Where built-in Windows dictation falls short
Windows ships with voice typing on Win+H, and for short notes in English it is passable. But it does not learn from your corrections, its editing commands are limited, and accuracy drops hard beyond English. If you need dictation software for Windows that you can actually work in all day, that gap is exactly what blablaType closes.
System-wide dictation
Voice typing in Windows that works in every window: Word, Telegram, email, browser, CRM. You choose your own hotkey on first run, so it never clashes with what your laptop already uses. Hold it, speak, and the text is typed at your cursor.
Accuracy beyond English
Most voice recognition software for Windows is built English-first. blablaType is tuned for real Russian and Ukrainian speech too: fast talk, names and slang come out right, with punctuation placed automatically.
A dictionary you build
Add colleagues' names, product terms and brands to your dictionary, and blablaType uses them when recognizing speech. No more mangled words.
Voice commands and translation
On Max, select a piece of text and say what to do with it: shorten it, make it formal, translate it. On Pro and above, hold your translation key to translate on the fly: speak your language, English gets typed.
How to set up voice to text on Windows
- Download blablaType for Windows and sign in. The free plan starts right away, no card needed, and it never expires. On first run the app asks you to pick your dictation key.
- Put the cursor in any text field: a document, a chat, an email, a search box.
- Hold the dictation key you chose and speak. Release it and the text appears at your cursor with punctuation in place.
- Add a word to your dictionary if needed, and the app uses it from then on.
blablaType vs built-in Windows dictation
| Built-in Win+H | blablaType | |
|---|---|---|
| Russian and Ukrainian | Noticeably weaker, garbles names and endings | Engine tuned for real Russian and Ukrainian speech |
| Your words and terms | Does not learn from corrections | Fix a word once, it is remembered for good |
| Editing by voice | A narrow set of stock commands | Tell it what to fix or rewrite and it does it |
| Translation on the fly | None | Hold your translation key: speak your language, English gets typed |
| Sending without the keyboard | You still reach for Enter yourself | On Max, Enter presses itself after a dictation |
Frequently asked questions
Yes, on both, on desktops and laptops alike. A laptop's built-in microphone is enough, though a headset pushes accuracy even higher. A macOS version is in development.
There is a free plan that never expires and needs no card: 60 minutes of dictation a month. Pro is $8.99 a month and lifts the minute limit, and Max is $12.99 a month and adds voice commands over selected text. Both are cheaper paid yearly. All prices include tax. The web widget on this page stays free. File transcription is a separate feature still in development, with pricing announced at launch.
It is more accurate beyond English, applies your custom dictionary, understands free-form editing commands and translates as you speak. Built-in dictation can do none of that.
In the desktop app audio goes to our servers only for the moment of recognition and is not stored. The free web widget runs on your browser's recognition and sends audio to Google's speech service.
