Sometimes, no matter how good your typing skills are, we speak faster than we write. That is why using a voice dictation tool that converts that audio to text can make things much easier for us.
Gone are the days when this was an exclusive novelty of a software called ViaVoice, but now there are a multitude of websites to dictate with your voice. We select the best.
Dictation.io
This online tool is based on voice recognition to write emails, documents in Google Chrome and many other utilities. Dictation can recognize and transcribe popular languages including English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Portuguese, Portuguese, Italian, Italian, Italian, French and more.
To help keep everything just right, you can add new paragraphs, punctuation marks, emoticons, and other special characters using simple voice commands . For example, saying “New line” to move the cursor to the next paragraph or saying “Smiley face” to insert an emoji.
SpeechTexter
SpeechTexter is a free multi-language speech conversion app that aims to help you with the transcription of any type of document, book, report or blog post using your voice.

In the case of Spanish, it is even capable of increasing precision depending on the type of dialect, between that of Spain, Chile, Argentina, etc. No download, installation or registration required. Just click the microphone button and start dictating.
