Voice In
Voice In is a browser extension that turns speech into text in web text fields, placing recognized words at the cursor in real time. It is available for Chrome and Edge on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Chromebooks, and supports more than 50 languages and 100 dialects. Built-in voice commands can add punctuation or paragraphs and correct common dictation errors. The maker says it supports more than 10,000 websites and lists 268 tested apps; some listed apps require Plus Advanced Mode. The free plan provides 60 minutes of dictation per day. Voice In Plus adds unlimited dictation, Advanced Mode, custom voice commands, a Dictation Box, language switching, case changes, and premium support. AI Transforms can polish selected text or apply a customized style; the maker says only selected text is sent to an AI model and is not stored by Voice In. Dictation requires an active internet connection and does not work offline. Its privacy policy says dictated audio and transcript text are processed using browser speech-to-text and are not sent to Voice In servers.
