Ability to move fully trained STT models between separate instances (i.e. DEV vs. PROD or separate accounts)

Customers for best practice reasons keep environments separate (DEV vs. PROD) for security, performance, testing & availability of the model. Training STT models can take hours to train. Not utilizing fully trained models results in delays in...

I just enrolled for Speec to text API. Unfortunately the languages are limited to 13. I am wondering if IBM are planning to add more languages whereas Google supports 60. Turkish is one of the languages i would like to see.

usability of the new IBM Watson tts demo site

When we did the project "spaceships with opinions" the IBM Watson tts-demo site was a great help. So I feel I have a responsibility to tell you how I think the new site is failing. https://www.ibm.com/demos/live/tts-demo/self-service/home It works...

Retreive sound file previously streamed to Watson Speech-to-Text

When working on improving our product, we'd like to capture field failures that could be used to train our custom speech-to-text model. We have a wake word (handled locally) and then we establish a connection to IBM Watson's Speech-to-Text service...
