Type: Contract/Freelance

About the Project

We are seeking professional Voice specalists to contribute to the launch of a revolutionary interactive calendar device. Your voice will be crucial in building the core test dataset to fine-tune the device’s voice activation system, ensuring optimal responsiveness for its market debut.

This is a straightforward, high-impact task perfect for an easy earner with a high-quality recording setup. All collected audio data will be used strictly for internal device testing and improvement.

As a vocalist this would be an easier side earner as you likely already have the microphone required which is why we have advertised this job to you.
