A Personal Assistant for the PC
With Dragon, users say words and they appear on the computer screen--three times faster than typing--with up to 99-percent accuracy right out of the box. You can even personalize Dragon with custom word lists and formatting preferences. Dragon gets more accurate over time as it learns your word choices and writing style.
More Accurate than ever Before
New! Dragon 11 Premium delivers significantly improved accuracy, reducing recognition errors by up to 15-percent over Dragon 10. Plus, it detects hardware resources and automatically sets up the recommended configuration for optimal performance.
Control Your Computer by Voice
New! More Dragon Voice Shortcuts: Just say what you want to do, and Dragon does it. In addition to simple commands that create email, schedule appointments, and search the Web or desktop, now you can use "Search [website] for [xyz]" commands to conduct specific searches on Facebook.com, MySpace.com, Twitter, IRS.gov, and the Nuance technical KnowledgeBase.
Custom Commands: Dragon works the way you work. Users can create custom voice commands--quickly and easily--to insert frequently used text and/or graphics for dramatic time savings.
Be More Creative and Productive--Anywhere
Dragon keeps up with users' brains, instantly transforming ideas into text--with no typos. So you can focus on content instead of typing and spelling for higher quality, more detailed results. For optimal convenience, you can:
Stand up, pace, or cross the room--there's no need to be tethered to your PC when you use Dragon with a wireless headset.
Dictate notes using a digital voice recorder to capture thoughts while they're still fresh in your mind. And training recorders has never been easier!
New! Creating a user profile for a digital voice recorder has never been faster or easier. Plus, Dragon 11 Premium now directly accepts more audio file formats.
Easy to Use
New! The Dragon Sidebar allows users to discover and access key commands and tips by putting them in one convenient desktop location. Its content automatically changes depending on which window is currently active.
Dragon Premium works with just about any Windows application--Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, Internet Explorer, OpenOffice Writer, and more--making the applications you rely on every day faster and easier to use.
Create documents, spreadsheets, and email; schedule appointments; or search the Web--just by talking!
