Up and running in under 30 seconds

No setup, no configuration. Browser voice to text has never been this straightforward.

Step 01

Open the page

Navigate to Congero Transcribe in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari. No account required for the demo. Nothing is installed on your device.

Step 02

Grant mic permission

Your browser will ask for microphone access once. This is a standard browser permission — no app or extension handles your audio, only the browser tab itself.

Step 03

Speak, then copy

Words appear in the transcript area within 1–2 seconds of speaking. Click copy to grab the full text and paste it wherever you need it.

Dictate anywhere you normally type

Browser voice to text is a universal input layer. Speak your content in Congero, then paste into whatever tool your workflow uses.

Email drafting

Speak your next email at full conversational speed. Paste the transcript into Gmail, Outlook, or any mail client.

CRM notes

Dictate call notes straight after a customer interaction. Copy into Salesforce, HubSpot, or any CRM field.

Slack & Teams

Voice-compose a long update or reply. Faster than typing, especially on ideas that need nuance.

Document writing

Dictate into Word, Google Docs, or Notion. Speak a rough draft, refine it in your editor.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Built specifically for people who need high-accuracy browser voice to text without the overhead of installed software.

Works in any modern browser

Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari are fully supported. The entire product runs through standard web APIs — no extension required, no browser-specific hacks.

Microphone access only

We request your microphone only while you're actively recording. No persistent permissions, no background audio access, no data collected outside the session.

Near-live Whisper AI transcription

Audio is transcribed in near-real time using OpenAI's Whisper model via Faster-Whisper. Words appear within 1–2 seconds — fast enough to keep pace with natural speech.

Copy and paste anywhere

The transcript appears in an editable text area. One click copies everything to your clipboard, ready to paste into email, CRM, document editors, Slack, or any other app.

Zero audio retention

Audio and transcript data is processed in-memory and discarded immediately. Nothing is logged server-side. What you speak is never stored — not in a database, not in a log file.

Works on locked-down machines

No install means no IT approval needed. If your browser can open a website, it can run Congero Transcribe — even on the most restricted corporate laptops.

Your words stay yours.

Most transcription services store your audio and transcripts indefinitely. Congero is built differently — audio is processed in memory and discarded. Transcripts are never written to a database or log file. When your tab closes, everything is gone.

This matters for anyone dictating sensitive content — legal notes, medical information, financial data, or anything else you'd rather not have stored on a third-party server.

Frequently asked questions

Does browser voice to text work in all browsers?

Yes. Congero Transcribe works in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari on both desktop and mobile. It uses standard Web Audio API and WebSocket connections — no proprietary plugins or extensions are required.

Do I need to install anything to use voice to text in a browser?

Nothing is installed. Open the URL in any modern browser, grant microphone permission when prompted, and start speaking. It works on Windows, macOS, Linux, and any OS that runs a modern browser — including locked-down corporate laptops.

How accurate is browser-based voice to text?

Congero Transcribe is powered by OpenAI Whisper, the state-of-the-art speech recognition model, delivered via Faster-Whisper for near-real-time speed. It handles diverse accents, technical vocabulary, and natural conversational speech with high accuracy — significantly better than browser-native speech recognition APIs.

Is my audio or transcript data stored anywhere?

No. Audio is processed in-memory and discarded immediately after transcription. Transcript content is never logged or stored server-side. Your dictated content never leaves the processing pipeline.

Can I use browser voice to text on a locked-down work laptop?

Yes. Because nothing is installed — no application, no browser extension, no admin rights required — Congero Transcribe does not trigger corporate security policies. If your browser can load a website, it can run the transcription service.

How much latency is there between speaking and seeing the transcript?

Words typically appear within 1–2 seconds of speaking. The service processes overlapping audio windows at approximately 0.9-second intervals using Faster-Whisper inference, giving a near-live transcription experience.
