Digital Dictation Device

If you are accustomed to creating your dictation using a digital dictation device SpeakWrite can accommodate that as well. Simply 'save' your digital file to your computer and submit it to our system using any of the following methods:

Email

Create your dictation as you normally would and save the file to your computer. When you are ready to submit your job for completion just attach that file to an email addressed to submit@speakwrite.com and include your ten digit account number in the subject line. It is important that you put ONLY your account number in the subject line; otherwise the job will not be submitted for typing.

[Please note: It is important to note that our mail server has a size limitation of 12MB. You may need to check for any size restrictions on the mail server that you are using.  If you have problems uploading larger files, please contact our Customer Support at (800) 828-3889.]

Web Upload

To upload your digital audio file via our website you will first need to log into your SpeakWrite account Personal Page via the 'Log In' link from the SpeakWrite website.  Once there click 'Send Your File' and you will then be able to upload your audio from your computer.

SpeakEasy2

You may also use the SpeakEasy2 software to upload digital audio files not created using SpeakEasy2. Just save the audio file to your computer and use SpeakEasy to browse, locate the file, and upload to our system for typing by clicking the 'Submit other' button.
