Voice typing in PandaDoc

Does PandaDoc have built-in dictation?

Templates, content libraries and AI assistance by plan. No dictation.

Why dictate in PandaDoc at all?

A proposal is ninety per cent reusable boilerplate and ten per cent about this specific client. The ten per cent decides the outcome and is written last, under time pressure, when the rest has already taken an hour.

In practice people use it for: Proposal narrative sections, executive summaries, scope descriptions, and covering messages.

How to dictate in PandaDoc

Because Typally types at the system level rather than plugging into PandaDoc, setup is the same everywhere:

1

Get Typally running

Install, sign in, and it waits in the tray.

2

Focus the PandaDoc field you want the words in

Make sure PandaDoc has the cursor in the intended field; that is the only thing that decides where words appear.

3

Hold, say it, release

Nothing truncates part-way through.

4

Read it before you move on

Contract terms are legal text. Dictate the narrative sections and leave the clauses to your reviewed templates.

What Typally adds in PandaDoc

Typally types into PandaDoc's editor, so the bespoke section that decides the outcome gets written while the client conversation is still fresh. Boilerplate stays templated; the part that has to be new stops being the bottleneck.

What this looks like in practice

An agency owner speaks a bespoke two-paragraph opening for each proposal instead of reusing one. Proposals go out same-day, and the win rate on the ones sent within 24 hours is visibly better.

One habit that makes it work better

Speak the executive summary as if explaining to the client why you are the right choice. It is the only section many decision-makers read.

What to watch out for in PandaDoc

Contract terms are legal text. Dictate the narrative sections and leave the clauses to your reviewed templates.
