Spanish voice typing options on most platforms default to one dialect (usually Castilian or Mexican) and mishear the others. Our speech-to-text tool uses an AI model trained on broad Spanish-speaking data, so Mexican, Castilian, Argentine, Colombian, Chilean, Puerto Rican, and other dialects all transcribe well. Auto-detects from 99 languages, so you don't pick — just speak.

Free, no signup, no cap. Works in any browser on any device.

Step-by-Step

  1. Open the tool in any browser.
  2. Tap record, allow mic access.
  3. Start speaking in Spanish — any dialect.
  4. Text appears in Spanish with correct accents (á, é, í, ó, ú, ñ) and punctuation (¿, ¡).

For mixed Spanish-English content, speak naturally — the auto-detect switches languages cleanly.

Dictate in Spanish, Get English Text

Flip to Translate mode. Speak Spanish; English text appears. Practical applications:

Translation quality for Spanish→English is among the strongest of any language pair — model was trained on massive Spanish-English parallel data. Expect near-native output for conversational Spanish.

Accents and Punctuation in Spanish Output

The model handles Spanish punctuation better than most tools:

Some cleanup is always needed for formal writing — but the baseline output is much cleaner than typing Spanish on an English keyboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it distinguish between usted and tú forms?

The transcript reflects what you said — if you use usted forms, output has usted forms. The model doesn't change formality.

What about Spanglish (mixed Spanish-English)?

Handled cleanly by auto-detect. Each word gets transcribed in its source language. Natural for bilingual speakers.

Is it better than Apple's Spanish dictation?

Apple's Spanish dictation is decent for short bursts in supported regions. The browser tool has broader dialect coverage and no session timeout — better for long-form writing.

Can it handle Catalan or Galician?

Yes — both are among the 99 languages. They auto-detect separately from Spanish.

Works on my Mexican Spanish keyboard?

It doesn't use any keyboard — it's a webpage that captures audio. Whatever keyboard you have doesn't matter; only your spoken Spanish matters.
