Frequently asked questions
If you have a question that isn’t answered here, the contact form is on contact.
What is Lites?
A voice-first web app that turns one spoken or typed request into ten ready-to-use ideas, then sends the option you choose straight to your favorite AI chat tool or search site. The app uses Anthropic’s Claude to generate the ideas and the Web Speech API for the voice layer.
Which AI tools can it open the chosen option in?
Ships with twelve defaults: SecureMyName (pinned at top), then alphabetical: ChatGPT, Claude, Dynadot, GoDaddy, Google Gemini, Google Search, Grok, Namecheap, Perplexity, Spaceship, Unstoppable Domains. Any site that accepts a URL query parameter can be added in Settings as a custom template.
Can I use it without a microphone?
Yes. Every voice action has a typed equivalent. You can type your request, type a selection like “select 8”, or click the option directly.
Does it work for prompts as well as domain names?
Yes. The same flow handles domain names, product names, headlines, search terms, and fully written prompts. Claude matches the format and length of each option to what the request is asking for.
What is Passthrough?
A mode that skips the 10-ideas step and sends your typed or spoken request straight to the selected service. Useful when you already know what you want to ask and just need it routed to a specific tool quickly. Toggle the Passthrough checkbox above the Generate button; the button label flips to Send, and the inline dropdown next to the checkboxes shows which service it will send to. Passthrough is off by default and the setting persists across sessions.
What is Automatic?
A companion to Passthrough. When both are on, the moment your voice transcript arrives the app sends it to the selected service immediately, no Send click required. Tap Speak, say your question, and the destination opens. Typed input always requires a click. Automatic only has an effect when Passthrough is also on, so the checkbox stays disabled until you turn Passthrough on. Both settings are off by default and persist across sessions.
How do I install Lites on iPhone?
Open the site in Safari. Chrome and Firefox on iOS cannot install web apps, only Safari can. Tap the Share button in the bottom toolbar (the square with an up-arrow), scroll the share sheet, and choose Add to Home Screen. Confirm the name and tap Add. The Lites icon appears on your Home Screen alongside your other apps. Tap it to launch in standalone mode (no Safari URL bar, full screen, respects the notch on newer iPhones).
Can I install Lites on desktop or Android?
Yes. In Chrome, Edge, or any Chromium-based desktop browser, an install icon appears in the address bar (look for a small monitor or plus icon). Click it and the app installs as a standalone window. The same flow works on Android Chrome.
Which browsers support voice input?
Voice input uses the Web Speech API. It works in Chrome, Edge, Opera, and Brave on all platforms, and in Safari on macOS and iOS. Firefox does not implement the API, so the voice button disables itself there and typed input still works.
