How It Works (And Why It's Secure)
SpeakLines leverages your browser's built-in SpeechRecognition API (a part of the Web Speech API) to transcribe audio live. When you click "Start Listening," it captures your voice in real time, turning it into text as you speak. No audio ever goes to a server unless you explicitly export it.
Because everything runs locally in your browser, your speech stays private. This means higher speed, zero upload delays, and full control over your data. This free dictation software gives you complete privacy while providing professional-grade voice typing online capabilities.
Use Cases & Tips
- Dictate notes, blogs, or emails hands-free using our audio to text converter
- Transcribe interviews or podcasts (speak or playback into mic)
- Use in meetings, lectures, or brainstorming sessions
- For best results: speak clearly, reduce background noise, and choose the correct language model
- Perfect for real-time transcription of lectures, meetings, or creative writing
Browser Support & Limitations
Most modern browsers (Chrome, Edge, Safari) support speech recognition, but support can vary. If the feature isn't supported, SpeakLines will notify you. Also, for long dictation, browsers sometimes stop listening after a time - you can just click "Start Listening" again to continue your voice to text session.
This tool is perfect for students, writers, professionals, journalists, and anyone who needs fast, private transcription without complicated software. Try our free online speech recognition today and experience the future of dictation!
