This dataset contains research-licensed oral language recordings from Nepal-related community projects. Access is limited to research and revitalization uses consistent with partner MoUs. No redistribution, no commercial resale, no training of public commercial models without written approval. You agree not to attempt re-identification of speakers and to delete data if access is revoked.

Nepal Oral Speech (Research)

Gated research speech corpus for approved researchers and partner techs (AkAiNp).

Clips with backbone license research only
Includes self and guardian modes when research license was chosen
Rich metadata for dialect / origin / consent versions
Not a substitute for the private API vault (private clips never land here by default)

Public users should use nepal-oral-packs-open and nepal-oral-demo instead.

Access

Request access on the Hub with affiliation + purpose.
Maintainers / stewards approve per MoU.
On revocation: remove access; downstream users must delete local copies.

This repository should be gated on the Hub.
