Austen's Pride

Over 100 hidden achievements that show up when you least expect them. Just talk and we'll handle the confetti.

You dictated 47,000 words, the length of Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. Old sport, that's quite the output.

The Stenographer

You dictated 95,000 words, the length of Tolkien's The Hobbit. There and back again, one word at a time.

There and Back Again

You dictated 199,000 words, the length of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. You greet the blank page like an old friend.

The Tale of the Three Brothers

You saved 500 hours not typing, about three months of full time work. Time travel, technically.
