Standard speech recognition
Creates text that stays close to the words spoken. This suits traditional dictation where the author speaks punctuation and structure, or where a typist will complete the final document against the original audio.
SpeechLive AI Speech Recognition
Dictate live at the cursor on Windows or Mac, use real-time recognition on mobile or in SpeechLive, or record first and process the audio in the background. Choose a standard transcript, Smart Transcript, Smart Refine, multi-speaker output, summaries or advanced insights.
Available with SpeechLive Pro and SpeechLive Enterprise. Hosted in Australia on Microsoft Azure, with VoiceX onboarding, training and support included.

Five ways to use SpeechLive AI speech recognition
Your dictations, meetings, interviews and conversations automatically transcribed from speech-to-text with SpeechLive AI Speech Recognition


1. Real-time speech recognition on Windows and Mac
The SpeechLive Desktop App provides an always-available speech recognition control. Place the cursor in a supported text field and speak. The recognised text is inserted where the document is being created.

2. Background and deferred speech recognition
Background recognition is ideal when the author does not want to remain at the computer while the document is created. Record naturally, submit the audio and continue with other work.

3. Live recognition in the SpeechLive Browser Recorder
Record a dictation, meeting, interview or conversation in SpeechLive while the text appears live. Because the original audio is retained, the result can be checked immediately or routed for correction.

4. Recorded speech recognition from the Mobile App
Capture dictations, meetings, interviews, consultations or conversations in the SpeechLive Mobile App and submit the recording for recognition within the SpeechLive workflow.

5. Real-time speech recognition on mobile
The SpeechLive Mobile App can convert speech to text while the user dictates, making it practical to create content away from the computer without waiting for background processing.

Choose the output that suits the recording
Traditional dictation, a client meeting and a multi-person interview require different outputs. SpeechLive lets the user choose how the recording should be processed.

Creates text that stays close to the words spoken. This suits traditional dictation where the author speaks punctuation and structure, or where a typist will complete the final document against the original audio.

Applies punctuation and basic text formatting to create a cleaner, easier-to-read transcript while keeping the spoken content recognisable.

Improves grammar, punctuation and readability while preserving the original meaning. Users can select a professional business or legal style.

Separates speakers and adds time-coded speaker sections, making meetings, interviews, consultations and group discussions easier to follow.

Quick Recap provides a short overview for rapid understanding. Detailed Summary extracts the essential points and presents the main content in a structured form.

Identifies important topics, tasks and possible follow-up actions from longer recordings, providing a useful starting point for professional review.
Human-in-the-loop review
SpeechLive can retain the original recording alongside the recognised text. That gives the author, administrator, assistant or typist a reliable source for checking names, details and wording before the document is approved or used.
