We need someone from Thailand who can turn English transcripts into clear, natural-sounding voice recordings by Thai english speakers (with Thai accent, but doesn't have to be a fluent english speak as long as can read the transcripts) and annotate the recording in our platform.

Your job is straightforward: read the English text exactly as written, record it in a quiet environment with your mobile phone, and deliver clean, high-quality WAV files and upload to the platform provided by us and then annotate the data.

These recordings will be used strictly for my company’s ASR data annotation, so consistency in tone and pronunciation is more important than commercial polish. A neutral, easy-to-understand delivery is perfect; there’s no need for dramatic voice-over flair.

Before we start, I’ll send you a short sample script so we can confirm audio quality and pacing.

Sample Deliverables
• One WAV file for each transcript ( around 1 mins)
• Name the file with your own name

Requirement for the Sample Voice:
- Record in a quiet room
- Do not wear headphones while recording
- Keep your mouth away from the microphone to avoid breath/airflow noise ( this is very important)

Audio acceptance standards
- Word accuracy ≥ 97%
- Signal-to-noise ratio ≥ 15 dB
- Automated system quality check, with back-end audio review

Sample Script: ( you need to read all below 4 lines)
> a. If you see a leopard in the early morning, stay very still. Watch it pull its food up into the tree, this keeps the meat safe from other animals.
> b. Please lower the front passenger window halfway, reduce the airflow to a medium level, and set the temperature to twenty-three degrees.
> c. Turn right at the traffic lights, drive straight through the next intersection, cross the bridge, and stop near the entrance to the railway station.
> d. I recently tried to just understand a repeated tire-pressure warning, figuring it would be pretty straightforward. Instead, the warning returned two days after all tires were checked. From what I've seen in the records, manual readings remain within the recommended range. To figure out what happened, I started noting temperature changes and recent road conditions.

2. **Formal recording (starts once you pass the audition)**
A dedicated recording app + tutorial provided; you can record on your phone
Total project volume: 20,000 hours — plenty of work available
No fixed working hours; record anytime, anywhere

Annotation: once we have confirmed your sample is good, we will arrange the data annotation pilot run. if all passed, we will discuss with the hours efforts you can commit to the project per month.

This is a very reliable, long-term project. we require 20,000 hours of sample data for our ASR model training. the client is one of the largest AI Giants. If you are a Thai who can speak english and can understand the English, please reach to me with the samples.
