Type your invention instead of speaking

What it does

Typing is the quiet alternative to recording. You write a description of your invention and the app sends it to the same drafting service as a recording. You get a draft back. In the list, a typed invention shows "Typed" where a recording shows its length.

How to use it

1. On the Inventions tab, tap the keyboard button at the top right, next to the microphone. On an empty list you can also tap Type instead.
2. On the "Type invention" screen, optionally add a Title.
3. Check the Language picker. Choose the language you are writing in.
4. Write in the big text box. The hint reads: "Describe your invention: the problem it solves, how it works, and what makes it new."
5. Tap Draft this invention. The button stays grey while the box is empty.
6. The app shows "Sending to drafter..." and then "Sent! Your draft will be ready shortly." Tap Back to drafts.

Settings that affect it

• The language picker on the screen decides the language of your text.
• Settings > Legal: you must have agreed to share data with the services. See "Your data and the AI services".

Limits and honest caveats

• More detail gives a better draft. The screen says it plainly: type as much as you can.
• The draft is written by AI (artificial intelligence) and can contain mistakes. Check it and edit it.
• Your text is sent to Patentomania's servers and to AI providers. The data screen in the app lists them.
• If sending fails, you stay on the screen and can try again.
