Step 1
Voicy is a privacy-focused speech-to-text Windows app. It adds the most advanced dictation technology to your Windows computer and allows you to write with your voice everywhere.
Step 2
Complete the setup (2-minutes)
and select your keyboard shortcut.
During the Voicy setup, you can select a keyboard shortcut to use to start and stop your recordings. It's the easiest way to use dictation on your computer.
Step 3
Start dictating to Voicy
Once Voicy is installed, you can use speech-to-text in every text field on your computer. That includes Windows apps like Word and Outlook, plus websites like Gmail, Google Docs, ChatGPT, Claude, Slack, and more.
On average, voice typing can increase the speed of writing by 3x.
Instead of using your keyboard, simply click on the keyboard shortcut, start speaking, and you will see the text on your screen instantly.
Additionally, you always get perfect grammar and punctuation.
By completely cutting out the thousands of keystrokes we make every day, Voicy simply reduces the need to use your fingers and keyboard.
An ergonomic mouse and keyboard are great.
No keyboard is even better.
Windows built-in voice typing is fine for short notes, but it often breaks down when you need reliable dictation in real work. Accuracy drops, you have to say punctuation out loud, and some apps or websites still feel clunky. Voicy gives you cleaner dictation with automatic punctuation, better accuracy, and a smoother workflow across the apps you already use.

Windows speech-recognition app
Voicy is a Windows speech to text app that adds AI-powered voice dictation to every app on your computer. Whether you're writing in Outlook, Microsoft Word, Google Docs, Notepad, or browsing in Chrome, Edge, Opera, or Brave — Voicy works everywhere. Enjoy over 99% accuracy and lightning-fast transcriptions with automatic punctuation, so you never have to say "comma" or "period" out loud again.
Save your time and your wrists while writing 3x faster. Speech to text on Windows has never been this easy — just press your keyboard shortcut, start talking, and Voicy handles the rest. Use Voicy's AI modes to speak directly to ChatGPT, draft emails, or brainstorm ideas hands-free. Voicy works in over 50 languages, including Spanish, German, Russian, Hindi, French, Dutch, and many more.
Why Microsoft's own speech-recognition is falling behind.
Windows gives you two built-in options: Win+H Voice Typing for quick dictation, and Voice Access on Windows 11 for broader hands-free control. They work for basic tasks, but accuracy, punctuation, and consistency across apps still lag behind newer AI dictation tools.
Voicy is built for people who want faster, cleaner dictation in the apps they already use. It adds AI-powered speech-to-text with automatic punctuation, strong support for accents and technical terms, and direct typing into the active field, so writing on Windows feels simple again.
Windows 10 vs Windows 11: Speech to Text Compared
Windows 10 gives you basic Voice Typing through the Win+H shortcut. It works for simple dictation but has no automatic punctuation and limited accuracy — you have to say "comma" and "period" out loud. Windows 11 added Voice Access, a more powerful tool that lets you control your entire PC by voice. Voice Access is better for accessibility and hands-free navigation, but both still lack the AI-powered accuracy that modern tools offer.
Voicy works on both Windows 10 and Windows 11, bringing 99%+ accuracy and automatic punctuation to every app. Whether you are on the older or newer version of Windows, Voicy gives you the same experience — just install, set your shortcut, and start dictating anywhere.
