   Fast

   It's fast - but for an API, not the fastest speech-to-text. For a long while I hadn't done research and trusted them. Then tried Whisper and Picovoice. On-device latency is nothing comparable with cloud APIs. If latency is important go with Whisper or Picovoice. If customization is also important go with Picovoice.

   don't get me wrong it's still faster than amazon, Microsoft or Assemblyai

   🏁 Competitors: Picovoice.ai, Google Cloud Speech API, AssemblyAI, Speechmatics, Microsoft Azure, Amazon

   👍 Pros:    Fast|Fast sales|A free demo|Supports multiple languages

   👎 Cons:    Slow support for free customers|Limited free version

• Building a Live Proctoring System to Detect Multiple Speakers

  Lastly, we will be using Deepgram Audio Diarization APIs to get speaker details from a sample audio clip. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• How do I begin building AI tools for myself?

  There are other AI-powered APIs out there to consider, too. For example, Deepgram can be used to transcribe audio (better than Whisper, offered by OpenAI), ElevenLabs can be used to generate speech from text (including using custom voices, which OpenAI's TTS can't currently do), etc. Depending on what you're trying to make, a combination of these services may be what you need. In any case, Python is going to be... Source: 7 months ago

• Create a realtime closed captioning solution with Deepgram and Ably

  Historically it's been challenging to provide closed captioning for live experiences, be it a live interview, a sports game with commentary, or a livestream. But Deepgram's AI tooling has changed this, allowing users to easily convert realtime streams of audio into accurate transcripts. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Create your own AI voice assistant bot with Node.js using Google Bard

  Create a new AWS IAM user and give it access to Amazon Polly. Get the AWS Access Key and AWS Secret Key. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Text to speech software for youtube vlogs, IG reels and tik tok?

  Amazon Polly it’s the most realistic text to speech I heard so far. Source: about 1 year ago

• Where there’s a screen there’s a way

  This was a long time ago, so I used Ivona voices and the program TextAloud (though I admit I pirated them because they were/are expensive). Looking into it Ivona was bought by Amazon and replaced by Amazon Polly which looks like it will fulfill your needs pretty well! Source: about 1 year ago

• Level Up Your Blog With Writer Analytics and Text-to-Speech

  I was inspired by a post from Ran Isenberg last week. He created an automation to take his blog posts, run them through Amazon Polly, and create a spoken form of his content. His automation emails him a copy of the output so he can save it on his site and enable readers to listen to the post. This is great for consumers who are in the car or have accessibility needs. - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• AI replacing voice actors for audiobooks

  Because the “AI software” is likely offered at an API and not everyone is skilled with programming to utilise it meaningfully. See https://aws.amazon.com/polly/. Source: about 1 year ago
