Re: Is the google speech recognition and text to speech engine under free license?

Andre,

You found the mailing list for the HTML5 speech API, a web standard that
will hopefully be supported in all web browsers eventually. Chrome already
supports the speech recognition part of the API, and it supports the
synthesis part of the API behind a flag.

The APIs you linked to are Google-specific APIs, they have nothing to do
with this list.

The first API (speech-api, for speech recognition) is only for personal and
development use. You can't use it to build a public service, commercial or
non-commercial. You can find out more information here:
https://developers.google.com/apis-explorer/#p/

The second API is an internal API used by Google Translate. It's not an
official API, and it's totally unsupported, and it may disappear at any
time.

Hope that helps,
- Dominic
