Multilingual Speech deliveries
We publish no fixed listings, because we hold no inventory. What follows is the structure every multilingual speech delivery takes — the fields your specification needs, and what actually arrives in the package.
Why there is nothing to add to a cart
A catalog listing answers the question "what do you have?" Our model answers a different question: "what do you need?" Every multilingual speech project is quoted from a specification, which means the price, the timeline and the data itself are all derived from your requirement rather than from something already built.
The tradeoff is real and worth stating plainly: the timeline starts when the specification is agreed, not when you click a button. What you get in exchange is a dataset that matches the requirement, and — for anything unusual — one that is not also available to your competitors.
What arrives in a delivery
| Component | What it is |
|---|---|
| Audio files | Format, sampling rate and segmentation length set to your pipeline. Named to a convention you specify. |
| Transcription | Orthographic or phonetic, produced under a guideline you review before production starts. |
| Speaker metadata | Age band, gender, region and dialect background per file, plus a speaker identifier so the dataset can be sliced. |
| Recording conditions | Environment, device and, where relevant, measured signal-to-noise ratio per file. |
| Annotation guideline | The document the annotators worked from, so you can reproduce the conventions on your own data. |
| Consent records | Signed speaker consent covering your intended use, with the transfer mechanism addressed where required. |
| Collection methodology | How speakers were recruited, screened and scheduled — the part that tells you how biased the pool is. |
| Quality report | Pilot outcome, re-work log, and the annotator agreement figures where the task supports measuring them. |
Specification fields for multilingual speech
- Volume — total hours, and minimum distinct speaker count. The second number constrains the project far more than the first.
- Language and variety — including dialect where the language has meaningful internal variation, and script where the language has more than one writing system.
- Recording conditions — studio, home, mobile, or a named environment with a target signal-to-noise ratio.
- Annotation depth — Speaker count, hours, and recording conditions must be listed per language; a combined total does not cut it.
- Delivery format — audio container and sampling rate, segmentation length, metadata schema.
- Compliance scope — where the speakers are, where the data will be used, and whether the model will be distributed.
Next step
Send the specification and you will get a real number and a real timeline. If the requirement is not something we can source well, we will say so rather than take the order.
Request multilingual speech
Tell us the language, the hours, and what the data needs to look like. You will get a real number and a real timeline — not a range. If we cannot source it well, we will tell you that instead.
- Pilot batch before the full run, so problems surface early.
- Consent documentation delivered with the data.
- No medical or clinical data. No recorded telephone calls.
