MS SAPI sdk equivalent on OSX

Question

I'm looking for an SDK that would allow me to have speech recognition on a OSX application.

I already have a working code for windows using sapi, to get speech recognition info from an audio file, and i would like to see how to do this in osx since something like SAPI is not available.

Thanks!

It’d help if you stated what exactly do you need. For example, would NSSpeechRecognizer be enough? – Spectroscope

Answer 1

The OS X equivalent is the Speech Recognition service:

http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/cocoa/conceptual/speech/Articles/RecognizeSpeech.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20002081-BCIHEBFH

Note that the Speech Recognition service is limited to listening for predefined command phrases. It cannot be used for dictation.
