The Clavox launch film

Three and a half minutes on why typing holds your ideas back, and what it looks like when your voice does the writing instead. Narrated by Clavox founder Samuel Eniola. Sound on.

The film has captions burned into the picture, so you can follow it with the sound off. It’s also on the Clavox homepage.

About the film

The Clavox launch film is a short story in five parts. It starts with the problem: a keyboard that can’t keep up with how fast you think. It ends with Clavox doing the writing while you talk, in a chat, an email, a note and a code file, with the Wi-Fi switched off. Samuel Eniola, who founded and builds Clavox, wrote and narrates it.

Scene by scene

  1. The wait. Your computer can do billions of things a second, and then it waits for you to type one letter at a time. You speak at about 150 words a minute and type at about 40.
  2. What gets lost. Between your mind and the screen you start cutting, and it’s never the dull thoughts you lose. It’s the sharper line, the bigger idea, the message you rewrote until it stopped sounding like you.
  3. The cost. Type two hours a day, and you could have said it all in about 30 minutes.
  4. The keyboard. For 150 years, ideas have been squeezed through the same rows of keys. We learned to sit still, eyes on the screen, one key at a time. Then: “You don’t have to anymore.”
  5. Samuel introduces Clavox. He built it so your voice becomes your keyboard.
  6. The first demo. In a chat, he says “Okay, so, um, let’s meet at two… no, actually, let’s do three.” Clavox types “Let’s meet at three.”
  7. What you meant. Dictation writes down what you said; Clavox writes what you meant. That’s voice intelligence. The ums, the “you know”s and the false starts are gone.
  8. Think out loud, and it comes back organised. A rambling packing list becomes a tidy note with bullet points.
  9. Scratch that. Say the wrong thing, say “scratch that”, and it’s gone.
  10. The right words for every app. One sentence becomes a casual team chat message, a short email, and a precise comment in a code file.
  11. Edit by voice. Highlight a paragraph and say what you want: shorter, more formal.
  12. It learns your names. A name is corrected once and saved, and it’s spelled right every time after that.
  13. The part Samuel cares about most. Cloud dictation sends your voice to someone else’s computer. Clavox runs entirely on yours, and that isn’t a setting or a promise: it’s how Clavox is built.
  14. Turn off the Wi-Fi. It still works. On a plane, in a village, anywhere.
  15. Who it’s for. The writer at midnight, the doctor between patients, the developer talking to the code: anyone whose ideas outrun their hands.
  16. From now on, you can just talk. The keyboard had its era. The film ends on the Clavox mark and an invitation to join the waitlist at clavox.ai.

What the film shows about Clavox

Every demo in the film is something you do with Clavox: press a shortcut, talk, and clean text lands where your cursor is. Here is where to read more about each part.

Watch the launch live

Clavox launches on 18 November 2026, on Mac and Windows first, then Linux, iPhone and Android. The launch is streamed live on our YouTube channel, and clavox.ai/live takes you straight to the stream.

How the film was made

Samuel wrote the narration and recorded it himself. The captions follow his voice, and in the demo section every scene change lands on the beat of the music, which is “Happy Beats & Business Moves Vol. 1” by Sascha Ende.

The film is animation, not a screen recording. The Clavox recording indicator is rebuilt from the app itself, and the app windows around it are drawn to show where your words land: a chat, an email, a note, a code file.

Watching the film well

The film is made to be heard: the first minute has no music, only the sound of typing that builds and then stops dead. Watch it with sound on if you can, full screen, on a computer. If you’re somewhere quiet, the burned-in captions carry every line of the narration.

Watching on a slow connection

The full film is a large HD file, about 100 MB. It only starts downloading when you press play. On the homepage, phones on data saver or a slow connection get a lighter 720p copy of the same film automatically.
