What this is

This page is a lightweight speech to text demo that turns spoken words into writing — true voice to text in your browser using modern automatic speech recognition. It shows how speech recognition and voice recognition can turn audio into text in real time. If you just want simple dictation, it works like voice typing, similar to Google Docs voice typing (aka voice typing in Google Docs). Our engine focuses on accurate results and low latency, with robust speech recognition voice capabilities.

Use it as a minimal dictation app in the browser or as a companion to your favorite dictation software. The Chrome extension can transcribe audio to text, transcribe audio recording to text, and transcribe from audio to text so you can quickly handle any audio to text conversion. Bring a voice memo, a meeting recording, or a podcast and instantly convert audio into text.
