Follow these guidelines to create agents that understand and respond accurately. ### Core Prompting Principles **Be Clear and Specific** * Define exactly what your agent should accomplish * Use simple, direct language in your instructions * Avoid ambiguous terms or vague objectives * Start with a concise prompt and add details iteratively **Set Conversation Boundaries** * Specify the agent's role clearly (e.g., "You are a customer support representative") * Define what topics the agent should and shouldn't discuss * Set expectations for conversation length and depth * Example: "Keep responses under 2 sentences unless asked for more detail" **Provide Context** * Include relevant background about your business * Explain industry-specific terminology * Define your brand voice and tone * Share common customer scenarios ### Prompt Structure Template ``` Role: You are a [specific role] for [company name] Objective: Your goal is to [clear objective] Constraints: - Keep responses concise and under [X] sentences - Always [required behavior] - Never [prohibited behavior] Key Information: [Relevant business details, policies, or data] Conversation Flow: 1. [Opening approach] 2. [Main interaction guidelines] 3. [Closing procedure] ``` *** ## Critical Voice-Specific Considerations ### Numbers and Formatting **Always Write Numbers as Words** * Wrong: "Your order number is 12345" * Correct: "Your order number is one two three four five" * Wrong: "The total is \$91.50" * Correct: "The total is ninety-one dollars and fifty cents" **Why this matters**: Text-to-speech engines pronounce written numbers more naturally when spelled out, preventing confusion like "ninety-one" being heard as "nine one" or vice versa. **Special Number Cases**: * Phone numbers: "nine one four, two three five, six seven eight nine" * Prices: "twenty-nine dollars and ninety-nine cents" * Dates: "March fifteenth, twenty twenty-five" * Times: "three thirty PM" or "fifteen hundred hours" * Percentages: "fifteen percent" not "15%" ### Multi-Language and Script Considerations **For Hinglish (Hindi-English Mix)** * Write Hindi words in Devanagari script: "आपका नाम क्या है?" * Don't use romanized Hindi in prompts: Avoid "aapka naam kya hai" * Mix naturally: "Hello, आपकी मदद के लिए मैं यहाँ हूं" * Ensure your TTS voice supports Devanagari rendering **For Other Mixed Languages** * Arabic: Use Arabic script (العربية) not transliteration * Chinese: Use appropriate characters (中文) not pinyin * Korean: Use Hangul (한국어) not romanization * Japanese: Use proper mix of Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji **Script Consistency Rules**: * Keep each language in its native script throughout * Don't switch scripts mid-sentence for the same language * Test pronunciation with your chosen TTS voice * Provide pronunciation guides for brand names or unique terms ### Pronunciation and Clarity **Spell Out Acronyms Intentionally** * If you want it pronounced as letters: "F A Q" or "U S A" * If it's a word: "FAQ" (pronounced "fak") or "NASA" * For clarity, add pronunciation hints: "FAQ (F-A-Q)" in your knowledge base **Technical Terms and Brand Names** * Add phonetic spellings for difficult words * Example: "Tabbly (TAB-lee)" in your training data * Create a pronunciation dictionary for industry jargon * Test how TTS handles technical vocabulary **Punctuation Affects Speech** * Commas create brief pauses * Periods create longer pauses * Question marks raise intonation at the end * Exclamation marks add emphasis (use sparingly) * Use ellipses (...) for thoughtful pauses *** ## Conversation Design Best Practices ### Keep It Natural **Avoid Robotic Patterns** * "Let me connect you with our billing team" **Use Conversational Fillers Sparingly** * Occasional: "Hmm, let me check that for you" * Don't overuse: "Um," "uh," "like" in every response **Handle Interruptions Gracefully** * Program responses for when users cut in * Example: "Oh, sorry—go ahead" or "Yes, I'm listening" ### Context and Memory **Reference Previous Statements** * "As you mentioned earlier about..." * "Based on what you told me..." * This shows the agent is truly listening **Maintain Conversation State** * Track what information has been collected * Don't ask for the same details twice * Build on previous answers logically ### Error Handling and Fallbacks **When the Agent Doesn't Understand** * ✅ "I didn't quite catch that. Could you rephrase?" * ✅ "Just to clarify, are you asking about \[interpretation]?" **Escalation Pathways** * Define clear triggers for human handoff * Example: "If user says 'speak to a person' more than once, transfer immediately" * Set frustration detection: "I can tell this is urgent. Let me connect you with someone who can help right away" ## Prompt Testing and Refinement ### Iterative Improvement Process **1. Start Simple** * Begin with a basic prompt covering core functionality * Test thoroughly in the playground * Identify gaps and confusion points **2. Add Complexity Gradually** * Layer in additional instructions one at a time * Test after each addition * Remove anything that doesn't improve performance **3. Test Edge Cases** * Unusual requests * Ambiguous phrasing * Multiple questions at once * Background noise scenarios * Various accents and speaking speeds **4. Monitor Real Conversations** * Review call transcripts regularly * Identify common misunderstandings * Update prompts based on actual user behavior * Track improvement metrics over time ### Common Pitfall Avoidance **Don't Overload the Prompt** * Too many instructions confuse the agent * Prioritize the most important behaviors * Use knowledge base for detailed information **Avoid Contradictory Instructions** * "Be brief but comprehensive" creates confusion * Choose one priority: brevity OR detail * Make trade-offs explicit **Don't Assume Knowledge** * Explain context the agent can't infer * Provide definitions for industry terms * Include relevant background information *** ## Language-Specific Prompting Tips ### English Variants **US English** * Use American spelling and terminology * "elevator" not "lift," "apartment" not "flat" * Date format: "March 15th, 2025" **UK English** * British spelling and phrasing * "lift" not "elevator," "mobile" not "cell phone" * Date format: "15th March 2025" **Indian English** * May include local terms: "lakh" (hundred thousand), "crore" (ten million) * Write these clearly: "two lakh" or "two hundred thousand" ### Non-English Languages **Formality Levels** * Spanish: Choose between "tú" (informal) and "usted" (formal) * Japanese: Define keigo (politeness) level * German: Specify "du" vs "Sie" * Korean: Set appropriate honorific level **Regional Variations** * Spanish: Spain vs Latin America differences * Portuguese: Brazil vs Portugal variants * Arabic: MSA (Modern Standard) vs dialect * Chinese: Simplified vs Traditional characters ## # Agent Configuration Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/core-features/agent-configuration Learn how to configure and customize your Tabbly voice agents ## Overview Agent configuration is the foundation of creating effective voice AI agents.

