| Dragon NaturallySpeaking Home speech recognition software lets you interact with your PC just by talking! It understands what you say and how you say it. Speak words and they appear on the screen — three times faster than typing.
Tell your PC what to do and it does it. Use your favorite applications to create documents and email, surf the Web, update Facebook, and more. Dragon Home is so fast, easy and fun; you’ll wonder how you managed without it!
Stop Typing, Start Talking
Because typing is slow, sometimes it’s hard for the keyboard to keep up with your brain. With Dragon Home, you can say words and watch them appear on your computer screen in OpenOffice Writer, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Outlook, Internet Explorer, and more.
Speak Commands and Your Computer Obeys
Just tell your computer what you want to do, such as ”Delete line,” “Copy that,” “Make that red,” or “Open Microsoft Word,” and Dragon will complete the task. The Dragon Sidebar lets you see important voice commands and tips at anytime without interrupting what you’re doing.
Enjoy a Personalized Experience
Dragon Home recognizes how you talk and what you say. It learns your voice better over time—even if you have an accent. You can personalize Dragon with your own word and formatting preferences tailored to what you do and how you do it.

Multi-task Like Never Before
Dragon Voice Shortcuts make it faster and easier than ever to create email, schedule appointments, and search the Web for specific information or resources at anytime.
