Dictation for every student. No barriers, no complexity.
TalkType gives Disability Services and Accessibility offices at colleges and universities a simple, scalable dictation solution for students with accomodations. It works on any device and is straightforward to deploy and manage across campus.
Moving beyond legacy dictation
For years, Windows-only software like Dragon was the only option for institutional dictation. But modern campuses need more flexibility.
Unlike Dragon, TalkType is device-agnostic. It works seamlessly on Macs, Chromebooks, and PCs without complex local installs.
Move past “voice training” sessions. TalkType delivers leading accuracy from the very first word.
Stop managing individual license keys for specific laptops. With SSO integration, your students’ accommodations follow them to the library, the dorm, and the lecture hall.
Built for institutional deployment
TalkType is built to slot into the way your institution already works. It is easy for students to access, simple for IT to manage, and flexible enough to support different subjects, devices, and compliance requirements, without adding admin overhead.
Works across every device and platform
TalkType runs on Windows, Mac, Chromebook, iOS, and Android, through the browser, with no software to install. Students can access it on whatever device they use, without IT involvement.
Admin Hub for license management
Manage license allocation, and reassign licenses as your caseload changes, all from a central admin dashboard. No manual processes, no spreadsheets.
Custom vocabulary
TalkType can be configured with discipline-specific terminology across medicine, law, engineering, and other fields, so it works accurately for students regardless of their subject area.
Single Sign-On (SSO)
Students and staff log in with their existing institutional credentials. No separate accounts to create or manage, and full alignment with your IT policies.
FERPA-aligned data practices
Student dictations and documents are private and accessible only to the individual user. Student data is never used to train AI models. Our operations are ISO 27001 certified.
TalkType is designed to support institutions in meeting their ADA and Section 504 accessibility obligations, and works alongside existing accommodation plans rather than replacing them.
