How Vox Creates Word Docs, PDFs, and Presentations
When you ask Vox to create a document, it doesn't generate markdown or plain text that you have to reformat. It creates real, native files —.docx, .pptx, and .pdf — that you can open immediately in Word, PowerPoint, or any PDF viewer. Here's how.
Three document types
Word Documents (.docx)
When you ask for a Word document, Vox uses create_word_document to generate a proper Office Open XML file. The output includes formatted headings, paragraphs, lists, and sections — not a text file with a .docx extension.
“Computer, write a project status report in Word format. Include completed tasks, in-progress work, and blockers.”
PDF Documents
PDFs are generated via create_pdf_document. These are ideal for things you'll share externally — invoices, contracts, reports that shouldn't be edited.
“Computer, create a PDF summary of our Q3 results for the board.”
Presentations (.pptx)
Slide decks are created via create_presentation_document. Vox structures content into title slides, content slides, and summary slides with a clean, professional layout.
“Computer, make a 10-slide deck from the marketing data I shared earlier.”
Context makes documents better
Vox's single-conversation architecture means every document benefits from your full history. When you say “write a proposal for the redesign,” Vox already knows:
- Which redesign (you discussed it last week)
- Budget figures (you mentioned $45K)
- Team members (Sarah, Marcus, and Alex)
- Technical requirements (React migration)
The more you use Vox, the better your documents get. Context from past conversations automatically enriches every document you create.
Iterate without starting over
Documents aren't fire-and-forget. You can refine them:
“Computer, add an appendix to that report with the raw data tables.”
“Computer, change all dates in the proposal to Q4 instead of Q3.”
“Computer, make the executive summary shorter — two paragraphs max.”
Chain with email
The most powerful workflow: create and distribute in one command.
“Computer, write a meeting recap, save it as a PDF, and email it to the meeting attendees.”
Three tools — create_pdf_document, search_contacts, and send_email — execute in sequence from a single sentence.
Vox turns voice into documents. Real files, real formatting, ready to open — not text you have to reformat yourself.
