Audiomatic

Audiomatic is a cleverly-devised application that is capable of performing nearly any kind of repetitive tasks or macros just by asking your computer to do so, literally.

Its voice recognition capabilities allow you to actually "tell" the program to launch an application, simulate a keystroke, run a script, or open a website.

The program will need to calibrate your voice first. Once you have gone through that simple process, all you need to do is create your own macros and assign a message to them. Alternatively, you can associate each macro with a key combination of your choice, or you can do both. Audiomatic comes with a useful collection of ready-to-use macros, organized according to various categories - clipboard, games, kids, Internet macros, etc. Besides, within each category you can classify your tasks or macros according to the type of action they perform - some simulate keystrokes (browse back, check e-mail, or close window), some launch a program (the calculator, Google, or a solitaire), some run scripts (copy, cut, or paste), and others speak text, playing back a previously existing audio recording.

The program will keep statistics of all your macros, letting you know how many times they have been used, and when it was the last time you used it. When using key combinations, you can also add a delay in seconds between the moment you activate the macro and the time it actually starts working. Some macros can be further customized - thus, you can associate program arguments and a specific working directory with those macros that launch programs.

Whatever your needs are, Audiomatic will certainly save you time not only by performing tedious and repetitive tasks for you, but also by making it simple for you to activate the right macro at the right time.
