Speed control

Learn how to adjust the speaking speed of your conversational AI agent.

Overview

The speed control feature allows you to adjust how quickly or slowly your agent speaks. This can be useful for:

  • Making speech more accessible for different audiences
  • Matching specific use cases (e.g., slower for educational content)
  • Optimizing for different types of conversations
Speed control settings under the Voice tab

Configuration

Speed is controlled through the speed parameter with the following specifications:

  • Range: 0.7 to 1.2
  • Default: 1.0
  • Type: Optional

How it works

The speed parameter affects the pace of speech generation:

  • Values below 1.0 slow down the speech
  • Values above 1.0 speed up the speech
  • 1.0 represents normal speaking speed

Extreme values near the minimum or maximum may affect the quality of the generated speech.

Best practices

  • Start with the default speed (1.0) and adjust based on user feedback
  • Test different speeds with your specific content
  • Consider your target audience when setting the speed
  • Monitor speech quality at extreme values
Values outside the 0.7-1.2 range are not supported.
