How do you build something that could potentially be used by a billion people? Something that your mom would use and give critical comments about?
This was our challenge when we started working with some of India's largest online app players who serve more than 100 million users today and with ambitions and potential of reaching out to 10x more in the next few years.
Starting with running on the field user research (https://www.slanglabs.in/blog/does-voice-augmented-experience-in-apps-help-emergent-users-a-field-research-report) to running live experiments inside the app we were able to prove that Voice in-app, when done right, indeed works, and people love it.
Like 42% of people who did voice search at least once, did not go back to using typed search.
If you did more than 5 voice searches, you are a convert and rarely go back to typed search.
10-15% higher conversion rates of people actually placing an order when they have tried voice at least once.
In this talk, we will share our experience of adding Slang's multi-lingual Voice Assistant into some of India's most popular apps and the interesting results that were derived from it.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
In his public lecture, Christian Timmerer provides insights into the fascinating history of video streaming, starting from its humble beginnings before YouTube to the groundbreaking technologies that now dominate platforms like Netflix and ORF ON.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

46. We also added
a mute button
to help people
who wanted
more privacy
47. They tried to “long
press” the mic icon,
like what they are
used to in WhatsApp
48. The first thing they
say is “hello” and
broke the NLP
system
49. All these and more
enabled us to get
better traction with
end users using the
Assistant
50. 26% of users who did
Voice search, preferred
to use only that
Voice Only
Search users
Voice + typed Search users
But most preferred a
mix of both
51. Contextual coachmarks had a ~70% higher
conversion than showing coachmarks
only at the beginning
13% conversion when showing the
coachmark during onboarding
22% conversion when showing the
coachmark contextually
52. Even though we gave the option to choose between
multiple languages, most still preferred English
53. There were some real power users
who did more than 300 searches
54. We are hoping all our
moms (and dads) would
benefit from this and
not just ours :-)
