Quora answers are long-form writing given away for free, which makes effort the limiting factor. With Typally you hold a hotkey, speak, and the text lands in Quora exactly where your cursor was.
Disclosure: Typally is our product. We have tried to describe what Quora already does without talking you out of using it.None. The answer editor is typed.
A good Quora answer takes twenty minutes and returns reputation rather than money. So people who genuinely know the subject write two lines or skip it, and the platform fills with confident guesswork.
In practice people use it for: Long answers, question descriptions, profile credentials, and comments on other answers.
Nothing changes inside Quora itself. Typally sits in the tray and types into the focused window:
Install, sign in, and it waits in the tray.
Click first. Typally types into Quora wherever the caret already is, with no idea what that field is for.
The recording lasts exactly as long as you do.
Quora's editor handles formatting inconsistently. Dictate plain prose and format afterwards.
Typally types into Quora's editor, so writing the answer only you can write costs speaking time. The cleanup pass punctuates it into something readable, which is what separates a considered answer from an obvious ramble.
A specialist who had never answered anything speaks a four-paragraph reply to a question in their field. It takes six minutes and becomes the top answer, which brings enquiries they did not expect.
Answer as if explaining to one person who asked you at work. That framing produces the specificity that makes an answer worth reading, and speaking makes it cheap.

No. Answers are typed.
Because writing them costs real time for no direct return. Reducing that cost is what changes the calculation.
Yes — the description field accepts text like the answer editor.
