component.
Check it off, save time, stay prepared

voice-guided protocols that any team member can follow — with the
same precision, every single time.

System speech recognition is unavailable. Use keyboard voice
instead: tap the 🎤 key on your keyboard and say "next /
check / back / repeat"
Say: "next" · "check" · "back" · "repeat"
💡 Tip: start with a greeting to get the mic's attention — e.g. "Hi
next", "Hi check", "Hi back" or "Hi repeat".
