Speechify is excited to announce the launch of Speechify Voice Typing Dictation and new Voice AI Assistant capabilities in the Speechify Chrome Extension. Users can now talk naturally and Speechify will type for them anywhere they write online—including Google Docs, Gmail, and other browser-based editors. Voice Typing Dictation is completely free for all users.
With this update, users can write by speaking at a natural pace while Speechify removes filler words like “um” and “uh” and polishes the text automatically. Many users find that talking to their computer is a faster way to write, and Speechify’s voice typing is designed to make this process smoother and more efficient.
Speechify is also launching the ability to Talk to Speechify on any website. As users browse, Speechify can read the page they are on and answer questions in real time. Users can ask for help with tasks such as responding to emails, quizzing themselves on school readings, or getting summaries of articles without needing to read the entire page.
Over the past year, Speechify has expanded into a broader Voice AI Assistant that can read content out loud, generate personalized podcast-style audio from prompts and documents, type for users through free voice typing dictation, and answer questions directly on the pages users visit.
Speechify’s mission is to build a voice-first operating system that meets the needs of users who prefer voice as the primary interface. According to the announcement, many people want Voice AI to be central to their experience—not something hidden behind a separate tab.
Voice typing dictation and Voice AI Assistant features are also available on iOS/Android, Mac, Windows, and more, aligning with Speechify’s effort to provide a unified voice experience across devices and platforms.
In the future, Speechify plans to introduce agentic voice workflows, enabling the assistant to help with real-world tasks such as calling a doctor’s office, following up automatically if no one answers, or checking whether a store has an item in stock.
