Every labelled take (1,911) is one male speaker. The 1,107 early rows with no speaker field are the same speaker.

Where the dataset and the model stand today, what the next checkpoint needs, and the voices and recording conditions the dataset is still missing.
Counted from the public dataset on Hugging Face. A scheduled job refreshes these numbers.
Figures as of 2026-10-19 12:48 UTC, dataset revision 4cb4c84b.
The next checkpoint, v6, is planned at 360 minutes of code-switched audio. The bar compares it with the dataset's train split only, since the test split is never trained on. The training job counts its minutes in the parent dataset, Read-Aloud-Voice-Sentences, so v6 may land at a slightly different point than this bar suggests.

Every recording so far is one speaker's: Daniel, an Irish-accented English speaker in Jerusalem. The model learns that voice best. These are the gaps that more recordings would close.

Record some sentences →1 speaker, Irish-accented English
American, Australian and South African English speakers, and any other accent: people who mix Hebrew words into their English, whether they grew up with Hebrew or learned it later.
Record some sentences →4.4% of recordings
127 outdoors and 6 in a noisy room; the other 2,885 were recorded somewhere quiet indoors.
Record some sentences →0 recordings on an external mic
All 3,018 use a built-in microphone: 2,955 on a phone (OnePlus Nord 3 5G) and 63 on one laptop (ThinkPad E15 Gen 3). Headsets, earbuds, desk and lapel mics are all missing.
Record some sentences →What is being built around the dataset, beyond recording more of it.
The dataset is collected with Daniel's own capture app: a phone web app in the style of Common Voice. Read a sentence, record it, review it, next. Takes are pushed to Hugging Face in batches.
The app is built for one speaker today. Multi-tenancy is being explored, so that other people could record into the dataset with it too, each take tagged with its speaker.

| Version | Released | Status | Code-switched min |
|---|---|---|---|
| v1 | 2026-10-15 | Benchmarked | 77.4 |
| v2 | 2026-10-15 | Benchmarked | 120.1 |
| v3 | 2026-10-18 | Benchmarked | 196.1 |
| v4 | 2026-10-18 | Published, not benchmarked | 269.3 |
| v5 | 2026-10-18 | Published, not benchmarked | 294.2 |
| v6 | Next | Planned at 360 min | 360 |
| v7 | — | Planned at 450 min | 450 |
| v8 | — | Planned at 540 min | 540 |
Minutes for v1 to v5 are the code-switched audio each version was trained on. For v6 to v8 they are the planned trigger points, not results.
