Speech recognition software products like Dragon use the human voice as the main interface between the user and the computer. Millions of users turn to Dragon each day to make PC interaction easier, faster and more fun. Users can dictate and edit in virtually any Windows application, including Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and AOL. This revolutionary and easy-to-use product gives users everything they need to get started, including a high-quality headset.

Turn Talk Into Text



Accurate Speech Recognition for PC Applications
Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Standard offers unprecedented speech recognition with unrivaled accuracy levels: it's up to 20% more accurate than Version 9, with up to 50% more accurate results than the product delivered just five years ago. Users gain the added benefit of avoiding spelling errors and typing mistakes. In fact, the product actually learns from corrections over time.

Works With the Applications Users Already Have
Dictate directly into Microsoft Word and most other Microsoft Office applications running on Microsoft Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows Vista. Dragon also supports popular programs such as Corel WordPerfect, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and AOL. Navigate the desktop by voice: launch or switch applications, save or print documents, and more--even control menus and dialog boxes.

Create and Edit Documents and Messages
Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 introduces new graphical icons to enhance the DragonBar user interface, making the product even easier to use.

Users can quickly add custom words, such as proper names, to the system's vocabulary.

Quick Voice Formatting commands allow users to issue a single voice command, such as "Bold Quick Voice Formatting" to make deleting and formatting text faster than ever. In addition, unique Natural Language Commands mean users don't have to memorize complex instructions. In Word, for example, a user can say, "make that bigger," and the font size increases instantly.

With the automatic punctuation option, users can omit spoken periods and commas during dictation--Dragon NaturallySpeaking enters them automatically.

Send Email, Instant Messages and Surf the Web--All by Voice
Users can browse the Internet with ease: search the Web, access information and navigate Web pages, simply by speaking URLs and links.

User Benefits



Faster than Typing
Most people speak more than 120 per minute but type less than 40 words a minute. That means users can create documents and email messages more than three times faster using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Standard. The software never makes a spelling mistake, and it actually gets smarter the more it's used.

Fun and Easy to Use--Get Started Right Away
Dragon NaturallySpeaking installs quickly and requires no special script reading. New on-screen help and tutorials help users become experts in no time. Users can dictate letters and emails instantly! A comfortable, high-quality headset is included.

Avoid Repetitive Strain Injuries
By using voice to control the PC and create documents, users reduce their risk of developing repetitive strain injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Darn good product. Makes it easy to be an Author
Dragon version 10 standard is a genuine bargain deal. I'm very happy with it. Not being a typist, I used version 8 since 2006 to write my 1st two books for Sybex/John Wiley & Sons.

Dragon v.10 is the first thing I purchased once the contract arrived to write my new 3rd edition book. It's sooo much easier than typing, but my total accuracy is about 92% due to my own speech/pronunciation issues. The factory supplied headset included in the $40 package works just fine, so I found no need ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Dragon NaturallySpeaking
This product has been very helpful. I am still having improved function. It does take time to get the right words but the more I work with it the better I do. Overall it has been a real time-saver.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - must have for paperwork
This is a great tool. Well worth the $$$. Even if you have to pay yourself (I had to) Makes the mountain of papers that is required as my "professional obligation" outside of the work day more managable. Definate stress reduction tool.
Individual plans which take 4 hours w/o this, now take 1.5. Don't let the boss know, I am sure she will find a new way to fill that other 2.5 hours in "data recording" items. After all in the humanities, it is now all about the data not the person.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - sad
Since one must have internet connectivity to get this to function why bother putting it on a CD? Should be sold as a download (would at least be "greener"). The machine I use is never connected to the internet and other machines I have access to do not allow one to have administrator privileges so the downloads they requre cannot be performed. I missed all of this stuff when considering the purchase, ya got me, my fault, "buyer beware". On the plus side I bought it as a gold box deal so I'm only out about ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Dragon is nice!
I absolutely love Dragon, I am using it to type this review. I'm still getting used to it but it is fast and fairly accurate. I would recommend it to anyone.
