Amberscript - Automated speech translation for public organisations

Many Dutch municipalities, like the municipality of Staphorst, have implemented speech recognition model through a company product, AmberScript specialized in speech recognition, for providing automated speech translation coming from municipality council and bringing transparency on how decisions are made for the citizens. The product has been specifically trained on data from the public sector meetings. A dataset of more than 1.000 hours of audio with transcriptions was compiled, cleaned and processed into the AI Model. Now the product is capable of transcribing many of the discussions held in the municipal meetings, allowing citizens with hearing imparities to follow political debates online.
