Azure AI’s Speech Studio (Azure Cognitive Services Speech) is a robust platform designed to equip applications with advanced speech capabilities — enabling them to understand, interpret, and even communicate with users through auditory means.
With features such as speech-to-text, text-to-speech, real-time transcription, pronunciation assessment, speech translation, and personalized voice creation – Speech Studio serves a wide array of use cases. It offers support for more than 100 languages and dialects and is able to handle domain-specific terminology, background noise, and accents.
Whether it’s converting broadcast audio to text for captioning, transcribing call center recordings for analytics, enabling live chat with avatars that understand and respond to speech, or crafting speech with emotion through customizable voices – Speech Studio can help and make content more accessible and interactions more natural and engaging.
Finally, we’ll mention that Speech Studio adheres to Microsoft’s AI principles of fairness, reliability, safety, privacy, security, inclusiveness, transparency, and human accountability. This ensures that developers can create applications that are not only technologically advanced but also ethically sound and respectful of user privacy.
