"Hey, we made this commercial tool that is better than open source!"

Typical, basing your research on open source projects and then make a commercial product on top of other people's work. Great achievement.

Research pub or Gtfo

It’s fine, open source SOTA will make them irrelevant sooner rather than later

rshah4 t1_jbzvzsl wrote on March 13, 2023 at 12:28 AM

Is it open source?

No

Seems like there's a very generous free tier, then super cheap after that.

Why is this tagged [R]. This is a commercial project at best. Where's the paper, where's the code? Can we use it today on our PC like whisper? This really isn't 'research'.

Release the model. It wants to be free.

Yes, that's probably a cherry picking marketing only.

Wav2vec2 is still sota as long as this isn’t open source it’s kinda useless lmao

On which metric are you basing this on? I'm not deep in ASR but in the Whisper paper it is compared to word2vec 2.0 and whisper is better in most categories.

Excellent demo on your page, I just used it on a YT video featuring a non-native English speaker. There was only a slight error in punctuation due to an ambiguously long pause in the speech.

Is this a purely commercial product or will there be an open source release?

Franck_Dernoncourt t1_jc0sacm wrote on March 13, 2023 at 5:02 AM

Pretty sure commercial product only. Speechmatics has never opensourced any of their models.

Seems super cheap to me tbf - no problem with paying for stuff like this.

what is the difference between $1.25/hr for Standard, $1.90/hr for Enhanced

brandonZappy t1_jc0i28p wrote on March 13, 2023 at 3:24 AM

$0.65?

ihexx t1_jc1g3bd wrote on March 13, 2023 at 10:25 AM

my guess is model size

Traditional_Yard_725 t1_jc0xvd2 wrote on March 13, 2023 at 6:08 AM

Can confirm it is better than whisper, doesn't randomly go off the rails either but I don't wanna have to pay 😅

filisterr t1_jc1c8lp wrote on March 13, 2023 at 9:31 AM

So is this post kind of a hidden advertisement or what?

Any ways to get the encoded speech features?

Viacheslav_Varenia t1_jc13mkn wrote on March 13, 2023 at 7:26 AM

Does it support Ukrainian and Russian?

HotRecognition0121 t1_jc10odk wrote on March 13, 2023 at 6:45 AM

are there wer for other languages? Like in the github page for whisper? I want to compare the performance in other languages

Guitargamer57 t1_jc1hhjz wrote on March 13, 2023 at 10:44 AM

I tested it using Japanese and it seems like it misses punctuation for the most part. But, overall, seems to be doing a good job getting the words.

Removed after LOTS of reports. See rules #3 and #8 in the sidebar.
