Ivona

IVONA Software provides text-to-speech solutions applicable to many areas of life. All new voices are developed using the award-winning BrightVoice technology. BrightVoice is the result of 10 years of research and development to produce synthesized speech that is virtually indistinguishable from professional voice over recordings. IVONA CEO Lukasz Osowski noted: "Our mission is to deliver the best possible speech user experience for a wide range of devices and applications requiring high-quality Voice User Interfaces. We are laser-focused on maintaining and increasing the current rapid pace of voice development for text-to-speech solutions in various languages, while ensuring that our speech engines are optimized to meet the requirements of device manufacturers." IVONA Text-to-Speech (TTS) comes in different configurations and footprints for a variety of mobile devices, desktop, network and server applications or speech cloud. IVONA TTS solutions are used to enhance e-reading experiences on smartphones and tablets. Over 2 million mobile users downloaded IVONA voices and IVONA TTS HQ for Android from Google Play to replace the standard Voice User Interfaces (VUI) on their mobile devices and apps. IVONA also partners with assistive technology developers to make digital media accessible to people who are blind or visually impaired. All added voices such as "Tatyana" bring new opportunities for these individuals to actively participate in society and find new educational and employment opportunities. IVONA Software works closely with innovative e-Learning application developers. Our high-quality text-to-speech voices assist foreign language learners and students with learning disabilities who can save text documents as audio files and transfer them to their media players and mobile devices. Busy professionals may want to save news articles and audio files for reading later or create pre-recorded messages for telephone response systems. We also assist telecommunications companies as they seek for solutions that allow reading out loud dynamically created content (e.g. account balance or customer data), and interpret any text, long or short, in a high-quality, natural-sounding voice, without the time and expense of a recording studio.
