Wake Word Detection Data for Speech AI Companies
Teams whose core product is speech recognition or synthesis, where dataset quality is the product roadmap and word error rate is the metric everyone watches. Training and hardening a device wake word against Indian phonetics, background noise and near-miss phrases.

Where the two meet
WER on Indian languages is dominated by dialect and code-mixing failures that generic corpora do not cover That is a wake word detection problem, and it is solved by data shaped like this:
- Thousands of speakers, few utterances each
- Positive and hard-negative sets
- Multiple distances and noise conditions
Your evaluation criteria
- Are train/dev/test splits speaker-disjoint by construction?
- Is transcription verbatim, with disfluencies preserved?
- Is per-token language ID available for code-mixed speech?
- Is inter-annotator agreement measured and reported?
Metrics
- False accepts per hour
- False reject rate per accent band
- Performance at 3m and 5m
Pitfalls
- Positives only, with no hard negatives
- Close-mic-only capture
- No accent-band tagging, so failures cannot be localised
Contract points
- Speaker-disjoint splits guaranteed contractually
- Right to publish benchmark results
- Re-record remedy for QA failures
Frequently asked
What does a first engagement look like?
Usually a scoped pilot: one language, an evaluation set plus a first training batch, delivered in three to five weeks, followed by the full programme.
Can you match our existing vendor's schema?
Yes. Working to your schema avoids a conversion pass and keeps deliveries comparable across vendors.
How is provenance documented?
Per-item contributor records and consent mapped to IDs in the manifest.
