I have users who have intentionally switched their speech engine from the latest version of Dragon to Talon, for both dictation and commands. Talon is cross platform and directly targets accessibility use cases (far more than just speech input).

I switched from dragon to talon a while back... and then back to dragon :-\ Not to bash though. You've built a great product!
I'm specifically talking about the new Conformer model, available in early access as of ten days ago. What you tried was likely the previous (circa 2018) model, which is much less accurate than Conformer.

This is a demo of Conformer in Talon: https://twitter.com/lunixbochs/status/1378159234861264896

Oh cool! Yeah I was using whatever the beta model was in December or so.