Best Practices Plan your data structure before deploying agents. It's easier to design upfront than to restructure later. Validate data as it's collected during calls. Catch errors early rather than during export. Regularly audit your data for quality, completeness, and compliance. Clean up issues proactively. Document your data structure, validation rules, and retention policies. This helps with compliance and maintenance. Regularly test your export processes to ensure data integrity and formatting are correct. ## Next Steps * Learn about analytics: [Analytics & Reporting](/analytics/call-analytics) * Configure integrations: [CRM Integrations](/integrations/crm-integrations) # Variables & Personalization Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/core-features/variables Add dynamic variables to personalize conversations and use customer data ## Overview Variables allow you to personalize conversations by dynamically inserting customer data, context, and real-time information into your agent's responses. ## Add Variables to Conversations ### What are Variables? Variables are placeholders that get replaced with actual values during conversations. They enable personalization and dynamic content insertion. ### Variable Syntax Variables use double curly braces: `{{variable_name}}` **Example:** ``` Hello {{customer_name}}, thank you for calling {{company_name}}! ``` ### Types of Variables **Customer Data Variables** * `{{customer_name}}` - Customer's name * `{{customer_email}}` - Email address * `{{customer_phone}}` - Phone number * `{{customer_company}}` - Company name **Context Variables** * `{{current_time}}` - Current time * `{{current_date}}` - Current date * `{{day_of_week}}` - Day of the week * `{{timezone}}` - Time zone **Call Variables** * `{{call_duration}}` - Length of current call * `{{call_id}}` - Unique call identifier * `{{agent_name}}` - Name of the agent **Custom Variables** * Define your own variables * Pull from CRM or database * Use in any conversation flow ## Dynamic Variable Insertion ### Where to Use Variables **Greetings** ``` Good {{time_of_day}}, {{customer_name}}! How can I help you today? ``` **Questions** ``` Hi {{customer_name}}, I see you're calling about {{product_name}}. Is that correct? ``` **Responses** ``` Great! I've scheduled your appointment for {{appointment_date}} at {{appointment_time}}. ``` **Confirmations** ``` Perfect, {{customer_name}}. I've sent a confirmation email to {{customer_email}}. ``` ### Variable Processing **Real-Time Resolution** * Variables are resolved in real-time during the call * Values are pulled from connected data sources * Fallback values used if data unavailable **Data Sources** * CRM integrations (Salesforce, HubSpot, etc.) * Customer database * Call context and history * External APIs ## Using Customer Data in Conversations ### CRM Integration **Automatic Data Pull** * Customer data automatically pulled from CRM * Available immediately when call starts * Updates in real-time during conversation **Example Flow:** 1. Caller's phone number identified 2. System looks up customer in CRM 3. Customer data loaded into variables 4. Agent uses data in conversation ### Data Mapping **Field Mapping** * Map CRM fields to Tabbly variables * Custom field names supported * Transform data format if needed **Example Mapping:** ``` CRM Field: "First Name" → Tabbly Variable: {{customer_name}} CRM Field: "Email Address" → Tabbly Variable: {{customer_email}} CRM Field: "Last Order Date" → Tabbly Variable: {{last_order_date}} ``` ### Dynamic Personalization **Personalized Greetings** ``` Hello {{customer_name}}, I see you're a {{customer_tier}} member. How can I help you today? ``` **Context-Aware Responses** ``` Based on your last purchase of {{last_product}}, I think you might be interested in {{recommended_product}}. ``` **Historical Context** ``` I see you called us {{days_since_last_call}} days ago about {{previous_issue}}. Has that been resolved? ``` ## Advanced Variable Usage ### Conditional Variables **If-Then Logic** ``` {{#if customer_tier == "Premium"}} Thank you for being a Premium member! {{else}} Would you like to learn about our Premium membership? {{/if}} ``` ### Calculated Variables **Date Calculations** ``` Your next appointment is in {{days_until_appointment}} days. ``` **Mathematical Operations** ``` Your order total is ${{order_subtotal + tax - discount}}. ``` ### Nested Variables **Complex Structures** ``` {{customer.address.street}}, {{customer.address.city}}, {{customer.address.state}} ``` ## Variable Best Practices Provide fallback values for variables that might be missing. Example: `{{customer_name|"there"}}` Test all variables with sample data to ensure they work correctly. Verify formatting and accuracy. Use variables naturally in conversation. Don't over-personalize or make it feel forced. Be mindful of privacy. Only use customer data that's appropriate and consented to. Ensure variable resolution is fast. Slow data lookups can cause delays in conversation. ## Common Variable Examples ### Appointment Scheduling ``` I've scheduled your appointment for {{appointment_date}} at {{appointment_time}} with {{provider_name}} at {{location_address}}. ``` ### Order Status ``` Hi {{customer_name}}, your order #{{order_number}} for {{product_name}} is currently {{order_status}} and will be delivered by {{delivery_date}}. ``` ### Support Tickets ``` I see you have an open ticket #{{ticket_number}} about {{ticket_subject}}. Our team is working on it and will update you by {{estimated_resolution_date}}. ``` ### Billing ``` Your account balance is ${{account_balance}}. Your next payment of ${{next_payment_amount}} is due on {{payment_due_date}}. ``` ## Troubleshooting **Variables Not Resolving** * Check variable name spelling * Verify data source connection * Test with sample data * Review error logs **Missing Data** * Ensure CRM integration is active * Check data mapping configuration * Verify customer record exists * Set up fallback values **Formatting Issues** * Check date/time format settings * Verify number formatting * Test with different data types * Review variable syntax ## Next Steps * Learn about data management: [Data Management](/core-features/data-management) * Configure agent settings: [Agent Configuration](/core-features/agent-configuration) # Voice Settings Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/core-features/voice-settings Configure voice settings including voice selection, cloning, and multi-language support ## Overview Voice settings are crucial for creating natural, engaging conversations.

