Details

What we tuned for this language

  • Rhythm before pronunciation

    Spanish is syllable-timed: every syllable takes roughly the same time, unlike the stress-timed English most models are trained on. Getting that wrong makes a technically correct sentence sound foreign, so our Spanish data is Spanish.

  • Accents that change the word

    The written accent is not decoration. It is what separates one word from another in ordinary sentences, and our normalizer keeps it intact instead of stripping it on the way in.

  • Amounts, dates and references

    Spanish groups thousands and writes dates day-first. Amounts, order numbers and dates are expanded into Spanish words before synthesis, so a total is read as money rather than as a string of digits.

FAQ

Spanish text to speech: common questions

How many Spanish voices does this page have?

It plays 4 natively recorded Spanish voices. The full catalogue is larger, and the same Kugel 3 model also covers the other 25 languages we support.

Can I control how names and brands are pronounced?

Yes, through the pronunciation dictionary. You add the word once and every Spanish voice on your account reads it the same way, which matters for product names and for place names outside Spain.

Is it fast enough for phone support?

Yes. Audio streams while the text is still arriving, so the caller hears the first words before the sentence has been written. The API works directly with Pipecat and LiveKit.
