Text to speech

Text to speech needs a paid AI service to do its work. This site runs only tools that are free to use and that keep your files on your device, so it is not switched on here.

What it needs: A text-to-speech model
Why it is not on yet: This needs a model that produces audio, not text. A language-model key does nothing for it, which is why it does not sit in the AI text group. The output also needs an audio file returned to the browser, so it needs the job and storage path rather than the plain text route.
