Text-to-Speech (TTS)

Text-to-speech (TTS) is AI technology that converts written text into natural-sounding spoken audio. Modern TTS providers like ElevenLabs, OpenAI, and Google offer dozens of voices with configurable style (calm, excited, dramatic), speed, and pitch. TTS is the voice engine behind AI-generated video narration.
