Learn more about text-to-speech

Give your agent the final script, listener context and delivery direction. It can then choose a suitable voice and test the lines most likely to expose pronunciation or pacing problems.

Direct the delivery, not just the voice

Describe audience, language, tone, pace and speaking situation. Mark names, numbers, abbreviations and specialist terms that need exact pronunciation, and say which wording must not change.

How can I improve text-to-speech pronunciation?

Provide phonetic guidance or a spoken equivalent for difficult terms, then test those lines in a short sample. Natural punctuation and shorter sentences can also improve pauses and emphasis.

Divide long narration into reviewable sections

Approve a representative passage first, then generate long scripts in logical chunks with consistent voice direction. Check transitions, loudness and pronunciation before joining the final audio.
