Nuance Communications has unveiled Dragon Dictate for Mac version 2.0, which includes Dragon

NaturallySpeaking for the PC and Dragon Mobile Apps.

Dragon Dictate for Mac is designed to make it easier to create documents and emails, search the web, navigate the Mac desktop and interact with popular Mac applications all by voice.

Version 2.0 is said to improve on the accuracy and performance of previous versions using the new Dragon 11 engine.

“Recognising the important opportunity within the Mac community, we set out earlier this year to bring Dragon to the Mac, working closely with our experts from the MacSpeech team, and drawing on our history and proven success with Dragon,” said Peter Mahoney, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Dragon at Nuance.

“We’ve maintained the elements of Dictate that are most important to our Mac customers, such as the native Mac interface, and integrated many features of Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11 to bring improved accuracy as well as smarter command and control capabilities to this discerning audience of new Dragon customers,” he added.

Dragon Dictate for Mac is available now from US$289.95 via the MacSpeech website.
