Definition
Text-to-speech (TTS) is the technology that converts written text into spoken audio. In voice AI, TTS generates the agent's voice responses, and modern neural TTS produces highly natural, human-like speech.
Why it matters
TTS quality shapes how human and trustworthy the agent sounds, which affects caller experience and conversion.
