Without Speech-to-Text Radio, Efficiency Drops
Speech-to-text devices let workers review messages as needed, while traditional communication relies on a single transmission, with no way to revisit messages.
Without Text-to-Speech Radio, Communication Slows Down
Workers are stuck with written information only, while text-to-speech technology lets them listen to messages on the go and in their preferred language.
The Walt Smart Radio is a powerful communication platform that combines the power of AI with on-device dictation and TTS capabilities for seamless communication on every single message across the entire frontline.
Turning every conversation from physical to digital unlocks new potential for your frontline. But how exactly do speech-to-text and text-to-speech work on Walt? It’s simple.
Speak into Walt and the system automatically transcribes your message and transmits instantly. The receiver can either hear you or read your message as text.
By using the dictation device and automatic dictation, workers can see every past message on their Walt at any time. This becomes your company’s system of record.
Simply type and send a message through the mobile app or console. The text message is audibly played through the Walt Smart Radio.
Anyone in the channel can use the playback feature to replay past messages whenever they need to for clarity or confirmation.
As a smart radio with text-to-speech capabilities, Walt is changing communication for the workforce — but that doesn’t even scratch the surface of everything it can do. Let’s look at some features that make Walt stand out against traditional radios.
Keep communication clear even in loud environments by utilizing Walt’s voice dictation device. Speech-to-text is automatic for every transmission sent on the Walt Smart Radio or mobile app ensuring workers will never miss a message to keep work going and communication moving.
Use Walt as a portable text-to-speech device to convert text messages into audio with AI transcription accuracy. Even if workers don’t have time to read a message, they can always listen to it and stay in touch.
Enhance safety and teamwork with images, videos, and audio. Walt empowers every worker to make the message as clear as possible, share updates, send safety concerns, and more.
Connect every employee regardless of their preferred language. AI-powered language translation lets every worker receive messages in their native language, meaning 100% of your workforce can communicate and feel like part of the team. No more language barriers.
Message playback gives workers the choice to communicate on their schedule. Missed transmissions in loud environments are no longer reasons to lose track of communications. Now, everyone can listen to every message on their own time.
It’s definitely a big step up from where we were. It’s what I expected in terms of operational efficiency and reducing downtime because my communication improves. They’re helping us with translation. We feel confident that they’re better than what we had before because we can communicate effectively from any and every part of the facility. And people know how to use them.
Being able to connect with anyone at any time and to be able to see where everyone is huge for us. It adds accountability for the supervisors to be able to respond quickly and get us the information we need to assist them.

Learn MoreEnabling Walt as a dictation device is easy because it’s an automatic process. This is especially useful on the frontline, where workers have short windows to respond, work in loud, harsh environments, wear gloves, and may not always be able to look down and type. Here’s how Walt Smart Radio enables dictation:
Walt Smart Radio uses voiceover text-to-speech technology to convert written messages into audio. Every written transmission sent using the mobile app or console is converted to text. Each message is then assigned an audible AI voice to read back the written text.
In addition, the playback feature lets the receiving worker play back each message by simply hitting the play button next to the transmission in the channel.
With speech-to-text radios, messages never get lost in the shuffle because they’re always easy to read and locate.
Here are the top benefits of a smart industrial radio that integrates speech-to-text features:
When choosing a digital dictation device, recognizing what tools and features you need for your specific application is key.
For example, in industries like food and beverage, workers typically use speech-to-text to update inventory without needing to stop what they’re doing. By equipping them with a Walt, they’re able to do their jobs more efficiently.
Walt brings communication and safety into one easy-to-use device that does it all, putting invaluable features into the hands of every worker. With instant speech-to-text and text-to-speech technology, no message will ever get lost again.
The Walt Smart Radio System uses the power of automatic dictation and text-to-speech to take the frontline to a place it’s never been before. Partner with us to see how we help communication adapt to any scenario.
