Dragon is the premier speech recognition software on the market today. It offers a unique blend of accuracy, speed and flexibility, with a user profile that grows as it is attuned to your voice.
It can be used on any computer or laptop running Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 or 10. In addition to being available as standalone desktop software, it is also part of the Dragon NaturallySpeaking suite, along with Dragon Professional Individual and Professional Group.
Using Dragon, you can create documents and email dictations with your voice instead of typing them by hand. It works in many applications including Word, Microsoft Outlook and Internet Explorer.
Fast and accurate dictation (up to 3 times faster than typists) helps users complete tasks with ease and efficiency. However, it is important to note that dictation and transcription are resource-intensive, meaning you should not run them on low-end machines.
For those with dyslexia or other word-retrieval difficulties, the ability to dictate text can improve writing skills. It is especially helpful for those with grapho-motor weaknesses, which often make it difficult to commit ideas to paper in a timely manner.
Dragon is compatible with a variety of cloud-based document-sharing and file-storage apps, such as Dropbox or Evernote. You can also synchronize your personal customizations with supported desktop solutions, so work started on the road or in the field can easily be completed back at the office.
