What happened
Advanced Media is soliciting Zenn articles that use its AmiVoice API through December 16, 2026, as part of Zennfes Autumn 2026, where it is a Premier sponsor; one winner in each of two categories gets an Amazon gift card worth 50,000 yen.
Why it matters
The contest gives developers a reason to try the AmiVoice API and publish working examples, which could raise awareness of the speech-recognition service among Zenn's engineering audience.

Zennfes Autumn 2026 is Zenn's seasonal article-writing event, run by ClassMethod, in which sponsoring companies set their own themes. Advanced Media joins as a Premier sponsor with a theme built around its AmiVoice API, a service that lets developers add transcription and voice input to applications. The contest splits entries into a daily-life category and a business category, and Advanced Media decides the category at judging time based on each article's content.
The pitch leans on accessibility: a trial allows up to 20 hours of free use, and the AmiVoice Cloud Platform offers 60 free minutes per month, which lowers the cost of experimenting. For Advanced Media, the contest is a way to seed public examples of its API among Zenn's engineering readership, which could in turn make the service easier for other teams to evaluate.
