Methodology

Data verification

How speech.dev sources, verifies, and updates facts-layer data for voice models, skills, and templates.

Two layers

Every entry has a facts layer — structured fields that should be replicable from public sources — and an optional operational notes layer, which is speech.dev's own dated assessment from production experience. The facts layer is what this page describes.

Verification

speech.dev attempts to keep facts-layer data verified against public sources: vendor pricing pages, API documentation, changelogs, and similar material. Each entry links the sources used. Where pricing is listed, entries include a last_verified date for when that pricing was last checked.

Operational notes are separate. They are not sourced from marketing material and are written to a specific review standard — production deployments, hands-on testing, or vendor disclosures only.

Limitations

Vendors change pricing, APIs, and availability without notice. A verified date is a snapshot, not a guarantee. Some fields may be missing while an entry is still in draft. Always confirm critical details against the linked vendor sources before relying on them.

Corrections

If you spot an error in the facts layer, use the contribute page or the Suggest an update panel on a model page. Each opens a structured GitHub issue with prefilled entry ids where possible. Include a primary source URL (pricing page, API docs, or changelog) for every change.
