About the Project

We are looking for fluent English speakers to participate in a conversational voice recording project aimed at training and improving AI speech and conversational models.

Participants will have natural, unscripted conversations with an AI-powered conversational bot across topics such as Travel, Finance, Retail, Healthcare, Telecom, Education, and more.

This is not a script-reading project. We are looking for participants who can speak naturally, confidently, and spontaneously while providing detailed responses.

Selection Process

• Audition: Submit a 2-minute voice recording in a quiet environment.
• Screening: Submitted samples will be reviewed based on language fluency, pronunciation, voice quality, and conversational ability.
• Shortlisting: Selected candidates will be invited to participate in the final recording.
• NDA: Selected candidates must sign an NDA before the final recording session. Compensations: Rs. 500/Hr | Max Rs. 1000 for 2 hours of recording

• Record a 2-minute audition sample as part of the selection process.

• If selected, complete 2 hours of conversational voice recording from home.

• Interact naturally with an AI bot that will guide the conversation through different topics.
