Amazon Polly launches Conversational Speaking Style voices

Posted on: Nov 25, 2019

Amazon Polly is a service that turns text into lifelike speech, and today we are excited to announce the general availability of our first Conversational speaking style voices. This speaking style was developed using the latest Neural Text-to-Speech technology, and the voices were designed to sound natural, friendly, and approachable in a dialog. The Conversational speaking style can be used with the US English voices Matthew and Joanna, and is the second speaking style launched by Polly, following the release of Newscaster Speaking Style voices in US English in July 2019.

For more details, please visit the Amazon Polly documentation, check the full list of text-to-speech voices, log in to the Amazon Polly console to try them out, and review our regional availability, service limits, and updated FAQs.