Age, gender, and accent preferences matter. Use consistent voices across related agents to maintain brand consistency. Prioritize clarity over style. A clear, understandable voice is more important than a unique one. ## Troubleshooting **Voice Quality Issues** * Check audio quality of source material * Ensure sufficient training data * Review voice settings and parameters **Language Detection Problems** * Verify language settings * Check audio quality * Review detection sensitivity settings **Performance Issues** * Test with different voices * Compare performance metrics * Gather caller feedback ## Next Steps * Configure agent settings: [Agent Configuration](/core-features/agent-configuration) * Learn about personalization: [Variables & Personalization](/core-features/variables) # Customer Support Agent Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/customersupportagent The Customer Support Agent is your 24/7 customer service solution that handles inquiries, resolves issues, and delivers exceptional support experiences at scale.

Follow these steps to install and run Mintlify on your operating system: **Step 1**: Install Mintlify: ```bash npm theme={null} npm i -g mintlify ``` ```bash yarn theme={null} yarn global add mintlify ``` **Step 2**: Navigate to the docs directory (where the `mint.json` file is located) and execute the following command: ```bash theme={null} mintlify dev ``` A local preview of your documentation will be available at `http://localhost:3000`. ### Custom Ports By default, Mintlify uses port 3000. You can customize the port Mintlify runs on by using the `--port` flag. To run Mintlify on port 3333, for instance, use this command: ```bash theme={null} mintlify dev --port 3333 ``` If you attempt to run Mintlify on a port that's already in use, it will use the next available port: ```md theme={null} Port 3000 is already in use. Trying 3001 instead. ``` ## Mintlify Versions Please note that each CLI release is associated with a specific version of Mintlify. If your local website doesn't align with the production version, please update the CLI: ```bash npm theme={null} npm i -g mintlify@latest ``` ```bash yarn theme={null} yarn global upgrade mintlify ``` ## Validating Links The CLI can assist with validating reference links made in your documentation. To identify any broken links, use the following command: ```bash theme={null} mintlify broken-links ``` ## Deployment Unlimited editors available under the [Pro Plan](https://mintlify.com/pricing) and above. If the deployment is successful, you should see the following: ## Code Formatting We suggest using extensions on your IDE to recognize and format MDX. If you're a VSCode user, consider the [MDX VSCode extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=unifiedjs.vscode-mdx) for syntax highlighting, and [Prettier](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=esbenp.prettier-vscode) for code formatting. ## Troubleshooting This may be due to an outdated version of node. Try the following: 1. Remove the currently-installed version of mintlify: `npm remove -g mintlify` 2. Upgrade to Node v19 or higher. 3. Reinstall mintlify: `npm install -g mintlify` Solution: Go to the root of your device and delete the \~/.mintlify folder. Afterwards, run `mintlify dev` again. Curious about what changed in the CLI version? [Check out the CLI changelog.](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mintlify?activeTab=versions) # Code Blocks Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/essentials/code Display inline code and code blocks ## Basic ### Inline Code To denote a `word` or `phrase` as code, enclose it in backticks (\`). ``` To denote a `word` or `phrase` as code, enclose it in backticks (`). ``` ### Code Block Use [fenced code blocks](https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/#fenced-code-blocks) by enclosing code in three backticks and follow the leading ticks with the programming language of your snippet to get syntax highlighting. Optionally, you can also write the name of your code after the programming language. ```java HelloWorld.java theme={null} class HelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, World!"); } } ``` ````md theme={null} ```java HelloWorld.java class HelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, World!"); } } ``` ```` # Images and Embeds Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/essentials/images Add image, video, and other HTML elements ## Image ### Using Markdown The [markdown syntax](https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#images) lets you add images using the following code ```md theme={null} ![title](/path/image.jpg) ``` Note that the image file size must be less than 5MB. Otherwise, we recommend hosting on a service like [Cloudinary](https://cloudinary.com/) or [S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/). You can then use that URL and embed. ### Using Embeds To get more customizability with images, you can also use [embeds](/writing-content/embed) to add images ```html theme={null} ``` ## Embeds and HTML elements ``` # Markdown Syntax Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/essentials/markdown Text, title, and styling in standard markdown ## Titles Best used for section headers. ```md theme={null} ## Titles ``` ### Subtitles Best use to subsection headers. ```md theme={null} ### Subtitles ``` Each **title** and **subtitle** creates an anchor and also shows up on the table of contents on the right. ## Text Formatting We support most markdown formatting. Simply add `**`, `_`, or `~` around text to format it. | Style | How to write it | Result | | ------------- | ----------------- | ----------------- | | Bold | `**bold**` | **bold** | | Italic | `_italic_` | *italic* | | Strikethrough | `~strikethrough~` | ~~strikethrough~~ | You can combine these. For example, write `**_bold and italic_**` to get ***bold and italic*** text. You need to use HTML to write superscript and subscript text. That is, add `` or `` around your text. | Text Size | How to write it | Result | | ----------- | ------------------------ | ---------------------- | | Superscript | `superscript` | superscript | | Subscript | `subscript` | subscript | ## Linking to Pages You can add a link by wrapping text in `[]()`. You would write `[link to google](https://google.com)` to [link to google](https://google.com). Links to pages in your docs need to be root-relative. Basically, you should include the entire folder path. For example, `[link to text](/writing-content/text)` links to the page "Text" in our components section. Relative links like `[link to text](../text)` will open slower because we cannot optimize them as easily. ## Blockquotes ### Singleline To create a blockquote, add a `>` in front of a paragraph. > Dorothy followed her through many of the beautiful rooms in her castle. ```md theme={null} > Dorothy followed her through many of the beautiful rooms in her castle. ``` ### Multiline > Dorothy followed her through many of the beautiful rooms in her castle. > > The Witch bade her clean the pots and kettles and sweep the floor and keep the fire fed with wood. ```md theme={null} > Dorothy followed her through many of the beautiful rooms in her castle. > > The Witch bade her clean the pots and kettles and sweep the floor and keep the fire fed with wood. ``` ### LaTeX Mintlify supports [LaTeX](https://www.latex-project.org) through the Latex component. 8 x (vk x H1 - H2) = (0,1) ```md theme={null} 8 x (vk x H1 - H2) = (0,1) ``` # Navigation Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/essentials/navigation The navigation field in mint.json defines the pages that go in the navigation menu The navigation menu is the list of links on every website. You will likely update `mint.json` every time you add a new page. Pages do not show up automatically. ## Navigation syntax Our navigation syntax is recursive which means you can make nested navigation groups. You don't need to include `.mdx` in page names. ```json Regular Navigation theme={null} "navigation": [ { "group": "Getting Started", "pages": ["quickstart"] } ] ``` ```json Nested Navigation theme={null} "navigation": [ { "group": "Getting Started", "pages": [ "quickstart", { "group": "Nested Reference Pages", "pages": ["nested-reference-page"] } ] } ] ``` ## Folders Simply put your MDX files in folders and update the paths in `mint.json`. For example, to have a page at `https://yoursite.com/your-folder/your-page` you would make a folder called `your-folder` containing an MDX file called `your-page.mdx`. You cannot use `api` for the name of a folder unless you nest it inside another folder. Mintlify uses Next.js which reserves the top-level `api` folder for internal server calls. A folder name such as `api-reference` would be accepted. ```json Navigation With Folder theme={null} "navigation": [ { "group": "Group Name", "pages": ["your-folder/your-page"] } ] ``` ## Hidden Pages MDX files not included in `mint.json` will not show up in the sidebar but are accessible through the search bar and by linking directly to them. # Reusable Snippets Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/essentials/reusable-snippets Reusable, custom snippets to keep content in sync One of the core principles of software development is DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself). This is a principle that apply to documentation as well. If you find yourself repeating the same content in multiple places, you should consider creating a custom snippet to keep your content in sync. ## Creating a custom snippet **Pre-condition**: You must create your snippet file in the `snippets` directory. Any page in the `snippets` directory will be treated as a snippet and will not be rendered into a standalone page. If you want to create a standalone page from the snippet, import the snippet into another file and call it as a component. ### Default export 1. Add content to your snippet file that you want to re-use across multiple locations. Optionally, you can add variables that can be filled in via props when you import the snippet. ```mdx snippets/my-snippet.mdx theme={null} Hello world! This is my content I want to reuse across pages. My keyword of the day is {word}. ``` The content that you want to reuse must be inside the `snippets` directory in order for the import to work. 2. Import the snippet into your destination file. ```mdx destination-file.mdx theme={null} --- title: My title description: My Description --- import MySnippet from '/snippets/path/to/my-snippet.mdx'; ## Header Lorem impsum dolor sit amet. ``` ### Reusable variables 1. Export a variable from your snippet file: ```mdx snippets/path/to/custom-variables.mdx theme={null} export const myName = 'my name'; export const myObject = { fruit: 'strawberries' }; ``` 2. Import the snippet from your destination file and use the variable: ```mdx destination-file.mdx theme={null} --- title: My title description: My Description --- import { myName, myObject } from '/snippets/path/to/custom-variables.mdx'; Hello, my name is {myName} and I like {myObject.fruit}. ``` ### Reusable components 1. Inside your snippet file, create a component that takes in props by exporting your component in the form of an arrow function. ```mdx snippets/custom-component.mdx theme={null} export const MyComponent = ({ title }) => (

