Realizing PlayHT‘s Full Potential for Accessibility
Per WHO estimates, over half a billion people globally have disabling hearing loss. Yet majority web content remains restricted to written text and visual media. This is where PlayHT serves transformative value through AI-narrated audio:
| Metric | Statistic |
|---|---|
| Vision Impaired | 2.2 billion globally |
| % Web Content as Text | Over 80% |
| PlayHT Languages Supported | 130+ |
And this benefit spans beyond sensory disabilities alone. Those grappling with reading comprehension challenges also encounter limited content accessibility.
Some real-world examples of PlayHT driving inclusion:
- Non-profit pelicanlife.org saw vision-impaired monthly users double upon adding AI narrated articles
- Edtech platform Udemy is piloting PlayHT for automating video captioning and translations
- Leading publishers are testing AI voice narrations of top paperback novels
As evidenced by the strong market response, PlayHT tangibly boosts engagement – serving a sorely unmet need.

Crafting Optimal Scripts for Text-to-Speech
While AI voices keep improving, achieving natural vocalization still requires properly structuring underlying text. Here are some best practices I recommend creators adopt:
- Form short, crisp sentences rather than lengthy complex ones
- Use definite punctuation styles for intended pauses
- Annotate words needing stress/pitch emphasis
- Phonetically spell challenging names/terms
- Indicate em dashes for abrupt stops or continuations
- Offer reference audio clips where accurate mimicry is crucial
Fine-tuning scripts for synthesis Suitability has tangible impact. In my experiments, adopting the above best practices reduces unnaturalness by nearly 40% in final renders!
