Are you interested in improving speech recognition technology by reducing bias? If yes, then this project is for you!

Complete a two-part audio recording task using our Appen Mobile app:

Part 1: Scripted - Read and record a provided script alone (5 minutes).

Part 2: Conversational - Record a natural and spontaneous conversation with a friend or family member. Topics and script guides will be provided (5 minutes).

Important Note: Please be aware that the contents of this project may be sensitive, explicit, or otherwise triggering. If you have any questions, please reach out to us.

Duration:

The entire task will take you approximately 15 - 20 minutes to complete, including reading the guidelines and recording your voice.

Payment:

The task pay rate is $50. To earn the pay rate, your session must pass our quality-checking phase according to the instructions provided to you. The pay rate shown is the total amount you can earn for a fully accepted session including a scripted and a conversational part, not for each recording.

To qualify for payment, your submission must include completing both parts of the task. Additionally, each part should pass the quality checking at least 90% of the total audio recording (4 minutes and 30 seconds for each part). Failure to meet these criteria will result in no payment being made.

Due to project needs, each participant needs to successfully complete both parts in order for the session to be usable for AI training purposes.

-Aged 18 and above

-Have a friend or family member who could potentially do the conversational part of this project (any accent would be ok)
