I have the same question. I have received a goverment support to prepare a project for the state. I am planning to create a website and mobile applications for the use of stundets in Turkey. The three key elements I need in the website and mobile applicaitons is the use of *Text-to-Speech. Speech recognition and the Translation* features. As far as I have researched so far, Google's Speech recognition has high accuracy rates both in Turkish and English. Along with this, the translation and Text-to-Speech functions suit my needs the best. However, since I will found a commercial company and do the project within this company for commercial purposes ( the goverment support is for founding a commercial company and gain profit by serving in the desired fields like education), I am curious about whether I could use the above mentioned features of Google for free, or would I have to pay for it? Moreover, will there be limitations to the use of these services when large number of students use them at the same time. I mean, would google limit the use to a certain number of users simultaneously?
One other question is, does Google give its Speech Recognition API either for free or charged? By the way, is there a link for the terms and uses for these services. I tried this link (http://research.google.com/university/translate/terms.html ) but it seems to be broken. Kind regards, Tumer ALTAS 13 Aralık 2010 Pazartesi 16:25:36 UTC+2 tarihinde Edward yazdı: > > Hello, > > Are there any protocols or procedures in place now regarding using one > or more of the Google APIs in a commercial application? > > I am specifically interested in using Google Translate and Google Text > To Speech in a commercial e-Learning application but other than the > Terms of Service which imply you cannot use the APIs in a commercial > application, are there any provisions for this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google AJAX APIs" group.
