// about this tool

SHRP's speech-to-text tool converts your spoken words into text in real time. The microphone mode uses the Web Speech API built into your browser — no data is ever sent to any server. It is completely private and completely free.

Use it for voice typing, dictation, quick notes, meeting thoughts, interview prep, lecture notes, and even WhatsApp voice notes that you play aloud into your microphone. If you already have a recorded file, use the audio-to-text converter instead.

// tips for better accuracy

speak clearly and at a moderate pace
reduce background noise — close windows, turn off fans
use a good microphone — built-in laptop mics work but a headset is better
speak closer to your microphone
use chrome or edge for best web speech api support
for accents or technical vocabulary, use the file upload feature for better accuracy
