Use ClickUp Brain MAX and Talk-to-Text

ClickUp offers powerful Brain MAX and Talk-to-Text features that help you capture ideas, summarize work, and streamline collaboration directly inside your workspace.

This guide walks you through how Brain MAX works, how to enable and use Talk-to-Text, and how to manage common settings so your team can work faster and more accurately.

What is ClickUp Brain MAX?

Brain MAX is an enhanced capability in ClickUp Brain that gives you higher limits and more powerful processing for AI-driven actions across your workspace.

With Brain MAX, you can use advanced AI tools for tasks like:

• Summarizing long task descriptions or docs.
• Generating content such as updates, notes, or drafts.
• Transforming voice notes into clear text with Talk-to-Text.
• Speeding up everyday work with context-aware suggestions.

These features are integrated directly into the ClickUp interface, so your team can stay focused without switching apps.

How ClickUp Brain MAX Works

Brain MAX operates on top of the standard ClickUp Brain functionality. When enabled for your workspace, you gain access to higher AI usage thresholds and richer outputs.

In practical terms, this means you can run more AI operations during the day, handle longer content, and rely on better quality results when using AI to summarize or rephrase content.

Key benefits include:

• Improved reliability during busy times.
• Consistency of AI results across different views.
• Deeper analysis of content, especially in long-form docs or complex tasks.

Accessing ClickUp Brain MAX Features

You access Brain MAX from within the same locations where you normally find ClickUp Brain tools.

1. Open a task, Doc, or other supported item.
2. Look for AI or Brain controls, such as buttons to summarize, improve, or create content.
3. Run the action you need, and Brain MAX will handle the request behind the scenes.

Depending on your plan and workspace configuration, you may see Brain MAX usage indicators or messages that show when higher limits are being used.

Overview of ClickUp Talk-to-Text

Talk-to-Text lets you speak instead of type, and converts your voice into text inside ClickUp. This is especially useful when you are on the go, moving quickly between meetings, or prefer dictation for long notes.

Using Talk-to-Text, you can quickly:

• Capture ideas without typing.
• Add detailed task updates using your voice.
• Record meeting notes or daily standups in real time.
• Turn spoken thoughts into clear, structured text.

How to Use ClickUp Talk-to-Text

Talk-to-Text works through a simple recording and transcription flow embedded in supported ClickUp areas.

Start a Talk-to-Text Recording in ClickUp

1. Open the task, Doc, or comment field where you want to add text.
2. Locate the Talk-to-Text or microphone-style control, if available in that view.
3. Click the control to start recording.
4. Speak clearly at a normal pace so the transcription is accurate.
5. Click the control again to stop recording and generate text.

Once processing is complete, your spoken words appear as text in the active field. You can then edit, format, or move that content just like any other text in ClickUp.

Review and Edit Talk-to-Text Output in ClickUp

After your recording is transcribed, always review the output for clarity and correctness.

• Scan the text for names, numbers, or dates that may need correction.
• Break long paragraphs into bullet points or sections.
• Adjust the tone so it matches your team’s communication style.
• Save or post the content when you are satisfied.

Because Talk-to-Text is part of ClickUp, you can immediately use the text in workflows, automations, or follow-up tasks.

Best Practices for ClickUp Talk-to-Text

To get the best results from Talk-to-Text, keep a few practical tips in mind.

Speak Clearly and Structure Your Thoughts

Clear input produces better output. When using ClickUp Talk-to-Text:

• Speak at a steady pace and avoid talking over others.
• Dictate punctuation when needed, like saying “period” or “comma” if supported.
• Pause briefly between topics so the AI can separate ideas.
• Use simple sentences when outlining complex projects.

Use ClickUp Talk-to-Text for Common Workflows

Here are some useful ways to integrate Talk-to-Text into daily work:

• Create or update tasks while walking between meetings.
• Capture quick bug reports directly into a task description.
• Draft a standup update in a Doc using voice only.
• Record a quick project brief and then refine it with Brain tools.

Combine ClickUp Brain MAX with Talk-to-Text

The most powerful workflow comes from combining Brain MAX with Talk-to-Text in the same ClickUp workspace.

1. Record your rough notes with Talk-to-Text.
2. Use Brain actions to summarize the transcription.
3. Ask Brain to improve clarity, tone, or formatting.
4. Turn the result into an action list or project plan.

This combination allows you to move from raw spoken ideas to polished content and actionable tasks in minutes, without leaving ClickUp.

Manage Settings and Permissions

Depending on your role and plan, certain Brain MAX and Talk-to-Text options may be controlled at the workspace level.

• Workspace admins can manage plan-level access to Brain MAX features.
• Some AI tools may be limited to specific views or members.
• Usage may be monitored to keep your team within plan limits.

For the most accurate and current configuration details, always refer to official documentation in the ClickUp Help Center.
