Open Filed on any page and make sure the workflow with audio enabled is selected.

Privacy
Audio never leaves your device. The Web Speech API processes speech locally in the browser. Only the text transcript is sent to Notion, directly to Notion's API, not through Filed's servers. No audio file is saved.
Tips
- Speak at a normal pace. The browser's recognition handles accents well at moderate speed.
- Background noise reduces accuracy. A quiet environment gives the best results.
- The transcript is best-effort. Skim it before saving if accuracy matters.
