A natural text to speech engine improves the accessibility of Job Market Finland

  • News

It is now possible to listen to the contents of Job Market Finland with the help of text to speech (TTS) voices produced by a.i.mater.

A natural TTS engine has been added to Job Market Finland as a new functionality. TTS pauses and emphasizes speech in a human-like way, making speech sound more natural.

With TTS, you can listen to all content pages at Job Market Finland. With the ‘Listen’ button on the page, you can start and stop listening.

You can listen to the contents of Job Market Finland in Finnish, Swedish and English. The texts in Finnish are read by a.i.mater’s Ilona TTS voice, and the Finnish-Swedish voice is called Amanda. Job Market Finland is the first website where Amanda is used.

The TTS feature improves the accessibility of Job Market Finland, although it does not replace, for example, the screen reading devices used by the visually impaired.

You can read more about TTS solutions on a.i.mater's website.
