BlabbyAI Speech to text

BlabbyAI Speech to text is free to start, with one hour of transcription time included and premium plans needed once you go past that.

The hour is a modest allowance, so heavy dictation will push you onto a paid tier fairly quickly.

BlabbyAI Speech to text is a speech-to-text tool that lets you write with your voice on more than 50,000 websites instead of typing.

It supports over 90 languages and a range of accents, and the text comes back with punctuation, capitalization and grammar already applied.

Custom modes let you adjust how the transcription behaves to suit the way you write.

On privacy, voice data is not stored after transcription.

The main catch is browser coverage: one user has asked for Safari support, which suggests BlabbyAI Speech to text does not yet work there.

If you write mostly in a supported browser and want to cut down on typing, the free hour is enough to find out whether dictation suits you.
