Getting Started with Speech Synthesis

2 tutorials
intermediate

In today’s world, generating lifelike speech from text isn’t just about mimicking voices—it’s about creating experiences. Speech synthesis, or Text-to-Speech (TTS), is revolutionizing how we interact with technology, making communication more accessible and engaging. Whether you’re building a voice assistant, audiobooks, or interactive apps, TTS models bring words to life.

This campaign introduces you to the fundamentals of speech synthesis using the Coqui TTS library, a powerful and open-source tool for building TTS applications. You’ll start by understanding the core concepts behind TTS, get hands-on with basic code examples, and progress to creating a fully interactive TTS application with a user interface. By the end of this campaign, you’ll be able to generate natural-sounding speech across different voices and localizations.

Let’s bring your text to life with speech synthesis!
