Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The business problem was read a legal notice to the customer in order to stipulate the contract automatically. We need also other IBM Watson services: speech to text: in order to analyze human response tone analyzer: in order to retrieve the sentiment of the customer The join of all IBM Watson services was a great solution for our case.

Pros

Pronunciation
Many languages supported.
Many voice supported.

Cons

Add sentiment variation.
Add parameter in order to change the characteristic of the voice.
Use custom voice in order to tune the speaker.

Likelihood to Recommend

I advise Watson for all scenarios where you need AI to speak. I don't use this for this goal, but I suppose that could be a good solution for tourism and travel: companies in the hospitality industry can make it easier for people to get around and offer tours in numerous languages, all at the same time. In telecommunications, could be used to create customized messaging that the caller can use with customers, and it can generate words from a customer’s records that are read to them in a professional and friendly voice. It's very good for English, for Italian is a little "robotic" but the pronunciation is right.

March 15, 2022

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

With our online school software we have decided to opt for IBM Watson Text to Speech and it has saved us a lot of time and effort with regards to explaining modules where there's no video tutorials, I love using Alison(The American English Female voice) amongst the others simply because we are able to change Alison's speech and expressions using the SSML & the Voice Transformational SSML tool.

Pros

Allows to change voice expressions
Allows changing of speed in a sentence and not the entire paragraph.

Cons

We could use with other voices from different dialect.
Try to allow a mixture of languages.

Likelihood to Recommend

IBM Watson Text to Speech is suitable for personal use and not for commercial use, I love the fact that it's a pay as you use product, you can you can easily download the Text-to-Speech audio files and if you are an individual that loves listening rather than reading or recording their voice then this is a perfect software for you.
