Our NLP uses a combination of rule-based and neural network–based techniques. This is made possible by a layer of natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, which can programmatically read, analyze, and interpret written language. Whether it is imported from your website in HTML format or manually imported as plain text, your content is automatically converted into SSML before being processed by the AI voice. This is not feasible for the majority of publishers.īeyondWords, on the other hand, adds the SSML tags for you. Fixing this requires an understanding not only of SSML, but of the international phonetic alphabet (IPA) - symbols that linguists use to represent speech sounds. Let’s say the voice is mispronouncing ‘Joe Biden’.

Others, like Amazon Polly, give you the option to manually insert SSML tags. Some text-to-speech services only allow you to input plain text, meaning you can’t achieve higher-quality outputs through SSML.

Using SSML therefore ensures a higher-quality voice output. SSML tags provide extra information to the AI voice, clarifying pronunciations and improving speech flow. Setting voices up for successĪI voices can interpret text in two formats: plain text, or speech synthesis markup language (SSML). It’s thanks to our natural language processing algorithms. Lots of text-to-speech service providers use AI voices from Amazon Web Services, Yandex, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform.īut these voices sound best when you use them in BeyondWords.*
