Speech To Text Dictation
Use supported browser speech recognition to dictate notes into editable text.
Dictate notes in your browser
Typing is not always the fastest way to capture a thought. Using your browser’s built-in speech recognition, this tool turns speech into editable text, so you can dictate notes, drafts, and ideas hands-free where the feature is supported.
Because it uses the native browser API, there is nothing to install and, on supported browsers, dictation is quick to start. Speak, watch the text appear, then edit and copy it. Support varies by browser, so results depend on your setup.
Private and instant
Everything runs locally in your browser using standard web APIs — nothing is uploaded, logged, or stored on any server — so the tool works offline, responds instantly, and keeps whatever you paste in on your own device. That makes it safe to use even for confidential, client, or internal data you would never send to an unknown website.