{title}

... snippet content ...

); ``` MDX does not compile inside the body of an arrow function. Stick to HTML syntax when you can or use a default export if you need to use MDX. 2. Import the snippet into your destination file and pass in the props ```mdx destination-file.mdx theme={null} --- title: My title description: My Description --- import { MyComponent } from '/snippets/custom-component.mdx'; Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. ``` # Global Settings Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/essentials/settings Mintlify gives you complete control over the look and feel of your documentation using the mint.json file Every Mintlify site needs a `mint.json` file with the core configuration settings. Learn more about the [properties](#properties) below. ## Properties Name of your project. Used for the global title. Example: `mintlify` An array of groups with all the pages within that group The name of the group. Example: `Settings` The relative paths to the markdown files that will serve as pages.

Example: `comments` The name of the anchor label. Example: `Community` The start of the URL that marks what pages go in the anchor. Generally, this is the name of the folder you put your pages in. The hex color of the anchor icon background. Can also be a gradient if you pass an object with the properties `from` and `to` that are each a hex color. Used if you want to hide an anchor until the correct docs version is selected. Pass `true` if you want to hide the anchor until you directly link someone to docs inside it. One of: "brands", "duotone", "light", "sharp-solid", "solid", or "thin" Override the default configurations for the top-most anchor. The name of the top-most anchor Font Awesome icon. One of: "brands", "duotone", "light", "sharp-solid", "solid", or "thin" An array of navigational tabs. The name of the tab label. The start of the URL that marks what pages go in the tab.

The base url for all API endpoints. If `baseUrl` is an array, it will enable for multiple base url options that the user can toggle. The authentication strategy used for all API endpoints. The name of the authentication parameter used in the API playground. If method is `basic`, the format should be `[usernameName]:[passwordName]` The default value that's designed to be a prefix for the authentication input field. E.g. If an `inputPrefix` of `AuthKey` would inherit the default input result of the authentication field as `AuthKey`. Configurations for the API playground Whether the playground is showing, hidden, or only displaying the endpoint with no added user interactivity `simple` Learn more at the [playground guides](/api-playground/demo) Enabling this flag ensures that key ordering in OpenAPI pages matches the key ordering defined in the OpenAPI file. This behavior will soon be enabled by default, at which point this field will be deprecated. A string or an array of strings of URL(s) or relative path(s) pointing to your OpenAPI file. Examples: ```json Absolute theme={null} "openapi": "https://example.com/openapi.json" ``` ```json Relative theme={null} "openapi": "/openapi.json" ``` ```json Multiple theme={null} "openapi": ["https://example.com/openapi1.json", "/openapi2.json", "/openapi3.json"] ``` An object of social media accounts where the key:property pair represents the social media platform and the account url.

Set if you always want to show light or dark mode for new users. When not set, we default to the same mode as the user's operating system. Set to true to hide the dark/light mode toggle. You can combine `isHidden` with `default` to force your docs to only use light or dark mode. For example: ```json Only Dark Mode theme={null} "modeToggle": { "default": "dark", "isHidden": true } ``` ```json Only Light Mode theme={null} "modeToggle": { "default": "light", "isHidden": true } ``` A background image to be displayed behind every page.

Do you have about three to five minutes? I'd love to learn more about what you're looking for and see if I can point you in the right direction." Conversation Flow: 1.

Ask: "In terms of timeline, are you looking to implement something right away, or are you more in the research phase?" 6.

This is Sarah from TechSolutions. I saw you downloaded our CRM guide from our website yesterday. Thanks so much for your interest! Is this Michael Chen?" Prospect: "Yes, this is Michael." Agent: "Excellent! Do you have about three to five minutes? I'd love to learn more about what you're looking for and see if I can point you in the right direction." Prospect: "Sure, I can talk for a few minutes." === DISCOVERY - NEED === Agent: "Perfect! So Michael, what prompted you to look into CRM solutions right now?" Prospect: "Well, we're a growing marketing agency and our current spreadsheet system is becoming a mess. We're losing track of client follow-ups." Agent: "I totally understand - that's actually one of the most common challenges we hear from agencies. How large is your team currently?" Prospect: "We have about fifteen people total, with seven in sales and client management." === DISCOVERY - QUALIFICATION === Agent: "Got it, seven people who would be using the CRM primarily. In terms of timeline, are you looking to implement something right away, or are you more in the research phase?"

