New Speech Recognition Extension for Edge Browser
Speech Recognition Anywhere has been available as a Chrome extension since 2016 and is available on the Chrome Web Store. Google’s Chrome browser was the first browser to have in-browser speech recognition capability using the JavaScript Web Speech API. Recently, Microsoft added voice recognition capability to its new Chromium-based Edge browser. It also uses the Web Speech API. The Speech Recognition Anywhere extension has been customized to work well with Edge as a browser add-on for desktop or laptop computers.
Speech Recognition Anywhere extends the capabilities of the Web Speech API in Chrome and Edge, to allow users to control the internet or fill out documents and forms using their voice. A user can use simple voice commands to access websites or click on buttons and links. It also works with Google Docs, Microsoft Word online, Gmail, outlook.com and more. Healthcare professionals use it to complete online medical records on the web. Business professionals use it to dictate letters and emails. Custom commands can be created by the user to allow the user to say shortcut phrases that automatically type lots of predefined text into a form.
