This paper announces the early release of SpokesBiz, a freely available
corpus of conversational Polish developed within the CLARIN-BIZ project and
comprising over 650 hours of recordings. The transcribed recordings have been
diarized and manually annotated for punctuation and casing. We outline the
general structure and content of the corpus, showcasing selected applications
in linguistic research, evaluation and improvement of automatic speech
recognition (ASR) systems
