Voiceitt – adapt-it.co.uk

Adapt-IT have joined forces with Voiceitt to become an official partner! The Adapt-IT partnership with Voiceitt covers the UK and Europe, bringing an AI powered speech recognition technology for people with non-standard speech to speak their mind and be understood – at home, in education, and at work. Voiceitt is a powerful web app for people with speech disabilities that translates their non-standard speech into audio and text outputs for both in-person and virtual communication. Created in collaboration with individuals with atypical speech and speech-language pathologists, Voiceitt has opened previously inaccessible Voice AI solutions for communication, dictation, home automation, and more.

Features

Within Voiceitt’s ‘Training’ mode, you must complete 50 phrases to unlock the ‘Speak’ and ‘Dictate’ modes. You can change which level of difficulty your training phrases are within the recording tab.

Personal Vocabulary is available from the start and also counts towards your 50 training phrases. However there is a levelling system with 8 levels that determines your accuracy based on how many phrases you have recorded.

The levels are:

Level 1 – 50 recordings – “Hi I’m Voiceitt. Nice to meet you.”
Level 2 – 100 recordings – “Voiceitt is getting to know your voice better.”
Level 3 – 200 recordings – “Voiceitt is starting to learn your speech patterns.”
Level 4 – 300 recordings – “Voiceitt is a beginner listener.”
Level 5 – 400 recordings – “Voiceitt is an intermediate listener.”
Level 6 – 600 recordings – “Voiceitt is a familiar listener.”
Level 7 – 800 recordings – “Voiceitt is an advanced listener.”
Level 8 – 1000 recordings – “Voiceitt is an expert listener.”

Once you have completed 50 training phrases, you will unlock the ‘Speak’ mode.

The ‘Speak’ mode is speech-to-speech for interacting with others and smart home systems.

To use Speak, select “Click to speak”, and speak a short phrase, for example, “Can I have a cup of tea?”. Then select the “Listening: tap to stop” button and Voiceitt will Speak what you said in a clear computerised voice.

You can change your voice in the Menu drop-down under Settings.

Speak also has a built-in toggle to engage directly with ChatGPT. Go ahead, and ask ChatGPT a question!

To toggle between ‘Speak’ and ‘Dictate’, just tap the ‘Switch Mode’ button.

You will also unlock the ‘Dictate’ mode once you have reached 50 training phrases.

The ‘Dictate’ mode is speech-to-text. You can speak a story and let someone read your screen or dictate an email using copy-and-paste or share to another location.

Dictate has Voice Control for hands-free editing and navigation, or you can edit the text by typing. Dictate also offers ‘Notes’ to return to a previous message.

Dictate can speak by tapping ‘play’ or delete the text on the screen by tapping ‘clear’.

To toggle between Dictate and Speak, just tap the ‘Switch Mode’ button.

The Voiceitt Chrome extension is speech-to-text input designed by and for people with non-standard speech. It allows you to dictate directly into Google Chrome.

Chrome extensions are for use on the Chrome browser on a laptop or desktop device. They do not work on tablet or mobile (e.g., iOS or Android) devices or other browsers (e.g., Safari & Edge).

Voiceitt Chrome Extension works on various websites, but not all of them. New websites are added everyday but please contact us if a website that is important to you does not allow you to dictate.

To use the Voiceitt extension, you need an active Voiceitt subscription with at least 50 recordings completed.

Voiceitt integrates with Microsoft Teams and Zoom which allows live personalised closed captioning during video calls.

Whether it’s a work call, calling your family or catching up with friends, Voiceitt captions ensures everyone can follow along and participate effectively.

The Teams capabilities require a paid Microsoft 365 account to add the Voiceitt Captions from the app menu.

An active Voiceitt account is required for Voiceitt Captions for both Teams and Zoom. Guests are able to view the Voiceitt Captions.
