Announcing New Release: Dragon NaturallySpeaking 13 Premium

DNS-PREMIUM-13Transparent.pngNuance has released Dragon NaturallySpeaking 13 Premium - the fastest and most accurate speech recognition software available for the PC.  Now you can navigate, command and control your PC by voice and complete correspondence faster
with accurate dictation in email, Microsoft Word, social media and popular web applications.

If you have not used Dragon NaturallySpeaking before, you will find the software gets smarter as it automatically adapts to how you speak and the words and phrases you use most.  You will get more done in a shorter amount of time because speaking is much faster than typing.  Words actually appear on the screen three times faster than typing.  You command your computer with statements like, "Click Go", "Press Enter", and "Search email for..." and the computer responds to your voice.


Current Dragon users will find the following enhancements in Dragon 13:

  • Microphone Support Options including using internal microphones already built-in to many of the latest laptops.
  • Automatic Microphone detection - simply select your preference and start speaking.
  • Voice commands and Full Text Control in popular web applications.  Use it in Gmail, Outlook.com, and Yahoo in Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer.

“Dragon NaturallySpeaking 13 offers increased accuracy, improved design and flexibility, and a robust web experience – and that adds up to a more intuitive and productive experience for customers,” said Peter Mahoney, Nuance’s chief marketing officer and general manager for Dragon. “Dragon continues to serve as a complete voice solution for the PC, capable of impressive performance across programs, browsers and applications. Both new and longtime users of Dragon will find their interactions with the PC completely transformed, as they use their voice to get more things done in a faster and more natural way.”
