Key Capabilities

Speech & Audio Data Collection

Shaip collects scripted, spontaneous, and conversational Indian-language speech across call-center, podcast, IVR, and general-conversation domains. Native collectors capture authentic accents and dialects, then linguists transcribe and validate every recording for ASR and voice-AI training.

Text-to-Speech (TTS) Datasets

Shaip builds studio-grade and natural TTS corpora for Indian languages, pairing clean phonetically-balanced scripts with professional voice talent. Each TTS dataset supports expressive, multi-speaker synthesis for Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, and additional Indic languages.

ASR & Transcription Data

Shaip delivers transcription-aligned audio for automatic speech recognition, including code-switched Hindi-English (Hinglish) and Indian-English dialects. Standardized transcription guidelines cover spelling, disfluencies, and non-speech events to maximize recognition accuracy across regional variants.

NLP & Text Datasets

Shaip provides annotated Indian-language text for translation, sentiment, intent, and entity tasks. Datasets capture script, romanized, and code-mixed text so NLP and LLM teams can train models that handle India's real-world multilingual input.

Custom & Off-the-Shelf Licensing

Choose pre-labeled off-the-shelf Indian datasets for fast deployment, or commission custom collection by language, dialect, demographic, and domain. Flexible licensing and ownership terms let teams scale from a pilot to a full production corpus without renegotiating consent.

Conversational AI & IVR Data

Shaip captures multi-turn dialogue, utterance variations, and wake-word data for Indian-language virtual assistants and IVR systems. Utterance sets reflect how real users phrase the same intent, improving recognition for chatbots and voice agents in Hindi and regional languages.

Enhance AI with Diverse Indian Multilingual Speech Data

At Shaip, we provide diverse speech datasets for NLP that mimic real conversations to enhance your AI. Our expertise in Multilingual Conversational AI helps you create precise speech models. We offer multilingual audio collection, transcription, and annotation services, customized to your needs for intent, utterances, and demographics.

Success Stories

Trains Voice Assistants in 40+ Languages for Global Reach

Shaip provided digital assistant training in 40+ languages for a major cloud-based voice service provider used with voice assistants. They required a natural voice experience so users in different countries around the world would have intuitive, natural interactions with this technology.

Conversational ai

Problem: Acquire 20,000+ hours of unbiased data across 40 languages

Solution: 3,000+ linguists delivered quality audio/ transcripts within 30 weeks

Result: Highly trained Digital assistant models that is able to understand multiple languages

Utterances to build Multi-lingual digital assistants

Not all customers use the same words while interacting with voice assistants. Voice applications must be trained on spontaneous speech data. E.g., “Where is the closest hospital located?” “Find a hospital near me” or all indicate the same search intent but are phrased differently.

Utterance data collection

Problem: Acquire 22,250+ hours of unbiased data across 13 languages

Solution: 7M+ Audio Utterances collected, transcribed, and delivered within 28 weeks

Result: Highly trained speech recognition model that is able to understand multiple languages

How It Works

Define scope

Specify languages, dialects, formats, demographics, and volume for your Indian-language dataset.

Collect & record

Native speakers contribute consent-sourced speech, audio, or text under standardized protocols.

Transcribe & annotate

Linguists transcribe, label, and tag data to your guidelines for ASR, TTS, or NLP.

Validate & deliver

6-Sigma QA validates every file, then Shaip delivers licensed data in your required format.
