- Sample size
- ~30 minutes
- Cost
- Free
- Turnaround
- 5-8 working days
- Formats
- WAV 48 kHz + transcript + metadata
What the sample contains
- Hinglish audio from at least four speakers with a mixed gender and age spread
- Coverage of Delhi corporate Hinglish, Mumbai Bambaiya, Call-centre register where your spec calls for dialect breadth
- Verbatim transcripts in Devanagari + Latin, with a romanised parallel transcript on request
- Per-file metadata: speaker ID, age band, gender, district, device, environment and SNR
- A short QA report showing how the files were checked before they were sent
How to specify it
| Decision | Options | Default if you do not say |
|---|---|---|
| Speech type | Scripted / spontaneous / conversational / telephony | Scripted plus a spontaneous block |
| Environment | Studio / quiet room / field / call path | Studio and quiet room, split |
| Sample rate | 48 kHz, 16 kHz, 8 kHz | 48 kHz mastered, 16 kHz derived |
| Dialects | Delhi corporate Hinglish, Mumbai Bambaiya, Call-centre register | Standard variety plus one regional |
| Annotation | Verbatim / timestamps / speaker turns / event tags | Verbatim with timestamps |
The sample is only useful if it looks like the data you would actually buy. Send the spec you would put in a purchase order and we record against that.

What to test it against
- Run it through your existing ASR or TTS pipeline and read the error breakdown by speaker and dialect
- Check how Hinglish code-mixing is transcribed: Hinglish is the code-mixing case itself. Typical urban customer-support speech is 30-60% English tokens embedded in Hindi grammar, with switching several times per utterance.
- Check the transcription convention against your tokeniser — Whether English tokens are written in Latin or transliterated into Devanagari must be fixed by rule, not left to annotators is the usual failure point
- Confirm the metadata is complete enough to filter and stratify by
What a Hinglish sample usually exposes
Hinglish has roughly 350 million speakers across Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and models trained on generic multilingual data typically fail on the same things each time.
Almost no public corpus contains genuine intra-sentential Hindi-English switching with per-token language tags. This is the highest-value gap for anyone building Indian conversational AI.
- Phonetics your acoustic model may not have seen: Intra-sentential switching means English words carry Indian phonology, so English acoustic models mis-transcribe them
- Utterance types worth sampling separately: Simulated customer-support calls with natural switching, Two-party spontaneous conversation between colleagues, Voice-assistant commands with English app and brand names
- Recording geography in the sample: Delhi, Gurugram, Noida
What happens after
Nothing automatic. If the sample works, we scope the full build against the same specification and quote a fixed price. If it does not, tell us what failed — that feedback is more useful to us than a polite no.
Recruit by switching behaviour, not by language proficiency. Screening recordings are used to confirm speakers switch naturally rather than performing one language.
Frequently asked
Is the Hinglish sample really free?
Yes. There is no charge and no obligation. We cap it at roughly 30 minutes because that is enough to judge quality without becoming an unpaid production run.
Can we use the sample data commercially?
The sample is licensed for evaluation. Full commercial rights and IP transfer come with a paid delivery, including a paid pilot.
How long does it take?
Five to eight working days from an agreed specification, depending on how narrow the speaker cohort is.
Can we specify our own script?
Yes. Send your prompts, wake words or domain vocabulary and we record those instead of our standard set.
