Hi Bruce,

As I have already advised in an earlier post, Vestec does offer a $25 starter kit for its speech recognition engine from its own webstore.

We are a partner of Digium but are also an an independent software company that supports all major contact center and soft-PBX platforms for its speech engine. And so $25 ASR starter kit is an excellent means for potential customers to try out our speech recognition engine at low cost.

In due time, ASR 2.1 - including its starter kit version - will become available from Digium store. As of now, we have not released the latest ASR software to Digium as their web store does not allow us to charge annual software maintenance (covering patches and upgrades), a standard practice in the speech industry.

Regards,
-Kashif

I am not sure if Vestec used to sell this on their site back then. I could be wrong though.
