YouTube Features IVONA's Voices

IVO has prepared, for the purposes of the campaign, a short, 42 seconds long video which has already won 11 honors in the YouTube Science & Technology category. IVONA TTS introduces itself to the world, in this video, encouraging at the same time a viewer to test it himself or herself. This is accompanied by human faces morphing thanks to the latest 3D graphics technology, speaking with IVONA's voices. These voices are indistinguishable from a natural one. Visit YouTube and enter Ivona TTS in the "Search" Field to find out for yourself.

On IVO Software's corporate website, IVONA TTS can be tried out by everyone interested. You just enter any text in the appropriate window and choose the voice to read it out. Speaking English, Polish and Romanian, currently four voices are available (one male and three female). Via email or saving it as an MP3 file, you can send the voice message you have generated to your friends. You can also publish it on the Web (e.g. on a blog) or play it on an iPod or any other portable MP3 player.

President of IVO Software, Lukasz Osowski, suggests: "IVONA's virtual voices may be used by creative filmmakers. Each day a number of videos with IVONA-generated voice overs are placed on the YouTube".

Developed by IVO Software, the speech generation technology, is regarded as one of the best in the world. This is confirmed by the numerous honors and awards it has won. IVONA's voice quality was also recognized at the prestigious international Blizzard Challenge. In 2006 and 2007, for two times in a row, it was considered one of the closest to a natural voice. IVO Software was established in 2001 and since then it has been involved only in creation and development of speech synthesis products.
