Sber has opened full access to its SaluteSpeech speech synthesis platform and accessibility for everyone. Prior to this, only legal entities could use it, and “private traders” were given access for non-commercial purposes in a limited format.
The new Freemium tariff for individuals allows you to solve the problem associated with the generation of speech and its textual transcription. Using a special API, authors can create audio books, and bloggers can voice content or convert audio recordings to text. For example, to quickly transcribe an interview.
Fluid and in demand resource-intensive technology, our goal was quick and easy access to the SaluteSpeech platform. Now all applications include the widest application of any, including commercial projects related to speech decoding and generation.
— Denis Afanasyev, director of the B2B products division of Salut Sberbank
The tariff includes 100 minutes of audio recordings and 200,000 characters for speech generation per month. The limit is reset. You can also purchase additional packages: 1,000 minutes of speech content – 1,200 rubles, speech generation for 1,000,000 characters – 1,000 rubles.
SMBs can use Freemium for mobile and web applications, pre-record for phones, read presentation materials, transcribe audio recordings of meetings, and more. A large business can use ways to test the SaluteSpeech machine before expanding speech technologies into business processes.
