Opportunities:

  • Growing the use of smart speakers and voice assistants

Through speech recognition, smart speakers and intelligent voice assistants will be able to drive revenue The use of smart speakers and voice assistants, such as Amazon's Alexa, Apple's Siri, or Google's Assistant, has increased over the past few years. Voice enabled apps are likely to dramatically change the way users engage with technology as these devices become part of more homes. With predictions that more households will use smart speakers, their popularity is growing.

  • Increasing use of smart mobile phones

Challenges:

  • Multilingual support for captioning and subtitling

In countries with a number of regional and local languages, the implementation of speech to APItext solutions has been difficult. As consumers and businesses in different parts of the country speak a variety of local languages, it is necessary to approach them with common solutions.

Impact of Economic Slowdown:

In industries such as the speech to text API market, the current global slowdown has resulted in a variety of impacts. The market has shown resilience and growth due to a number of factors, despite economic difficulties. In view of the growing use of these technologies by leading companies in different sectors, the market for speech to text API is set to grow. This is especially true when companies are trying to take advantage of the enormous amount of video content that exists. In addition, due to the availability of cost-effective cloud solutions, demand for speech to text API solutions is expected to rise among SMEs. This trend is a reflection of the broader digital transformation efforts undertaken by businesses to adapt to changing market conditions and consumer behaviour, exacerbated by the economic slowdown.

Due to its advantages such as minimal capital requirements and easy deployment, the cloud-based implementation model of speech to text's APIs is expected to experience significant growth. The COVID-19 pandemic has also encouraged the shift towards cloud-based models, pointing to the need for remote operability and flexibility of business operations. As businesses seek to optimize operations and reduce costs, this shift is in line with the broader trend in the market for digital and cloud services.

Impact of Russia Ukraine War:

The Russia Ukraine crisis has a nuanced effect on the speech to text API market, reflecting broader trends in global technology. Market dynamics have been affected by the virus, and companies may reduce their R&D expenditures on speech to text solutions for a short period of time which could hamper future development. Despite this, demand for these solutions is expected to surge due to social distancing and stay-at-home initiatives, finding applications in healthcare, e-learning, media, and entertainment to optimize operational execution. The market is also in a position to benefit from this shift towards Digital and Virtual Meetings.

Regionally, the availability of solutions, high technology expenditure and strong vendor presence in North America leads to a dominant share of revenue. Growth in this area is expected to be driven by demand for voice data insights and the adoption of smart virtual assistants. Due to the widespread use of voice-controlled devices and adoption of smart devices, the Asia Pacific market is predicted to grow at a faster rate.

The Russia-Ukraine crisis presents challenges, the Speech-to-Text API market's growth prospects remain strong, fuelled by technological advancements, changing work environments due to the pandemic, and the increasing adoption of smart devices globally.

An accurate research report requires proper strategizing as well as implementation. There are multiple factors involved in the completion of good and accurate research report and selecting the best methodology to compete the research is the toughest part. Since the research reports we provide play a crucial role in any company’s decision-making process, therefore we at SNS Insider always believe that we should choose the best method which gives us results closer to reality. This allows us to reach at a stage wherein we can provide our clients best and accurate investment to output ratio.

Each report that we prepare takes a timeframe of 350-400 business hours for production. Starting from the selection of titles through a couple of in-depth brain storming session to the final QC process before uploading our titles on our website we dedicate around 350 working hours. The titles are selected based on their current market cap and the foreseen CAGR and growth.

 

The 5 steps process:

Step 1: Secondary Research:

Secondary Research or Desk Research is as the name suggests is a research process wherein, we collect data through the readily available information. In this process we use various paid and unpaid databases which our team has access to and gather data through the same. This includes examining of listed companies’ annual reports, Journals, SEC filling etc. Apart from this our team has access to various associations across the globe across different industries. Lastly, we have exchange relationships with various university as well as individual libraries.

Secondary Research

Step 2: Primary Research

When we talk about primary research, it is a type of study in which the researchers collect relevant data samples directly, rather than relying on previously collected data.  This type of research is focused on gaining content specific facts that can be sued to solve specific problems. Since the collected data is fresh and first hand therefore it makes the study more accurate and genuine.

We at SNS Insider have divided Primary Research into 2 parts.

Part 1 wherein we interview the KOLs of major players as well as the upcoming ones across various geographic regions. This allows us to have their view over the market scenario and acts as an important tool to come closer to the accurate market numbers. As many as 45 paid and unpaid primary interviews are taken from both the demand and supply side of the industry to make sure we land at an accurate judgement and analysis of the market.

This step involves the triangulation of data wherein our team analyses the interview transcripts, online survey responses and observation of on filed participants. The below mentioned chart should give a better understanding of the part 1 of the primary interview.

Primary Research

Part 2: In this part of primary research the data collected via secondary research and the part 1 of the primary research is validated with the interviews from individual consultants and subject matter experts.

Consultants are those set of people who have at least 12 years of experience and expertise within the industry whereas Subject Matter Experts are those with at least 15 years of experience behind their back within the same space. The data with the help of two main processes i.e., FGDs (Focused Group Discussions) and IDs (Individual Discussions). This gives us a 3rd party nonbiased primary view of the market scenario making it a more dependable one while collation of the data pointers.

Step 3: Data Bank Validation

Once all the information is collected via primary and secondary sources, we run that information for data validation. At our intelligence centre our research heads track a lot of information related to the market which includes the quarterly reports, the daily stock prices, and other relevant information. Our data bank server gets updated every fortnight and that is how the information which we collected using our primary and secondary information is revalidated in real time.

Data Bank Validation

Step 4: QA/QC Process

After all the data collection and validation our team does a final level of quality check and quality assurance to get rid of any unwanted or undesired mistakes. This might include but not limited to getting rid of the any typos, duplication of numbers or missing of any important information. The people involved in this process include technical content writers, research heads and graphics people. Once this process is completed the title gets uploader on our platform for our clients to read it.

Step 5: Final QC/QA Process:

This is the last process and comes when the client has ordered the study. In this process a final QA/QC is done before the study is emailed to the client. Since we believe in giving our clients a good experience of our research studies, therefore, to make sure that we do not lack at our end in any way humanly possible we do a final round of quality check and then dispatch the study to the client.
