Voice dictation for real estate agents

Agents do much of their thinking in the car and in the driveway, not at a desk. BabaVoices turns what you say between appointments into clean text: showing notes, buyer follow-ups, seller updates and a first draft of the listing description, ready to paste into email, your CRM or the MLS.

Where the writing time goes

A day with four showings and a listing appointment produces a surprising amount of writing: a note on each property while the details are fresh, a follow-up to the buyers about what they liked and what to see next, an update to a seller about feedback, a reply to a lender, and eventually a listing description for the house you just took on. Each piece is short, and each one gets put off because it means stopping, opening a laptop and typing. By evening the details have blurred together, and the follow-up that would have landed well at 2 p.m. goes out the next morning.

Talking is how agents already process a showing. BabaVoices captures that talk and turns it into usable text. You open the app on your phone, tap the mic, and say what you noticed in the order you noticed it. The browser's speech recognition writes it down, and Polish, which uses Anthropic's Claude, removes the filler, fixes grammar and punctuation, and joins the fragments into sentences. The text is copied to your clipboard the moment you stop, so it can go straight into a text message, an email, a CRM note field or a listing draft.

Three workflows that fit an agent's day

1. Showing notes, recorded in the driveway

Before you pull away, take sixty seconds: what the buyers reacted to, what they didn't like, any questions you need to answer. Polish the note and paste it into the contact's record in your CRM. When you write the follow-up that evening, the specifics are there.

2. Buyer and seller follow-ups

Dictate the message the way you'd say it on a call. On a phone, the Share button sends the polished text into Messages, WhatsApp or Gmail, so a client gets a clear, typo-free update while you're still parked outside the property. For sellers, the same approach works for summarizing feedback after an open house.

3. A first draft of the listing description

Walk the property and narrate it room by room, as if you were showing it to a buyer: the layout, the updates, the light, the yard, the commute. Polish turns that narration into clean paragraphs. You then cut it to your MLS's character limit and adjust the wording. Polish does not add features you didn't mention, which matters: the draft describes the house you saw, not a generic one.

Before and after

Notes spoken while walking out of a showing with first-time buyers.

The address, the names and the open question about the roof all survive. The "I think" became "I need to confirm," which keeps the uncertainty you expressed rather than turning a guess into a fact. That is the behavior you want from a tool that touches property details.

Honest limitations

• Check every number. Prices, square footage, HOA fees and years are easy to mishear. Read the polished text before it goes to a client or the MLS.
• Fair housing still applies. Polish cleans up wording; it does not review your copy for compliance. Describe the property, not the people you imagine living there.
• No tone presets yet. Today, Polish produces clean, neutral text from what you said. A dedicated listing tone is planned. Until then, narrate in the style you want the listing to read.
• You need a connection. On most phones, speech recognition runs through the phone maker's online service, so a basement with no signal won't work well.
• The free plan has a daily Polish limit. Dictation is unlimited. Polish is 10 a day without an account and 25 when you sign in; busy agents may want a paid plan.
