As part of LEAD's continued efforts to provide innovative and valuable development tools to programmers, we are happy to announce an update to LEADTOOLS v22 that includes support for Speech Recognition. LEADTOOLS Recognition SDK Technology is trusted by tens of thousands of developers worldwide to deliver powerful, end-to-end recognition features to help build better applications.

The LEADTOOLS Document Editor is a powerful zero-footprint editing solution for web applications. Now with speech recognition, the Editor enables users to transcribe audio to text, edit the result, and save to one of many formats including PDF, DOCX, and TXT. No server computing required! All of this functionality is performed locally in the browser eliminating any issues that slow network connections cause for web applications.

The countdown is on! The Microsoft Build virtual event will be held next week, May 25-27th. We look forward to hearing the latest in developer tools and techniques that Microsoft is sure to announce! Since we had such a great time last year recapping the event with @CSharpFritz, we’re doing it again! Join us on May 28th for a Build Wrap Up Show. During the show, we will recap all of the highlights from Microsoft Build, hear the latest and greatest from various Microsoft speakers, and - of course - you can enter to win awesome prizes!
