# Text-to-speech (TTS)

> Convert text to your desired AI voice.

A feature that creates various styles of AI voices (TTS, Text-to-Speech) by entering text prompts.

## How to use

Request your desired voice and content in the Chat.

```text theme={null}
Read 'Hello, this is Carat AI' in a male voice.
```

```text theme={null}
Read this script in a bright, cheerful female tone: (script content)
```

```text theme={null}
Say 'Happy birthday!' in a 5-year-old child's voice.
```

<Tip>
  **Getting better results**

  The more specific your request, the better. Rather than just 'male voice', try specifying age range (middle-aged man), gender (female), and tone/acting style (calmly, whispering).
</Tip>

<Info>
  **Creating natural-sounding voices**

  * For more natural delivery, try including fillers like 'um...', 'uh...' or directives like '(breathing sound)' directly in your script.
  * If you're not sure which voice to use, request "Give me 3 versions with different voice actors" to compare.
  * Generated TTS audio can be used directly as video narration using the [Add audio to video](/en/features/video/add-audio-to-video) feature.
