## Text-to-Speech The chat widget supports Text-to-Speech (TTS) feature that enables chatbots to convert text into audio. This helps to make the conversation between a user and the bot more interactive. TTS allows the chatbot to respond to users in a natural way, using a synthesized voice to provide a human-like conversation experience. The bot responds to the user's queries with a human voice and provides additional information and feedback. TTS is a paid feature. You need to upgrade to Enterprise subscription to access this feature. To enable TTS for your chatbots, contact [support](mailto:support@yellow.ai). :::note * TTS currently supports English, Hindi, Tamil, Arabic, Kannada, Gujarati, Marathi, Telugu, Malayalam, Bengali, Malay, Indonesian, and Vietnamese. ::: ## Enable TTS in your chatbot To enable TTS in your chatbot, follow these steps: 1.
