I saw the terms, It's not clear for me if It's for business(ads) or not.
I want if someone can confirm my doubts for me.
If It's not for business can anyone show me other free apis...

Would you please help me to find out the best mobile "text-to-speech" and "speech-to-text" tool for both android and IOS?
I searched the web and found some tools such as:
For Speech to Text(STT):
1.react-native-voice
2.RNSpeakChat
3.Using Google Cloud
4.SpeechRecognizer
5.react-native-watson
6.react-speech-recognition
7.react-native-speech-recognition
and for text to speech (TTS):
1.react-native-tts
2.react-native-watson
3.react-native-speech
But I couldn't find which one is the best choice. Would you please help me in this regard?
Thanks in advance
For Speech to text you can refer this article as it explains precisely and also it uses react-native-voice as its an easy library to get started with . react-native-speech-to-text
For text-to-speech functionality, as per documentation of react-native-tts looks simple. you could implement that.
Hope it helps. feel free for doubts
i currently have a tts which is built using festival and festvox. i need to convert these voices and build a TTS in flite. apparently you can do the conversion using festvox (the festvox and flite websites say so but no proper steps on how to do it). can some one please help me out with it as i am new to this area?
thanx in advance ..
Just in-case anyone else was wondering the same i found the steps mentioned in this document useful and also subscribe to the mailing lists and feel free to ask question.
although i must mention i never implemented to TTS using "flite". i went ahead with "espeak"
text-to-speech for English language using Visual Basic 2008
Dim speech speech = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")
speech.speak(TextBox1.Text)
My question, how this can be used for arabic languages ?
thanks
From a Microsoft support article:
"Microsoft does not provide additional speech engines (voices), but a number of third-party products are available that support the new Microsoft Speech API. For information on these products, visit the following Microsoft Web site: http://www.microsoft.com/speech/evaluation/thirdparty/engines.mspx"
Only problem is, that website seems to be down. If you do a search for third-party engines, you'll see a lot of links to that site, too. I'd try to hunt down if it still exists, or try to look for the specific third-party engine you'd need to support Arabic.
No there is no Arabic TTS SAPI available either from MS or third party softwares after searching for long time .
their many online services even few software that support Arabic TTS
Like Acapela which is working only with their software no third party support .
Anyway I think that will not support that much in your project . only if the case you need an Audio output for the text file , not to deal with it interactivity .
Edit==
I just found another software Nuance Vocalizer Voice packs you can found the package here . and this is the Official site .according to the first source it Support SAPI .
I need to automatically transcribe some short MP3s as part of a proof of concept I am working on. I am currently looking into cloud solutions or web API services to send the MP3 as a simple HTTP request and receive a transcription back.
The only free/open source solution I have found here, but the demos don't seem to work (at least not on the files I need to transcribe). I have found some enterprise solutions for call centers, but so far nothing I can simply integrate into a project.
Are there any web based speech recognition services available? One that is able to filter out small noise would be a plus.
Here is an unofficial method to access Google ASR capability. I just tested on Yesterday and it still works - you can get JSON style ASR output with words and associated confidence score from an FLC audio sampled in 16KHz.
Also you can try speech recognition engine of Windows 7 to produce subtitles. Here is the tool for that.
This may be a good match. Also, their techcrunch profile (See this) lists competitors as: SimulScribe, SpinVox, Vlingo, Nuance, Microsoft, Google
Some of these links may be helpful.
Vlingo, Bing and Google have recognizers in the cloud, but I don't think they make them publicly programmable. I believe they are accessible only from their authorized clients.
For a proof of concept (and low volume), have you considered just using the desktop speech engines that come in Windows 7? What is the difference between System.Speech.Recognition and Microsoft.Speech.Recognition? may be helpful. The MS desktop recognizers ship with a dictation grammar and it sounds like that is what you will need.
Do you guys came across any sample application (i need source code of the app) for Microsoft PixelSense in web?

if you guys come across any useful post for surface please post your answers.
You will need the Surface SDK 1.0 which is not available thru an official source.
You can now download the Surface SDK with sample applications from the Surface Partner site. If you have access to the Surface Community site there are more advanced applications without source there.
