Summary
Traditional voice production process by voice actors in a studio environment is expensive, time consuming and difficult to adapt to multiple languages. Text to speech (TTS) solutions available in the market are trying to overcome the bottlenecks in the traditional voice production pipeline, but fail to deliver the same level of emotion and prosody of human voices. To overcome these problems, Voiseed designed a ground-breaking Expressive TTS platform, driven by proprietary deep learning algorithms, to create virtual human-like voices, emotionally resonant, through a cost-efficient and time-saving process. Voiseed will offer Voice as a Service so that entertainment, e-learning and advertising companies will be enabled to generate and dub virtual voices into any target language, keeping the required prosody. During the project, Voiseed aims to develop a high quality unique expressive speech data set to release on the market a platform with more than 32 emotions in 16 languages.
