Spinvox converts voice to text and has raised a rumoured £25million so far and employs 130 people. It is based in Marlow and has already generated sales of £2million. But the service is slow. You speak into a mobile phone and wait for a few minutes (let us be generous) and back comes your text or off to your blog or wherever you sent it. I could just about recognise my message so there is work to be done on the speech recognition. However as the volume of messages climbs to monthly figures of millions and tens of millions, Spinvox has turned to Tony Robinson and the Cambridge Cluster to accelerate and accelerate the software. Tony is building a team of ten people but experts in this field are few and far between, even in the Cambridge Cluster. I hope Tony receive some good options to make this product scaleable!
