Voices in the sample

In the transcripts

718,981 words in 53,495 turns

  • Devanagari script, English as spoken

    Words are written in the script the speaker would use; English words stay in Latin script where they were said, so code-mixing is preserved as spoken.

  • Aligned per segment, speakers labelled

    One segment per turn with its start and end time and the speaker, no word-level timestamps. Overlaps are kept as overlapping segments.

  • One tag vocabulary, in square brackets

    Anything that is not a spoken word is a bracket tag from a single list: [pii] for masked personal data, [filler] for hesitations, [overlap] where both speak at once. Plain-text fields carry no tags.

  • Personal data masked, in text and audio

    Numbers of 4 or more digits, digit strings spoken as words, and email addresses are masked as [pii] in text and replaced by a tone in audio. First names are not masked.

Delivery layouts are on formats.

Audible room and line noise. Right for recognition and agents meant to work in the real world; not a voice-model source. Noise floor -75.7 dBFS, speech at -15.3 dBFS.

What it is good for.

  • Speech recognitionFitsTime-aligned transcripts in native script, English kept as spoken. 36.8 dB median SNR across the full set, wideband (53 dB in the sample conversations).
  • Full-duplex speech to speechPartlyOne mixed channel. Turns are labelled, but overlapping speech cannot be separated, which these models need.
  • Turn-taking and endpointingPartlyTurn boundaries come from the transcript, so gaps are approximate and overlap is marked, not separated.
  • Voice agents for supportPartlyOpen conversation, not a support flow. Useful for language and prosody, not for task structure.
  • Speaker diarisationFitsSpeaker-attributed segments across full conversations.
  • Text to speechPartly36.8 dB median SNR across the full set, wideband (53 dB in the sample conversations): clean and wideband enough for conversational prosody data, though not a studio voice.