And have you set aside a budget for this, or are you still exploring what the investment might look like?" Prospect: "We're thinking somewhere between eight thousand and fifteen thousand dollars for the first year." Agent: "That's helpful to know. Are you the main decision maker on this, Michael, or will others be involved in the final decision?" Prospect: "I'm the VP of Operations, so I'll be making the recommendation, but our CEO will need to approve anything over ten thousand." Agent: "Makes total sense. Is your CEO supportive of getting a CRM in place?" Prospect: "Yes, she's actually pushing for it because we almost lost a client due to a missed follow-up last month." === ANSWER QUESTIONS === Agent: "I can definitely see why this is a priority. What questions do you have for me about our platform?" Prospect: "Does it integrate with Gmail and Google Calendar?" Agent: "Absolutely - we have seamless integration with the entire Google Workspace, plus Outlook and Microsoft. Your emails and meetings sync automatically."

I'd love to set up a personalized demo where we can show you exactly how it would work for your team. Do you have your calendar handy?" Prospect: "Yes, let me check. What days work for you?"

I'm booking you for Friday, March twenty-fourth at two PM. You'll meet with David, one of our product specialists who has extensive experience with marketing agencies." === CONFIRMATION === Agent: "You'll receive a calendar invite and confirmation email within five minutes to michael dot chen at marketpro dot com.

