API Text To Speech
Text to Audio API for voiceovers, mobile applications, e-learning platforms and more. Get access to 700 realistic AI voices in 100 languages.
Using a text-to-speech (TTS) API to convert text into spoken audio has become incredibly useful for lots of different types of applications. Current generation TTS technology uses speech synthesis with entire paragraphs of text to turn written text into realistic voices that sound natural and are easy to listen to. The result is very close to native language speakers and professional voice actors thanks to machine learning models that take the written text and generate lifelike speech that closely mimics how people actually talk.
Text to Audio API
Use our Text To-Speech API to create innovative interactions across various digital platforms. By utilizing voice AI APIs, developers can generate speech that is clear as a professionally recorded voice-over, with a natural sounding voice close to a professional voice actor. Offering such audio content dynamically, at a fraction of a price compared to recording the same content with human voices, can help you enhance user engagement significantly at scale and on a budget. This capacity to produce lifelike audio from text allows applications to communicate with users in a more personal and direct way, making technology accessible and friendly. TTS APIs are also becoming crucial in developing responsive systems that can interact with users through voice commands and responses, supporting hands-free operations and delivering a smoother, more intuitive user experience.
Bring audio content to new categories of users with our speech APIs. You can generate content with AI voices tailored to suit your audiences with various languages and dialects, breaking down linguistic and accessibility barriers. This helps you market applications to larger audiences globally, and helps bring previously excluded categories of users benefit from from digital innovations, especially those with visual impairments or reading difficulties. Text to speech APIs can transform written media into audible formats, providing a vital service for people who require or prefer auditory learning or entertainment. Open up new avenues for user interaction and create more inclusive and versatile applications.
Best text to speech API
The Narakeet Text to Speech API makes it easy to mix different voices and content from different languages in the same request, and to generate audio files from a single word to entire audiobooks. Other text to speech APIs usually restrict generated speech to a single voice, and require complex SSML (speech synthesis markup language) controls for fine-tuning the content. Narakeet makes this easy with stage directions, allowing you to easily include multiple voices, modify voice pitch and a lot more.
Another great feature of our TTS APIs is the ability to tweak the speaking rate of the spoken audio. This is especially useful in educational tools, where different users might need the content delivered at different speeds. By adjusting the speaking rate, you can make sure the audio is just right for your audience, making it easier for them to follow along.
Support for multiple languages and multiple accents is a big plus with Narakeet’s TTS APIs. This means you can cater to users from different parts of the world, making sure your content is understandable and accessible to everyone. With the wide range of supported languages available through a TTS API, you can generate speech in various languages, even those that might be less commonly supported, expanding your content’s reach.
API voices
With more than 700 AI voices available through the API, Narakeet has one of the biggest online libraries of realistic, natural-sounding voice options. Covering everything from various dialects for popular languages (more than 10 regional English accents, four French, four Spanish, three German) to small regional languages like Maltese and Icelandic, our API makes it easy to build applications relying on speech synthesis for a global audience. Whether you’re developing e-learning platforms, multimedia content, or virtual assistants, Narakeet’s extensive voice library ensures that you can deliver high-quality, contextually appropriate voiceovers tailored to the specific needs of your users, and makes us a trusted choice for developers looking to create inclusive and engaging user experiences.

What kind of applications is the Narakeet TTS generator API suitable for?
Our AI voice generators work best for generating content before publishing, and they can be used to convert a lot of text content at scale quickly to audio. This makes them ideal for creating podcasts, audiobooks, training materials, and other pre-recorded content where quality and consistency are paramount. However, they are not well suited for real-time conversation patterns and sub-second latency, which are critical for interactive applications like live customer service chatbots or voice assistants. The processing time required for generating natural-sounding AI voices means there may be delays in response, making these tools better suited for non-interactive, pre-generated audio scenarios rather than live, dynamic interactions.
Is the text to speech API free?
Narakeet text to speech API requires a commercial account. You can try out the voices available for the text to speech API free using our web site text to audio tool, with the same capabilities and configuration as you would be able to access with the API.
How good are the TTS voices?
Over the years, TTS technology has gotten really good, offering a range of speech voices to choose from. You can pick from both synthetic voices and more realistic voices that suit the tone of your content. For instance, if you’re creating a professional tutorial, you might go for a more formal voice, while a fun, animated voice might be perfect for a children’s book. For video game characters or sci-fi TV and radio content, synthetic robotic voices might fit best. The ability to select from multiple voices means you can tailor the spoken audio to better connect with your audience.
Integrating our TTS APIs into your projects is pretty straightforward, thanks to our REST API interfaces. You can just POST content using a regular HTTPS connection, without a need to download or install any kind of client software. We published simple TTS API examples on GitHub in all major programming languages. This means developers can easily add speech synthesis to their apps by sending written text to the TTS API and getting the spoken audio back. This opens up all sorts of possibilities, from having a voice assistant read aloud notifications to creating interactive tools that provide spoken feedback.
The quality of speech synthesis we see today is truly impressive. TTS technology can now produce lifelike speech that often sounds just like a real person talking. Artificial intelligence plays a big role here, driving machine learning models that can create speech voices with natural flow, rhythm, and emphasis. These models have been trained on loads of data, so they’re really good at turning written text into spoken audio that feels engaging and authentic.
Using text-to-speech technology can enable your users to interact with digital content in a more interative and intuitive way. With TTS APIs, you can easily convert text into spoken audio that’s very natural and engaging, but it is also accessible to people all over the world.
