We’re excited to announce a major update to our pricing: Voice Writer now offers a forever-free tier with unlimited usage that gives everyone access to our core features with no time limit, no usage caps.

How does Voice Writer turn speech into grammatically correct writing in real time? Most voice apps record everything first and only process it afterward. Voice Writer works differently: we use streaming ASR and LLMs to deliver sub-second latency as you speak. In this post, we’ll walk through the real-time architecture that enables low latency, high reliability, and the ability to seamlessly swap out speech providers as better models become available.

Voice Writer now understands you in over 30 languages. Whether you're writing in English, Korean, or Portuguese, you can now speak your thoughts, and we'll turn them into polished, grammatically correct text.

Everyone writes differently—and you shouldn’t have to sound like the same AI as everyone else. With today's update, you now have more control over how your writing sounds. Choose between standard (a clear, polished tone suitable for most professional writing), casual (a more relaxed and conversational tone), or a custom tone that you define, based on your own writing style.

Not all writing is the same - sometimes, you need a polished, professional tone for an important document, and other times, a casual, friendly style works better. In this update, we are introducing customizable writing tone and AI model selection!

Speech-to-text technology has improved dramatically in recent years, but with so many options available, which API delivers the best accuracy? In this benchmark, I test and compare the major speech recognition APIs, including cloud-based services from AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure, two startups specializing in ASR: Assembly AI and Deepgram, the open-source OpenAI Whisper model, and Google Gemini, a large language model that can process speech input.

One long-awaited feature we're excited to roll out is multi-document editing! Voice Writer now allows you to work on unlimited documents at the same time. If you have notes for different projects or just want to keep your ideas organized, you can now use different documents and keep your writing style separate depending on the project.

Writing just got easier—Voice Writer now polishes your grammar in real time as you speak, with near-zero latency! No extra steps, no delays—just seamless, polished writing as you dictate. Here’s what it looks like in action:

Chrome extensions are incredibly popular tools that enhance your browser's functionality. You probably have a bunch of them installed - these extensions can do things like store passwords, manage tabs, change words on a webpage as you type, block ads, and more and go beyond what the usual website security model allows. Given how much sensitive and personal data your browser stores (browsing history, passwords, and banking credentials, etc) how does a browser ensure the security of extensions? That’s what this post will cover: The Chrome Extension Permission System.

Excited to announce the launch of the Voice Writer Chrome Extension, now available on the Chrome Web Store! With this extension, you can use Voice Writer’s powerful speech-to-text and grammar correction capabilities directly on any website, making writing faster and easier than ever before.

Voice Writer has a fresh new look! Taking inspiration from modern text editor designs and user feedback, we’ve redesigned our interface to create a minimalist and distraction-free experience. Here's what it looks like now:

A quick Voice Writer update: you can now fix grammar while preserving the original formatting of your document! This means your document structure remains untouched, while your writing gets the polish it needs.

Recently I've been using Voice Writer every day to write everything from emails and Slack updates to blog posts and other documents. But just how much faster does it make me? That’s what I set out to measure today with a little experiment.

Writing is hard. Sometimes, you have the perfect idea in your head, but getting it into words can feel like an uphill battle. That’s writer’s block—it takes time and effort to transform messy thoughts into polished, coherent writing. And all the time spent fixing grammar and formatting, and the whole process feels like a chore.
