Windows Speech

Built-in Windows TTS (and STT). Free, offline, basic quality.

Windows Speech uses Windows' built-in speech synthesis (and transcription). Free, offline, supports any languages you have installed in Windows. Output quality is basic compared to neural TTS — useful as a free fallback or for offline-only setups.

Windows Speech is experimental and content is censored by Windows itself — explicit phrases may be silently dropped or refused.

Setup

Make sure your language is installed in Windows

Settings → Time & Language → Language → Add a language. Make sure the Text-to-speech capability is included.

Add to Voxta

Manage Services → + Add Services → Windows Speech → Add.

Pick a voice from the available Windows TTS voices. Click Save.

Note

The same Windows Speech module also provides STT — see Windows Speech under Speech-to-Text.
