Allows You To
Make Prody Parrot your assistant: Tell you the time, navigate the
Web for you, start a letter, and open your most-used programs.
Have Prody Parrot tell jokes, make comments, ask to be fed, and
fly around your desktop.
Issue commands in five ways—through speech input, keystroke
combinations, mouse gestures, double-clicking commands, and
dragging icons. Prody Parrot also gives you feedback in three
ways: through text, speech, and animation.
Choose when your assistant works and when he plays. Teach
Prody Parrot what to say and adjust the quality of his voice.
Store the commands and actions that you configured or trained.
Users sharing the same computer can have their individual way
of using Prody Parrot.
Use Prody Parrot for a new application instantly. Prody Parrot
extracts and loads menu items from any Windows program and
immediately knows how to perform the associated actions.
Teach Prody Parrot to respond to your commands in custom
ways, such as running applications, executing macros, speaking
or displaying messages, and performing animated action
sequences.
