What is Open Steno?

What is Stenography?

Fast

Court reporters have used stenography for over a century to write at over 200 words per minute, faster than most people speak.

Ergonomic

Stenographers stroke chords instead of typing keys, resulting in less movement and better ergonomics than typing.

Flexible

Steno chords can map to words, phrases, symbols, emoji, macros, and more.
