In 2012 the Bavarian Archive for Speech Signals started providing some of its tools from the field of spoken language in the form of Software as a Service (SaaS).This means users access the processing functionality over a web browser and therefore do not have to install complex software packages on a local computer.Amongst others, these tools include segmentation & labeling, grapheme-to-phoneme conversion, text alignment, syllabification and metadata generation, where all but the last are available for a variety of languages.Since its creation the number of available services and the web interface have changed considerably.We give an overview and a detailed description of the system architecture, the available web services and their functionality.Furthermore, we show how the number of files processed over the system developed in the last four years.
