Speak Reference Architecture

Overview

Production architecture for Speak language learning apps: client, API gateway, assessment engine, and progress store.

Prerequisites

  • Completed speak-install-auth setup
  • Valid API credentials configured
  • Understanding of Speak API patterns

Instructions

Step 1: Configuration

Configure reference architecture for your Speak integration. Speak uses OpenAI's GPT-4o for AI tutoring and Whisper for speech recognition.

// speak_reference_architecture_config.ts
const config = {
  apiKey: process.env.SPEAK_API_KEY!,
  appId: process.env.SPEAK_APP_ID!,
  environment: process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development',
};

Step 2: Implementation

// Core implementation for speak reference architecture
import { SpeakClient } from '@speak/language-sdk';

const client = new SpeakClient(config);

// Production-ready implementation
async function setup() {
  const health = await client.health.check();
  console.log("Status:", health.status);
  return health;
}

Step 3: Verification

curl -sf -H "Authorization: Bearer $SPEAK_API_KEY" https://api.speak.com/v1/health | jq .

Output

  • Speak Reference Architecture configured and verified
  • Production-ready Speak integration
  • Error handling and monitoring in place