Pick a Suitable Voice Different voices will be better suited for different applications. Choose a voice that matches the emotional range and expression you're looking for. For example: * **Meditation app**: Select a steady and calm voice * **Fitness coach**: Select an expressive and energetic voice * **Customer support**: Select a professional and friendly voice * **Educational content**: Select a clear and articulate voice ### 2. Pay Attention to Punctuation Punctuation matters! Use it effectively to control speech delivery: * **Exclamation points (!)**: Make the voice more emphatic and excited * **Ellipsis (...)**: Insert natural pauses * **Dashes (—)**: Create pauses or breaks in thought * **Periods (.)**: Natural sentence endings * **Commas (,)**: Brief pauses between phrases Always include punctuation at the end of sentences for natural speech flow. ### 3. Use Asterisks for Emphasis You can emphasize specific words by surrounding them with asterisks. This helps clarify tone or intent in nuanced dialogue. **Examples:** * `We *need* a beach vacation` - Emphasizes "need" * `We need a *beach* vacation` - Emphasizes "beach" * `*This* is the most important point` - Emphasizes "This" ### 4. Match the Voice to the Text Language Voices perform optimally when synthesizing text in the same language as the original voice. While cross-language synthesis is possible, you'll achieve the best quality, pronunciation, and naturalness by matching the voice's native language to your text content. ### 5. Normalize Complex Text If you find that the model is mispronouncing certain complex phrases like phone numbers or dollar amounts, normalize the text. This is particularly helpful for non-English languages. **Normalization Examples:** **Phone Numbers:** * `(123)456-7891` → `one two three, four five six, seven eight nine one` * `+1-555-123-4567` → `plus one, five five five, one two three, four five six seven` **Dates:** * `5/6/2025` → `may sixth twenty twenty five` * `12/25/2024` → `december twenty fifth twenty twenty four` **Times:** * `12:55 PM` → `twelve fifty-five PM` * `9:30 AM` → `nine thirty AM` **Emails:** * `test@example.com` → `test at example dot com` * `support@tabbly.io` → `support at tabbly dot io` **Monetary Values:** * `$5,342.29` → `five thousand three hundred and forty two dollars and twenty nine cents` * `€1,000` → `one thousand euros` **Symbols and Equations:** * `2+2=4` → `two plus two equals four` * `100%` → `one hundred percent` * `#1` → `number one` ### 6. Tune the Temperature The temperature controls how random the audio output is: * **Higher values**: More random outputs, more expressive results * Best for: Barks, demo clips, non-real-time use cases * Range: 1.0 - 1.5 * **Lower values**: More deterministic output * Best for: Real-time use cases, consistent delivery * Range: 0.6 - 1.0 (recommended for real-time) * Default: 1.1 Temperatures that are too low will often produce poor results. For real-time use cases, we recommend keeping the temperature between 0.6 and 1.0. ## Voice Tags Voice tags provide descriptive metadata about each voice, helping you categorize and filter voices based on their characteristics. Tags describe properties like gender, age group, tone, and style, making it easier to find the right voice for your use case. ### Understanding Voice Tags Each voice includes a tags array with descriptive labels such as: **Gender:** * `male` * `female` * `non-binary` **Age Group:** * `young_adult` * `adult` * `middle-aged` * `elderly` **Vocal Style:** * `energetic` * `calm` * `professional` * `friendly` * `warm` **Voice Quality:** * `smooth` * `clear` * `expressive` * `conversational` ### Using Voice Tags When selecting a voice for your application, use tags to find voices that match your requirements: ```python theme={null} # Example: Find a professional, female voice voices = get_voices(tags=["female", "professional", "adult"]) ``` ## Audio Markups Audio markups are currently experimental and only support English. They are not recommended for real-time, production use cases. Audio markups give you control over how the model speaks, not just what it says. These markups can be used to control emotional expression, delivery style, and non-verbal vocalizations. ### Emotion