Voice to Text for Grammarly Users

Grammarly catches your grammar mistakes and improves your writing. But first you need words to check. That's where most people get stuck. Blurt lets you hold a button, speak your thoughts, and release. Your text appears instantly, ready for Grammarly to analyze. No staring at blank screens, no hunting for the right words. Just talk, draft, then edit. Drafting and editing become separate steps instead of one painful process.

The Typing Problem

The blank page is the real enemy, not your grammar

Grammarly is ready. The green G sits in the corner waiting to help. But you're staring at an empty text field with nothing to check. The cursor blinks. You type a sentence, delete it. Type another, delete that too. Grammarly can only fix what exists. Getting words out of your head and into the text field is the hard part nobody talks about.

Editing while drafting kills both activities

You write a sentence. Grammarly underlines something. You stop to fix it. Now you've lost your train of thought. You try to pick up where you left off, but the flow is gone. Fixing grammar mid-draft is like checking your phone mid-conversation. You end up with fragmented thoughts and take three times as long to finish.

Typing speed bottlenecks your ideas

You know exactly what you want to say. You could explain it perfectly if someone asked you out loud. But your fingers move at sixty words per minute while your brain runs at one hundred fifty. By the time you finish typing the first paragraph, you've forgotten the nuance you wanted in the third. The ideas that seemed vivid are now fuzzy.

Quick messages still take too long to compose

A colleague asks a simple question. The answer is two sentences. But composing those two sentences takes five minutes because you're typing, rereading, editing, second-guessing. By the time you hit send, you've spent more time writing the response than the question deserved. Quick composition should feel quick.

You avoid writing tasks because drafting is exhausting

That email you need to send sits in your task list for days. Not because you don't know what to say, but because typing it out feels like work. You tell yourself you'll get to it later, when you have more energy. The task pile grows. Writing becomes something you procrastinate instead of just do.

How It Works

Blurt turns drafting and editing into two separate steps. Talk first to get words on the page, then let Grammarly refine them. Works anywhere Grammarly works: email, documents, messages, forms.

1

Click into any text field

Put your cursor in an email, document, message, or form. Anywhere Grammarly can check.

2

Hold your hotkey and speak your draft

Press your chosen key, talk naturally like you would to a person. Say everything you want to say without stopping.

3

Release and let Grammarly take over

Your spoken words appear as text. Grammarly immediately starts checking. Now you edit with words already on the page.

Real Scenarios

Quick replies that don't break your focus

A message pops up asking if you're available for a call tomorrow. Simple question, simple answer. Hold the button, say 'Yes, tomorrow afternoon works for me. How about 2 PM your time? I'll send a calendar invite.' Release. Grammarly confirms it looks good. Sent. Back to your real work in fifteen seconds.

Long-form documents that used to take hours

You're writing a proposal, a report, or documentation. The outline is in your head. Instead of typing section by section, talk through each section like you're presenting it to someone. Fill five pages with spoken content in twenty minutes. Then go back with Grammarly and refine. Total time cut in half because the drafting phase didn't require editing.

Cover letters and applications with authentic voice

Job applications require writing that sounds like you. Typing makes you stiff and formal. But when you talk about your experience, your personality comes through. Speak your cover letter like you're telling a friend why you're excited about this role. The authentic voice survives, and Grammarly just cleans up the mechanics.

Social media posts and comments that actually get written

You have an opinion on a post, but typing a thoughtful comment feels like too much effort. So you scroll past. With Blurt, hold the button and say your take. Ten seconds of talking produces a comment worth posting. Grammarly catches any issues. You contribute instead of lurking.

Creative writing when the internal editor needs to shut up

Writers know the internal editor is loudest during drafting. Every sentence gets second-guessed. Voice bypasses this. Talk your story, your blog post, your essay. Get the ugly first draft out fast. Then bring in Grammarly for the second pass. The internal editor only gets to work on editing, not drafting.

Meeting follow-ups while memory is fresh

The meeting just ended. You need to send a summary. The details are vivid now but will fade in an hour. Hold the button and talk through what was discussed: decisions made, action items assigned, open questions. Release. Grammarly cleans it up. Send within five minutes of the meeting ending while everything is still fresh.

Grammarly helps you write better. Blurt helps you start writing. They work together, not against each other.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Blurt replace Grammarly?
No. Blurt and Grammarly do completely different things. Blurt gets words out of your head and into a text field using voice. Grammarly then checks those words for grammar, spelling, clarity, and tone. They work together in sequence: Blurt for drafting, Grammarly for editing. You want both.
Will my spoken text appear with grammar mistakes?
Yes, sometimes. Blurt transcribes what you say with automatic punctuation and capitalization. But it does not fix grammar or word choice. That's what Grammarly does next. Think of Blurt as getting the raw material on the page so Grammarly has something to work with. Speak, then edit.
Does Blurt work in Google Docs, Gmail, and other apps where Grammarly works?
Yes. Blurt inserts text wherever your cursor is: Google Docs, Gmail, Microsoft Word, Slack, LinkedIn, web forms, and any other text field. If Grammarly can check it, Blurt can put text there for Grammarly to check. They overlap perfectly in terms of where they work.
How much does Blurt cost?
Blurt offers a free tier with first 1,000 words free. For unlimited transcription, you can subscribe at $10 per month or $99 per year.
Does Blurt work on Windows or Linux?
Blurt is macOS only. We focused on creating the best possible Mac experience with native menu bar integration and system-level keyboard shortcuts. Windows and Linux versions are not currently available.
Can I use Blurt if I only have free Grammarly?
Absolutely. Blurt works regardless of which Grammarly plan you have. Whether you use free Grammarly, Grammarly Premium, or Grammarly Business, Blurt helps you draft faster. The words you speak appear in the text field, and whatever version of Grammarly you have installed will check them.
