Use Wispr Flow in Microsoft Word
Wispr Flow types into Microsoft Word like any app: place your cursor, hold the hotkey, and speak. Word has its own built-in Dictate button, which is free and fine for basic use. Wispr Flow's advantages are stronger automatic cleanup and one consistent dictation experience across Word, Outlook, your browser, and every other app.
Wispr Flow vs Word's built-in Dictate
Word's Dictate (on the Home tab) is free and convenient inside Office. It does lighter cleanup than Wispr Flow and only works within Microsoft apps. Wispr Flow adds better filler removal, punctuation, and tone matching, and the same habit works everywhere, not just in Word.
How to use it
Install Wispr Flow on Mac or Windows, open Word, click into the document, hold your hotkey, and dictate. It types wherever the cursor is, including comments and text boxes.
Long-document workflow
Dictate the body in passes, let Wispr Flow clean each pass, then use Word's styles and reviewing tools for structure, headings, and precise edits. Keep names and terms in a custom dictionary so they stay correct through a long draft.
