Wake word data

Wake word and voice command data, recorded to your spec

We record your wake phrase, the commands after it and the phrases that sound like it, with native speakers recruited to your accent and demographic quotas. Sessions are recorded on the devices and in the environments your product will meet, from phones and headsets to far-field and in-car audio, and every one is checked before delivery.

How it works

Positives, negatives and the voices that say them

Your phrase list

Speakers record the wake word, the commands that follow it and the confusable phrases that should not trigger it, from the prompt list in your brief.

Speakers who sound like your users

Native speakers are recruited to your quotas for age, gender, region and accent. Each passes an ID check and a microphone test, and we confirm their language or dialect.

Recorded where your product is used

Sessions are recorded on the devices and in the environments your product will meet, then go through automatic checks for noise, clipping and duration and a human review.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Where can I get wake word training data recorded in my target languages?

SpeechData.ai records wake word and voice command data to order. Native speakers recruited to your accent and demographic quotas record your wake phrase, commands and confusable phrases on the devices you specify, and every session is checked before delivery. You get a feasibility assessment and a quote within one business day of sending your brief.

Can you record confusable phrases as well as the wake word?

Yes. Speakers record whatever your prompt list contains: the wake word, the commands that follow it, and phrases that sound like it but should not trigger the detector. They are recorded and transcribed the same way, so you can train and measure false accepts.

Which languages can you record?

Any of the 60 languages and dialects in our catalog, and other languages on request. We confirm recruitment feasibility for each language before quoting.
