Use Cases

Action Phrase turns spoken words into real-world control. Whether you’re on stage, in a control room, at your desk, or in your home studio, Action Phrase helps you move faster, reduce friction, and operate hands-free.

Here are some of the ways people use it.

🎤 Live Event Production

Run a show without taking your hands off the console.

Trigger:

• Lower thirds
• Video roll-ins
• Lighting cues
• Companion buttons
• OSC commands
• Graphics engines like H2R

Instead of hunting for the right button, you simply say it.

“Show keynote lower third.”

“Roll sponsor video.”

“Fade lights to 60 percent.”

Action Phrase becomes your invisible assistant.

🎬 Broadcast & Streaming

Stay focused on storytelling — not button pressing.

Perfect for:

• Solo streamers
• Small production teams
• Church broadcasts
• Corporate livestreams
• Hybrid events

When you’re switching, producing, and presenting at the same time, voice control reduces cognitive load and frees up your hands.

🎙️ Presenters & Public Speakers

Control your environment without breaking flow.

Advance slides, trigger media, show graphics, or start timers — all without walking back to a laptop.

In Smart Run Mode, you can even use an activation phrase for intentional commands during live talks.

It feels natural.

It feels professional.

It feels seamless.

🎧 Rehearsal & Technical Run-Throughs

Build, test, and refine cues before going live.

• Enable only rehearsal groups.
• Use Manual Run Mode for safety.
• Experiment without risk.

Action Phrase helps you prepare with confidence.

🎛️ Companion & OSC Integration

If you already use tools like Bitfocus Companion or OSC-based systems, Action Phrase becomes a powerful front-end.

Say the command.

Send the trigger.

Keep moving.

It integrates into workflows you already know.

🏠 Automation & Personal Productivity

Action Phrase isn’t just for stages.

Use it to:

• Run Apple Shortcuts
• Trigger HTTP endpoints
• Control local systems
• Execute repetitive workflows

Your voice becomes a customizable macro system.

🎥 Solo Creators & YouTubers

When you’re filming alone, you don’t have a crew.

Action Phrase becomes your crew.

• Trigger recording.
• Change scenes.
• Adjust overlays.
• Start music.
• Run timers.

All without stepping out of frame.

🎓 Educators & Trainers

In classrooms or training environments:

• Launch media
• Control displays
• Trigger overlays
• Manage timing cues

Maintain attention and momentum without constant device interaction.

🧠 Complex, Multi-Step Automation

With support for multiple actions per phrase (Pro), you can:

• Send an OSC cue
• Trigger Companion
• Run a Shortcut
• Wait two seconds
• Send another command

All from one spoken phrase.

You’re not just running a command.

You’re orchestrating a sequence.

Why Action Phrase?

Because hands-free control matters.

Because live environments are unpredictable.

Because searching for buttons wastes time.

Because speech is the fastest interface we have.

Action Phrase gives professionals and creators a new layer of control — one that feels natural, powerful, and immediate.

Your words already have meaning.

Now they have execution.
