If you are looking to setup Text to Speech or TTS in Home Assistant this is the video to start with. In this video, we compare the big 4 TTS integrations: Google Translate, Alexa Meda Player, Nabu Casa, and Amazon Polly. We walk through an example of using them in a script and do an audible taste test if you will so you will be able to hear the difference without having to set each one up. All of this leading up to a future video where I show how I am using TTS in my smart home. So, if you are looking to add Text to Speech to your Home Assistant instance, stick around because we are about to automate some boring stuff.
