Voice Recognition
Systems
would first like to thank all of our clients for 15 successful
years of being in business to provide quality speech
recognition solutions to our clients. We've seen tremendous
strides in technology over the past 15 years and with the
price of computer
systems dropping drastically and becoming more affordable
to everyone, advances in software and hardware technology
have made talking to your computer easier, faster
and more accurate then ever before. Keep an eye on our site for
further details.

When Voice Recognition Systems was founded 15
years ago, nobody had established a web site to market speech
recognition or even talk about it for that matter. We knew
we needed to fill that niche so Voice Recognition Systems
web page went on line in 1994 and became the worlds first
web page for voice recognition.. At that time we had to dial
long distance into a server just to receive our e-mail! Things
have certainly changed since then. Later on we secured a domain
name now known as www.talktoyourcomputer.com
What we had to establish then was what kind of
business model were we going to use? Marketing on the web wasn't
commonplace and nobody was doing it for speech
recognition so we had to develop the business model from scratch.
To this day nobody has written a book on how to market voice recognition.
Maybe we should because we don't like the way most companies approach
this business. Speech recognition is still somewhat new to the
marketplace and people who don't know about different speech
recognition software packages that are out there purchase
"off the shelf" retail store solutions that just don't
work. The cheap/low price solutions do not get the job done and
we have proved this over and over again. We never have and never
will sell $49 or $199 dollar speech recognition software packages.
Those who decide to go down that road, let us say buyer beware
to you in advance.
We turned away over $30,000.00 in business in 2001
and $27,000.00 in 2002 because we didn't want the headaches or
unhappy clients that would most certainly would have been the
result of it. Every week we get calls from people who have bought
"bargain basement" speech software from AOL or other
mass market discounters telling us that they can't get it to work
on their system. They are not aware that these are outdated/old
versions of software that come with $5.00 microphones and that
will not be supported by anybody after the sale. These are the
software packages that they could not sell and either must liquidate
them or be left holding worthless merchandise.
How we decided to design our business model was
to be an organization that focuses on the needs of our clients
rather then just taking orders from what then just becomes a customer.
What really is the difference between a customer and a client
anyway? If we look at Webster's Dictionary, both are nouns but
a customer is defined as one that purchases a commodity or service,
a client on the other hand is (1) a person who engages the professional
advice or services of another or (2) one that is under the protection
of another. With this in mind we decided that anyone who does
business with us is a client because we render professional advice
and services and we also attempt to protect the client from making
a wrong decision.
Our web page is of simple design. We wanted
it to also be informative and easy to navigate. Unlike other web
pages we tend to focus on speech recognition and the products
and solutions that go with them as that has contributed to our
success. We do not sell products that will not ensure your success
and the only products
we do sell are thoroughly tested and carefully thought about before
they are ever offered to our clients. If you would like our help
in making your speech
recognition solution a success, please do not hesitate to
