On Windows, you can dictate in pretty much any language, for free, not only in Chrome, but also in any text field in Windows, using this amazing little tool:

https://voicenotebook.com/

Make sure you check:

[✔] Transfer to clipboard
[✔] OS integration (off)

You can then dictate some text, afterwards you will hear a short beep. Your dictation will now be on your clipboard, ready to be pasted into any text field (with Ctrl+V).

Incidentally, I own a full, up-to-date copy of Dragon Individual Professional, but am not happy how it slows down my (very powerful) computer. With voicenotebook.com I can also only dictate in English with my copy of Dragon, whereas I can now dictate in English and Dutch.

Ridiculously low-fee Aug 27, 2021

Been using this service for three-four yers now.
I strongly suggest registering and paying the ridiculously low yearly fee to enable the "OS integration" feature, which allows you to dictate directly to wherever you put your cursor on, including CAT tools.

Doesn't seem to work for me Mar 21

Hi!
I tried dictating in Polish, but for some reason, the text disappears. Anyone know why that happens? Thanks in advance.
