Voice to Text for Microsoft Edge
Microsoft Edge is your gateway to the web — search queries, web forms, online applications, Microsoft 365 web apps, and every SaaS tool your company uses. Every one of those requires typing. Blurt turns your voice into text anywhere you can place a cursor in Edge. Hold a button, speak naturally, release. Your words appear instantly in any input field, text area, or content-editable element. No browser extension needed. No configuration. Just talk and the text appears.
The Typing Problem
Web forms drain your energy
You're filling out yet another form — vendor onboarding, insurance claims, job applications, support tickets. Each field requires clicking, typing, tabbing, typing again. By the fifth form of the day your fingers are tired and your patience is gone. The repetitive nature of form filling makes you dread tasks that should be quick but feel like an endurance test.
Microsoft 365 web apps demand constant input
Outlook on the web, Teams chat, SharePoint comments, Word Online documents. Your company runs on Microsoft 365 and every tool wants you to type. You're switching between thinking about what to write and the slow mechanics of typing it out. The browser has become a bottleneck for your productivity across the entire Microsoft ecosystem.
Search queries get truncated because typing is tedious
You know exactly what you're looking for but translating that into typed search terms takes effort. Long-tail searches that would find exactly what you need feel like too much work. You settle for shorter, less precise queries in Bing or Google and spend more time scrolling through irrelevant results instead of finding the answer immediately.
Web-based enterprise tools require endless text entry
Your company uses web apps for everything — CRMs, help desks, project management, HR systems. Every task requires typing into Edge. Status updates, customer notes, ticket responses, performance reviews. You're constantly switching between formulating your thoughts and the slow process of getting them on screen.
Online shopping and account management take forever
Updating your address, writing product reviews, contacting customer support, filling out return forms. Every online service needs information typed out character by character. Simple tasks like updating your profile or leaving feedback become frustrating ordeals when your only option is the keyboard.
How It Works
Blurt works in any text field across any website you visit in Microsoft Edge. Outlook web, Bing search, SharePoint, web-based CRMs, online forms — anywhere you can type, you can speak.
Click where you want to type
Put your cursor in any text field, input box, or content area on any website. Blurt works with standard inputs, text areas, and rich text editors in Edge.

Press your chosen shortcut. A small indicator appears. Speak naturally — Blurt handles punctuation, capitalization, and formatting automatically.

Text is inserted at your cursor position in under 500 milliseconds. Continue typing, submit the form, or send the message. No extra steps.
Real Scenarios
Clearing your Outlook web inbox before lunch
You have 18 emails requiring substantive responses in Outlook on the web. Instead of typing each one, you open the first email, hit reply, hold your hotkey, and speak your response naturally. Release, review, send. Move to the next. Eighteen thoughtful email responses completed in 15 minutes instead of an hour and a half. Your inbox is clear before your meeting starts.
Filling out a multi-page vendor application form
The enterprise vendor registration form has 52 fields across 6 pages. Company details, compliance information, security questionnaire, references. With Blurt, you click each field and dictate. The form that usually takes 30 minutes of typing takes 10 minutes of speaking. Your hands stay relaxed while the form gets completed.
Composing detailed Bing searches that find exactly what you need
You need specific information about a technical issue. Instead of typing a simplified query, you hold the button and say the exact problem plus all the context you remember. Long, precise search queries become effortless. You find the exact Stack Overflow answer or documentation page on the first search instead of refining your query five times.
Updating customer records in your web-based CRM
After each customer call you need to log notes in Salesforce, Dynamics 365, or HubSpot through Edge. The call just ended and details are fresh. Hold the button and dictate: 'Customer needs enterprise license upgrade by Q2. Primary concern is API rate limits for their integration. Following up with pricing after internal approval on their side.' Complete notes captured before you forget a single detail.
Writing comments in SharePoint and Teams web
Your team collaborates through SharePoint document libraries and Teams channels in the browser. Each comment, each reply, each update requires typing. With Blurt, you click the comment field, speak your thoughts naturally, and move on. You provide more detailed, more helpful feedback because the friction of typing is completely gone.
Completing HR and compliance forms online
Annual performance reviews, expense reports, compliance training acknowledgments, time-off requests. HR systems live in the browser and demand text. With Blurt, the detailed self-review that used to take an hour of painful typing takes 20 minutes of speaking. You write more thorough responses because talking is easier than typing.
Writing product reviews and support messages
You want to leave a detailed review on Amazon or contact customer support about an issue. Instead of typing a brief message because more would be too tedious, you hold the button and speak the full context. A three-paragraph review takes 30 seconds to dictate. Support gets the complete picture of your issue on the first message.
