Speech Synthesis Markup Language is a W3C Recommendation

The World Wide Web Consortium has released the Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) Version 1.0 as a W3C Recommendation. With the XML-based SSML language, content authors can generate synthetic speech on the Web, controlling pronunciation, volume, pitch and rate. SSML builds on the work of the pioneers in speech synthesis to provide application developers with a powerful and flexible means to deliver a high quality mix of synthetic and pre-recorded speech as part of interactive voice response services. For more information visit www.w3c.org.

Speech Synthesis can provide additional accessibility for visitors to your site who may have difficulty reading, dyslexia, poor vision or even blindness. It also provides the facility for visitors to download your content in MP3 format to listen at their convenience. If you believe Speech Synthesis might prove beneficial to your visitors or would like more information please contact us.
