The paper presents the Prosit software, a plug-in for Praat (Boersma, Weenink, 1992-2018), one of the most renowned programs for carrying out phonetic research. The Prosit plug-in is designed to help researchers in (i) making a flexible search on corpora of sound files with Praat TextGrid annotations; (ii) building their own corpus by editing and managing sound files and TextGrids; (iii) listening, visualizing, inspecting and analyzing sounds that match the search criteria. The rationale behind the project is the observed use of different schemes in sound annotation carried out via Praat, an instrument whose potential benefits allow searches to be carried out on sound corpora built up with different approaches. The Prosit plug-in also makes it possible to apply a number of either batch or single operations on the search outcomes.
