We introduce Earth Virtual Expert (EVE), the first open-source, end-to-end initiative for developing and deploying domain-specialized LLMs for Earth Intelligence. At its core is EVE-Instruct, a domain-adapted 24B model built on Mistral Small 3.2 and optimized for reasoning and question answering. On newly constructed Earth Observation and Earth Sciences benchmarks, it outperforms comparable models while preserving general capabilities.We release curated training corpora and the first systematic domain-specific evaluation benchmarks, covering MCQA, open-ended QA, and factuality. EVE further integrates RAG and a hallucination-detection pipeline into a production system deployed via API and GUI, supporting 350 pilot users. All models, datasets, and code are publicly available.

Data availability is crucial for advancing artificial intelligence applications, including voice-based technologies. As content creation, particularly in social media, experiences increasing demand, translation and text-to-speech (TTS) technologies have become essential tools. Notably, the performance of these TTS technologies is highly dependent on the quality of the training data, emphasizing the mutual dependence of data availability and technological progress. This paper introduces an end-to-end tool to generate high-quality datasets for text-to-speech (TTS) models to address this critical need for high-quality data. The contributions of this work are manifold and include: the integration of language-specific phoneme distribution into sample selection, automation of the recording process, automated and human-in-the-loop quality assurance of recordings, and processing of recordings to meet specified formats. The proposed application aims to streamline the dataset creation process for TTS models through these features, thereby facilitating advancements in voice-based technologies.
