Why the wheel?  Why the car?  We didn’t invent the speech-to-text application that runs on your smart phone.  We didn’t invent Dragon or Speechnotes or Watson.  We’re certainly not going to reinvent speech-to-text.

There’s a point here and it runs something like this:  when computers evolved, they first appeared with teletype keys,.  If you remember this, it means you’re older than dirt.  And you can remind us that teletype was not anything at all like the keyboard you are accustomed to using today.  Only later, as computer languages evolved, did it occur to the rocket scientist dujour to adopt the typewriter keyboard.  The typewriter had been around for at least a hundred years.  The point is… computer designers did not take it upon themselves to re-invent the keyboard.  I think they tried, but people pretty much weren’t buying.  So, they adapted the thing that they had (and the thing that people kinda liked…) to the computer.  What a great idea!  BeSpoKn is an idea for leveraging speech-to-text to talk to a database.  To do things that databases can do.  You can test drive beSpoKn right here.

Not to change the subject, but some of the things that you will find on the website will be things that you will hear.  In other words, things that have been spoken and captured.

We are engaged in the custom design of computer and smart phone applications – bespoke designers, so to speak.

Using beSpoKn means you can update your data, basically, by talking.   The engine that makes it work is called ‘beSpoKn’.   The full application is designed to permit automated creation of spoken word interfaces to databases and websites – a tool for creating and activating flexible semantic nodes and mapping those nodes to database contents.  In other words, it’s an application for building application interfaces.
