SpeechAce
Speech recognition API that scores pronunciation, fluency, and speaking proficiency.
About
SpeechAce is a developer API for spoken-language assessment: submit audio and get scores on pronunciation, fluency, grammar, coherence, and vocabulary, aligned to IELTS, PTE, and CEFR rubrics, down to phoneme-level feedback. It now covers Spanish and French alongside English and is used by publishers, language-learning apps, universities, and K-12 platforms.
It is strictly a B2B developer product — there is no consumer app — with Basic, Pro, and Premium tiers priced by audio length and scoring depth. The patented scoring models are a real differentiator in a crowded pronunciation space.
