Webex and Voiceitt have teamed up to improve workplace accessibility for individuals with non-standard speech. Voiceitt’s speech recognition technology enables those with speech disabilities, degenerative diseases, brain injuries, developmental disorders, or strong accents to communicate accurately during video meetings. The technology customizes to individual users, learning their speech patterns and using machine learning algorithms to ensure reliable and flexible communication. Voiceitt for Webex is available now in the Webex Hub. This partnership is a significant step in enabling those with speech impairments to participate effectively and be understood during virtual meetings and fostering collaborative work environments where everyone’s voice is heard.
