internal notes?

Yes. Switch to the note composer first.
