What is Text-to-Speech (TTS)?
Text-to-Speech converts written text into natural-sounding spoken output. It's the voice of smart speakers, accessibility tools, AI narration, and the response side of every voice agent.
What is an example of Text-to-Speech?
When a voice agent says "Your appointment is confirmed for Thursday at 2pm," the audio is generated by a TTS system, often conditioned on a specific voice identity.
How does Text-to-Speech (TTS) work?
Modern TTS combines a text-to-spectrogram model with a neural vocoder that turns the spectrogram into a waveform. Newer zero-shot systems can clone a voice from a few seconds of reference audio.
How does ai-coustics help Text-to-Speech (TTS)?
We don't build TTS, but our models sit on the input side of the voice loop. Even the most natural TTS is wasted if the ASR on the way in is misled by noisy audio - which is where Quail closes the reliability gap.
