๐Ÿ“ฆ UI componentsโ€‹

Major update with a unified API for both JS and React, a new TranscriptDrawer component with just-in-time usage hints for an improved user onboarding experience, a listening prompt to indicate when the app is listening, and a developer-triggerable command to acknowledge that an utterance was received.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Browser clientโ€‹

v1.0.13, stability improvements.

๐Ÿ’Ž SLU engineโ€‹

Make entity and intent detectors more robust against inadvertent non-device-directed speech.

  • Update to entity detection model with increased accuracy.
  • New baseline ASR model.

๐Ÿ“ Documentationโ€‹

More examples of gRPC API usage.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Browser clientโ€‹

More robust audio recording.

Training time estimates: Changed the way how we estimate deployment times when training the models.

Playground: Pressing 'alt' temporarily enables the Try-button so that one can use the Playground with an old model while a new one is being trained.

Model deployment: More robust training infrastructure that reduces model training times in certain situations.

iOS UI Components: Ready-made UI components for microphone and transcript for hastened development on iOS.

Android Client: An Android client for easy integration with Speechly is now available. The Android client enables quick and efficient development of Speechly applications for native Android applications.

Support for new entities: Support for natural time expressions such as "fifteen thirty", "20 past nine" or "5 minutes after midnight" with $SPEECHLY.TIME standard variable and entity type Time.

Fixed: Better support for long utterances and other fixes

CLI: New debugging feature in CLI displays example utterances for a given configuration and calculates statistics about occurrences of intents and entities.

Support for unadapted ASR: Typically Speechly SLU models are adapted for a specific use case, which helps improve speech recognition accuracy. Now you can also use unadapted ASR for pure transcription use cases.

Support for new entities: Speechly Annotation Language supports natively phone numbers, emails, person names and website addresses. This enables developers to easily build voice experiences that contain these data types, for example something like "Add contact with name Jack Johnston and email address jack dot johnston at gmail dot com"

Improved audio handling in browser clients: Streaming audio and handling API results is done by using multiple threads for improved performance. Main UI thread is never blocked by Speechly, resulting in a faster UI.
