If you are using a client information system, you can dictate directly into the system fields and see the text appear within them. Philips SpeechLive also offers integrations with iManage. Please book a demo and ask the Philips representative for more information on how to take advantage of the synergy between the two systems.
What are Nuance Dragon auto-text templates?
Nuance Dragon auto-text templates are pre-defined text templates that users can create and insert into their documents using voice commands. These templates allow users to quickly and efficiently generate repetitive or standardized content, such as emails, reports, and forms, by simply speaking a designated command, thereby saving time and enhancing productivity.
How accurate is Nuance Dragon software?
Nuance Dragon software is known for its high level of accuracy in speech recognition, boasting recognition rates of up to 99%. The accuracy can vary depending on factors such as the quality of the audio input, background noise, speaker's accent, and individual speaking style. This is why we recommend you use our solution with dedicated Philips dictation microphones, such as the Philips SpeechMike Premium
Over time, with proper training by correcting and adding words to a user’s speech profile, the software can achieve even higher levels of accuracy.
How to use Dragon speech recognition with Philips SpeechLive?
Nuance Dragon speech recognition offers two main ways to simplify your work. First, you can dictate directly into your favorite applications. Simply place your mouse cursor in any text field, speak, and watch as your words appear instantly within any Windows program, such as Office, case management, or CRM software. This direct dictation feature allows you to create and edit text in real time, making it ideal for immediate documentation needs.
Additionally, in combination with Philips SpeechLive, Nuance Dragon can automatically transcribe audio files recorded on a smartphone app, via web browser, or uploaded from a dictation device. This approach links each audio file to its transcribed text, streamlining the workflow between authors and assistants for quick corrections and finalization.
Is Nuance Dragon speech recognition available for Mac computers?
Not all features are currently available for Mac users. To use real-time speech recognition, where you can dictate directly into applications, you’ll need to install the Nuance DragonBar—a small software tool—on your computer. However, this tool is only compatible with Windows PCs. Mac users can instead use the transcription feature, which allows audio files recorded via a smartphone app, web browser, or dictation device to be converted into text.
