TalkType

What is it?

TalkType is highly accurate dictation software built for Windows, Mac and mobile devices. With TalkType, you can easily control your device with your voice.

Most in-built device dictation is notoriously poor: you’re often battling slow dictation speeds and inaccurate or low quality output. TalkType is designed to be the remedy to those frustrations.

Key features

• Real-time speech-to-text that works in any app, so there’s no copying and pasting
• No setup or voice training needed before you start
• A custom dictionary for names, jargon and specialist terms
• AI writing tools to tidy up and refine what you’ve dictated
• A built-in document editor and library for your notes and drafts
• Apps for Windows, Mac, web browsers, iPhone and Android, with syncing between devices
• Enterprise security, including ISO 27001 certification, GDPR compliance and single sign-on

Who it’s for

TalkType is designed for people who find it hard to turn their thoughts into written words, including neurodivergent employees. Its “capture first, polish after” approach lets you get ideas down by voice in emails, documents and forms, then edit them afterwards.
