MagniTalk provides direct speech access to the Zoomtext Magnifier/Reader user interface, serving as a bridge between Dragon NaturallySpeaking Professional and ZoomText technologies. This means that users of the Zoomtext Magnifier & Reader (AI Squared) can more easily benefit from the advantages provided by Dragon NaturallySpeaking Professional (Nuance Communications) continuous speech voice recognition software.

With these two programs working together, the dynamic MagniTalk interface can provide a computer system that can be used by individuals with varying abilities (and should be particularly helpful for low vision and learning different PC users). Dragon NaturallySpeaking Professional and Zoomtext can be used and configured separately or in tandem, which can improve overall computing possibilities and provide increased user independence.

Minimum recommended system requirements: Intel Pentium 4, 2.8 GHz processor with a minimum 1GB RAM. The new Pentium M and Pentium D processors have proven to be particularly competent in supporting this technology. The system must have a voice compatible full duplex sound card and a Zoomtext compliant video chip. MagniTalk operates on Windows 2000/XP. Windows XP is the preferred platform.
