## What is Speakeasy AI Dictation?

Speakeasy is a dictation app and keyboard that gives you the most accurate, powerful speech-to-text on the market. And with our custom keyboard, you can dictate directly into any app with just 1 tap.

Now with Smart Commands with GPT-4o: tell AI to write for you, edit your current dictation, etc.

*5x faster than typing*: uses AI for the most accurate dictation on the market—so good you’ll never need to review or edit.

*Use in any app*: Keyboard extension to use dictation in any app - capture quick notes and to-dos, reply to messages, transcribe lectures and interviews.

*Smart Commands with GPT-4o*: Say the keyword “Speakeasy” while dictating to give an AI command to:
    - Write for you: "Speakeasy write an email rejecting a recruiter but saying let's stay in touch"
    - Edit your dictation: Ramble, then say "Speakeasy summarize that"
    - Reformat: Say your grocery list, then “Speakeasy make that bullet points”
    - Or anything else you would ask GPT: “Speakeasy write a poem”, “Speakeasy fact check what I just said”

*Edit Transcripts with AI*: You can now effortlessly improve and transform your transcripts with the power of GPT-4o. Apply AI commands to your transcriptions at the touch of a button: Summarize, improve writing, create an outline, extract action items, or do a custom dictated command.

*AI Cleanup*: Removes filler words, mistakes, and repeats. Writes what you mean, not what you say, even when speaking off the cuff. “I’m heading to the um, market, to the grocery store… Anything you want?” → “I’m heading to the grocery store. Is there anything you want?”

*Smart Punctuation and Grammar*: Automatically adds the right punctuation so that your writing is grammatically correct. No need to say “Quotes”, “Period”, “Comma”.

*30+ languages and accents, regional spelling support
--- Supported languages: Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English (Australia), English (UK and Ireland), English (India), English (New Zealand), English (USA), Estonian, Flemish, French (France), French (Canada), German (Germany and Austria), German (Swiss), Greek, Hindi, Hindi (Latinized), Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Portugal), Portuguese (Brazil), Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish (General), Spanish (Latin America), Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese

*** From some of our happy users ***

“I used it to dictate a presentation on my way to work Tuesday. My boss called it a ‘mic drop speech!’ It was a lifesaver. I was so short on time and knew I could dictate on my way there.” —Kaitlin O

“Oh my god. I think it's it makes a huge difference you guys have auto editing for punctuation. I literally have not had to edit one transcription. When on Apple I have to do it almost every time.” —Lida T.

“It's world-class and I use it tons (much better than Gboard dictation)” —Louis A.

### 3/5 — Was working great

*2026-07-20, version 3.1.0*

I down loaded this app to record a convention it was amazing. Now it’s not working not sure if I’m supposed to email and print off meetings and clear the app out.

### 1/5 — Continually fails

*2026-06-22, version 3.1.0*

I really liked to Speakeasy in the beginning, and I thought it was exactly what I was looking for. But it repeatedly fails when I am recording, and will completely lose all of my progress. It is so frustrating to speak for 5 or 10 minutes, expecting everything to be recorded only to have it say “transcription error”. Ugh! If I can’t trust it, I won’t use it!

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2026-06-01, version 3.1.0*

After I update my iPad to the latest iPad OS, this AI app does not work once again. Please help to fix this bug. This app used to be very good.

### 1/5 — Speakeasy serves Apple cider

*2025-11-08, version 3.1.0*

Speakeasy may be a Hilite bit better than Siri but not enough to fool with, IMHO. That’s a good example. What I dictated was speakeasy may be a little better…

I miss Dragon NaturallySpeaking. Back in the day, it ran circled All of the modern so-called transcription apps. What I dictated was … it ran circles around all of the modern …

I rest my case .

### 1/5 — Tedious with constant failures

*2025-04-18, version 3.1.0*

I tried to write this using the app, but it just kept failing. It either posted nothing, or said there was an error. So basically I just waste a lot of time kicking out to the other screen having it fail and trying again. When it does work it is better than the default dictation system but with how tedious it is, it’s definitely not worth six dollars a month.

Edit: a few major issues. 1. It doesn’t work in a lot of apps for instance, the App Store. I basically get a button that’s red but no start stop options. 2. Having to wait to go back on my iPhone 16 Pro Max is quite painful. The app back button is not available for usually 5 to 10 seconds upon reaching that screen. 3. This really should be integrated with the keyboard. While it’s better than the default dictation there are still errors everywhere and having to continually switch keyboards after each entry is annoying.  I’m going to keep testing!

### 5/5 — Truly the best of the best

*2025-01-11, version 3.1.0*

This app truly is remarkable, it understands me with great accuracy and brilliantly improves my words, phrases, and vocabulary automatically

### 5/5 — Works very well

*2025-01-11, version 3.1.0*

Amazing tool.  I just wish it saved a temporary history of recordings as a backup for when things don’t go smoothly (rare, but occasionally happens)

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-01-10*

I purchased 1 year worth of subscription for this app since December 2024. Everything was working fine until 2 days ago. The app no longer transcribed speech to text anymore. Whenever i use the app, its stuck at the screen showing transcribing for a while. After that it shows an error message. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the app but nothing works. This error occurs after i update my ipadOS to the most current version.

**Developer response:** Hi, I'm so sorry about the bug - we just managed to fix it. 

There was an update to an OpenAI library we used that caused a silent error. I really apologise that it took us a couple of days to fix. 

Message me at help@speakeasydictation.com and let me know what we can do to make it right.

### 5/5 — The most powerful AI dictation,  1

*2024-11-19*

Hands of the best that I’ve ever used and I’ve tried a lot of these apps and none of them come close to this I will be telling everybody about this app and I hope this app is around for long time

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2024-10-12, version 3.1.0*

I enjoyed playing around with this app. I found it entertaining to convert texts to sound as if they had been written by a variety of different people. It has become helpful in the workplace as well. I tell it to rewrite my emails or texts to sound more professional and courteous.

I have found that sometimes it waters down my political views to make them sound more neutral.
