Dragon Dictate For Mac - Simply, Speech To Text

On our main blog I have just posted a short video of Dragon Dictate in action. Nothing flash, just the basic voice to text speech recognition that makes this software so useful.

The video shows me talking to my Mac using a Parrot VXI USB noise canceling headset and what I say is transcribed into a Dragon Pad edit session. In the video I just wanted to show that by talking normally, at your usual pace Dragon Dictate can accurately understand what is being said and can transcribe faster than you can type. Perfect for students writing large essays or anyone who needs to type large documents. Click the header link above and see Dragon Dictate in action.

To get accuracy this good I only had to spend around four minutes doing the basic voice training when I first created my voice profile. So setup time is minimal.
