Speech Data Annotation

Speech Data Annotation
Speech data annotation is essential for training modern voice based AI systems. Models that perform speech recognition, speaker detection, transcription, or audio driven reasoning require precisely labeled datasets that capture not only what is being said but also how, when, and by whom. DataVLab provides specialized speech annotation workflows for companies building ASR engines, conversational AI, voice assistants, call center analytics, and multimodal LLMs. Our team annotates speech datasets across multiple dimensions including speaker identity, timestamp segmentation, phonetic structures, language and dialect classification, sentiment, and acoustic conditions.
Accurate segmentation, speaker labeling, and linguistic tagging for high performance voice models.
Multilingual annotation capabilities across scripted and natural speech datasets.
Quality controlled workflows for ASR, diarization, and phonetic level annotation.

Our offering:
Our team annotates speech datasets across multiple dimensions including speaker identity, timestamp segmentation, phonetic structures, language and dialect classification, sentiment, and acoustic conditions. We support monolingual and multilingual corpora, noisy recordings, call center conversations, scripted datasets, and long form natural dialogues.
Speech annotation requires meticulous detail. Accurate time alignment, consistent speaker labeling, and clean segmentation directly affect model performance. Our workflows include multi pass review, internal audits, and project specific guidelines calibrated to each taxonomy. We also help define annotation rules for phoneme level work, emphasis markers, disfluencies, and linguistic features that shape vocal expression.
Custom:
We adapt to different dataset formats and objectives. Whether training a low latency ASR system, a speaker verification model, or an enterprise voice intelligence solution, our annotators follow standardized quality processes that ensure consistency and reliability across large volumes of audio.
Examples of Speech Data Annotation Workflows
We support enterprise and research teams building speech based AI models.

Timestamp Segmentation
Marking speech boundaries and time intervals
We segment recordings with accurate start and end timestamps to support ASR alignment and structured dataset creation.

Speaker Diarization
Labeling who is speaking in multi voice audio
We identify speaker changes, overlaps, and consistent identities across long recordings.

Phoneme and Linguistic Tagging
Detailed phonetic and language annotation
We annotate phonemes, disfluencies, emphasis markers, and linguistic structures for linguistically sensitive models.

Sentiment and Intent Labeling
Detecting tone and conversational signals
We annotate emotional tone, intent cues, hesitation, urgency, and politeness in speech.

Noise and Condition Annotation
Identifying audio quality and environmental factors
We label noise types, interference, recording quality, and acoustic conditions affecting ASR accuracy.

Transcript and ASR Alignment
Matching text and speech at granular levels
We align transcripts with precise timecodes for ASR ground truth datasets.
