IGNITE PRODUCTIVITY WITH FAST, ACCURATE DICTATION

Say words and watch them appear on your computer screen – three times faster than typing – with up to 99% recognition accuracy right out of the box. Correcting or revising your dictated text is simple with a new, more powerful correction interface that lets you quickly edit words or phrases. Dragon Dictate adapts to your voice and the words you use to deliver better recognition results over time. You can personalise Dragon Dictate with your own custom vocabulary of acronyms, proper names and other unique phrases that you frequently use. Dragon Dictate can even adapt its format rules by detecting your format corrections – abbreviations, numbers and more – so your dictated text looks the way you want it to every time. Review your work with Dragon Dictate’s Text-to-Speech feature, which reads back editable text for easy proofing or multitasking.

IGNITE CONVENIENCE USING YOUR FAVOURITE MAC APPLICATIONS

Dragon Dictate for Mac 3 goes beyond simple speech-to-text and gives you control in more applications so that you can simply speak to do more than ever before.
