TTS and Genre

Our customers have many use cases for TTS and we know that different uses require different TTS performances, which we also call genre. Right now we have models for the following genres: General: A catch-all use case. Works decently for everything. Conversational: Sounds like normal people having a natural conversation with a dependable range of emotions. When natural and human qualities are the goal, these are the voices to use. Narration: Works great for narrating books, articles, or newsreaders. IVR: Perfect for interactive voice agents, call centers, and food ordering. Humanlike performance with the natural cadence of a seasoned call center agent. Works great with filler words. Can have a conversational or more professional style depending on the voice parameter, and captures appropriate emotions based on callflow-specific text.
