Heidi Health – UK Accent Speech Study for Clinicians (£10 per approved set of recordings, ~15 min)
Job description
Heidi Health, the clinical AI scribe used by clinicians in the UK, Australia and the US, is building speech recognition that works for every accent. To get there, Heidi needs short recordings from UK-based clinicians who speak with specific regional and community accents.
What you'll do -Record yourself reading two short passages aloud (one clinical, one non-medical) from a quiet space, using your phone or laptop microphone. -Total time: around 15 minutes. -Before any paid recording, and as part of the screening process, Heidi listens to a short unpaid sample to confirm your accent and audio quality. If it isn't a match for this study, we'll tell you before you start. The sample is only used for that check. It will not be used to train speech recognition or any other model.
Who we're looking for UK-registered healthcare professionals (GMC, NMC or equivalent) who live in the UK, read English aloud fluently and naturally speak with one of these accents day to day: -African (Nigerian, Ghanaian, East African) -British-African -British-Caribbean -East Asian -Lancashire -Liverpool and Merseyside (Scouse) -Middle Eastern -North East (Geordie, Mackem, Teesside) -Received Pronunciation (RP), Standard Southern, Estuary or South East English -Welsh -West Midlands (Brummie, Black Country)
We're asking how you speak, not where you or your family come from. We don't need your nationality or ethnicity. Please refer to our accent guide to help identify the group that best describes your speech: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1svkV64RpCfpRRFf1WxhjdJgZOhCegHqM/view?usp=sharing
Pay £10 ($13.35) for each completed set of recordings (around 15 minutes in total). You'll be paid once Heidi confirms your recordings are complete and clear.
How your recordings are used Heidi will use your paid recordings, together with the accent you select, to train and test its speech recognition. Because an accent can indicate ethnic origin, we ask for your explicit consent during screening.
Places are limited per accent group, so apply early.
