it is time consuming because I do literally hundreds to thousands of searches daily as part of my consulting business, and even adding 2 seconds to every search adds literally hours of time to what I am trying to accomplish.

I want to be able to depend on voiceover in a professional capacity, but if it can't even handle basic web searches my confidence falls through the floor.
