Full-duplex data collection

Real conversation data for full-duplex speech models

Natural two-speaker English conversations, recorded on isolated, time-aligned tracks, so your model learns the rich interaction of real talk: overlap, backchannels and interruptions.

What full-duplex data captures

Half-duplex data teaches a model to wait its turn. Real conversation doesn't. These recordings keep everything that happens between turns.

01

Overlapping speech

Both people talking at once, on separate clean channels, so a model can hear each voice through the overlap.

Overlap eventsPer-speaker tracks
02

Backchannels

The "mm-hmm", "right" and "yeah" that listeners give while someone else holds the floor.

Mm-hmmRight, yeahHesitations
03

Turn-taking

Interruptions, barge-ins, pauses and the gap between one speaker stopping and the next starting.

An end-to-end collection pipeline

One team runs every step from design to delivery, so quality is built in rather than filtered out at the end.

01

Design

Instructions, speaker targets and protocol shaped around what your model needs.

02

Recruit & screen

Speakers matched to your profile targets; equipment checked before they are booked.

03

Record

Hosted remote sessions, each speaker on a lossless isolated track on one clock.

04 Human

Verify

A trained host monitors every second live, gives a verdict, then automated checks run.

05

Deliver

Aligned audio, timed transcripts and metadata in a consistent, traceable structure.
