    simple, too. Natural-sounding Text-to-Speech reads editable text for
    easy proofing or multi-tasking. Dragon adapts to your voice and the
    words you use to deliver better recognition results over time.
  • You can even personalize Dragon with your own custom
    vocabulary of acronyms, proper names and other unique phrases that you
    frequently use.

    dictated text looks the way you want it to every time.

IGNITE EFFICIENCY WITH VOICE-DRIVEN MULTITASKING

    tasks and appointments, and search your computer faster than ever
    before.

What’s New

There are many new features, improvements and
enhancements in Dragon NaturallySpeaking Premium 13.

Even More Accurate

  • Improved Accuracy: Dragon 13
    delivers a substantial improvement in out-of-box accuracy compared to
    Dragon 12.5. This means that Dragon gets you, and you get things done,
    faster than ever. And when you do need to make a correction, Dragon
    learns, making it more accurate the more that you use it.

Faster Than Ever

  • Faster Processors Yield Faster Performance:
    If you use Dragon on a computer with multi-core processors and more
    than 4 GB of RAM, Dragon 12 automatically selects the BestMatch V
    speech model for you when you create your user profile in order to
    deliver faster performance.
  • Better performance: Dragon 13
    boosts performance by delivering easier correction and editing options,
    and giving you more control over your command preferences, letting you
    get things done faster than ever before.

Enhanced Web Mail

  • Enhanced Experience with Gmail and Hotmail:
    Dragon 13 enhances the experience of using your voice with two of the
    most popular web-based email applications — Gmail and Hotmail —
    offering Full Text Control and commands for the most frequent actions
    in Internet Explorer 9, Mozilla Firefox 12 or higher, and Google Chrome
    16 or higher.

Interactive Tutorial

  • Interactive Tutorial: Proposed
    at the end of profile creation and available any time from the Help
    menu, the Interactive Tutorial in Dragon 13 offers short progressive
    simulations to help you practice good dictation, correction and editing
    habits so that you can create text efficiently within just a few
    minutes. Even experienced Dragon users can benefit from the Interactive
    Tutorial.

Wideband Bluetooth Support

  • Enhanced Bluetooth Support:
    Dragon 13 adds support for wideband Bluetooth wireless headset
    microphones, and you can get up and running quickly. When it detects
    that the USB dongle of a certified microphone is plugged into the PC,
    Dragon 13 offers “Enhanced Bluetooth” as an audio source type and does
    not require a script reading to get started. (Available in Premium
    Edition and above).

Smart Format Rules

  • Smart Format Rules: Dragon now
    reaches out to you to adapt upon detecting your format corrections –
    abbreviations, numbers, and more — so your dictated text looks the way
    you want it to every time.

More Natural Text-to-Speech

  • More Natural Text-to-Speech Voice:
    Dragon 12’s natural-sounding Text-To-Speech reads editable text—with
    fast-forward, rewind and speed and volume control—for easy proofing and
    multi-tasking. (Available in Home Edition and Above).

Faster Correction

  • Correction: When it comes to
    correcting a word or phrase, Dragon now includes more choices to make
    it quicker and easier to make a change.

Dragon Remote Mic – Now for Android

  • Dragon Remote Microphone App for iOS and now
    Android:
    Dragon 13 lets you go wireless with an iOS or
    Android device and the free Dragon Remote Microphone App. Turn your
    compatible iPhone, iPod touch (4th gen), iPad or Android device into a
    wireless microphone for use with Dragon over a WiFi network. And it’s

    to scan the barcode that Dragon 13 provides on-screen. (Available in
    Home Edition and above).
