@pramodbiligiri, would you be willing to share a little bit more about how the thext-to-speech is utlized in your project?

What provider do you use, the costs related to it, is it a real-time text processing, or maybe you have a bulk processing routine, opinions on different TTS providers? You know, things like that for everyone who'd like to try TTS in their projects.

(We're talking about >3000 abstracts TTS-ed on the author's page, and that's not a trivial amount if one is for instance using external providers for the job).

Sure, it's not exactly rocket science. I'm using Google Cloud's Text-To-Speech - https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech. You should be able to find the pricing details there. I'm guessing other cloud providers' TTS would be comparable as well? I haven't checked.
