Voice and speech AI
Speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and voice assistants for hands-free workflows and accessibility.
Voice AI lets users interact without typing - ideal for hands-busy environments, accessibility, or when speed matters. Speech-to-text transcribes calls, meetings, or dictation. Text-to-speech reads content aloud or powers IVR. Voice assistants handle commands and queries.
I integrate voice AI into your products and workflows. For Barnsley businesses, that might mean transcribing customer calls for compliance, voice-controlled warehouse systems, or an IVR that understands natural language. The tech (Whisper, ElevenLabs, cloud APIs) is mature; the work is fitting it to your use case and handling accents, noise, and domain vocabulary.
