How to transcribe speech to text in Microsoft OneNote

Taking notes with Microsoft OneNote usually means typing. You can of course also draw and use handwriting. However there is one more option for taking notes: Transcribe.

With the functionality of Transcribe, you get the possibility to convert speech to text. This is very useful when you have a recording of what was said during a meeting or a lecture.

Microsoft OneNote gives you also the possibility to record speech live and have it transcribed - this is a great option to save a lot of stressful typing, for instance when you are in a meeting. OneNote will even try identifying different speakers! Of course, always ensure that you follow integrity and security regulations and that you have everybody's consent to record audio.