and Delivery Style Emotion and delivery style markups control the way a given text is spoken. These work best when used at the beginning of a text and apply to the text that follows. **Emotions:** * `[happy]` - Happy, cheerful tone * `[sad]` - Sad, melancholic tone * `[angry]` - Angry, frustrated tone * `[surprised]` - Surprised, shocked tone * `[fearful]` - Fearful, anxious tone * `[disgusted]` - Disgusted, repulsed tone **Delivery Styles:** * `[laughing]` - Laughing while speaking * `[whispering]` - Whispered delivery **Example:** ``` [happy] I can't believe this is happening! ``` For best results, use only one emotion or delivery style markup at the beginning of your text. Using multiple emotion and delivery style markups or placing them mid-text may produce mixed results. ### Non-verbal Vocalization Non-verbal vocalization markups add non-verbal sounds based on where they are placed in the text. **Available Markups:** * `[breathe]` - Breathing sound * `[clear_throat]` - Throat clearing * `[cough]` - Coughing * `[laugh]` - Laughing * `[sigh]` - Sighing * `[yawn]` - Yawning **Example:** ``` [clear_throat] Did you hear what I said? [sigh] You never listen to me! ``` Multiple non-verbal vocalizations can be used within a single piece of text to add appropriate vocal effects throughout the speech. ### Best Practices for Audio Markups 1. **Choose Contextually Appropriate Markups** * Markups work best when they make sense with the text content * Avoid contradictions between markup and text **Bad Example:** ``` [angry] I appreciate your help and I'm really grateful for your kindness. ``` The text is grateful, which contradicts the angry markup. 2. **Avoid Conflicting Markups** * Ensure multiple markups don't conflict with each other **Bad Example:** ``` [angry] I can't believe you did that. [yawn] You never listen. ``` Yawning indicates boredom, which rarely occurs alongside anger. 3. **Break Up the Text** * Emotion and delivery style markups work best at the beginning with a single markup per request * Break complex text into separate requests **Instead of:** ``` [angry] I can't believe you didn't save the last bite of cake for me. [laughing] Got you! I was just kidding. ``` **Do this:** ``` [angry] I can't believe you didn't save the last bite of cake for me. ``` ``` [laughing] Got you! I was just kidding. ``` 4. **Repeat Non-verbal Vocalizations if Necessary** * If a non-verbal vocalization is consistently being omitted, repeat the markup * Works best for vocalizations where repetition sounds natural **Examples:** ``` [laugh] [laugh] That's hilarious! [cough] [cough] Excuse me, let me continue. ``` ## Custom Pronunciation Sometimes you may need to ensure that a word is spoken with a specific pronunciation, especially for uncommon words such as company names, brand names, nicknames, geographic locations, medical terms, or legal terms that may not appear in the model's training data. ### How to Use Tabbly TTS supports inline IPA phoneme notation for custom pronunciation. Use the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) format, wrapped in slashes (`/ /`). **Example:** Suppose you are building an AI travel agent, and it is recommending the destination Crete, which is pronounced `/kriːt/` ("kreet") in English. You can ensure the correct pronunciation by passing it inline: ``` Your interests are a perfect match for a honeymoon in /kriːt/. ``` The model will substitute the IPA pronunciation wherever it appears inline in your text. If the text is generated by an LLM, you can simply replace the original spelling with the IPA transcription before passing it to the TTS model. ### Finding the Right IPA Phonemes If you are unsure of the correct phonemes, there are several ways to find them: 1. **Ask an LLM**: Use ChatGPT or similar services: ``` "What are the IPA phonemes for the word Crete, pronounced like 'kreet'?" ``` 2. **Use Reference Websites**: Resources such as Vocabulary.com's IPA Pronunciation Guide provide tables of symbols with example words. 3. **Online IPA Converters**: Various online tools can help convert words to IPA notation. Once you have the correct phonemes, you can embed them directly into your TTS request: ``` Your adventure in /kriːt/ begins today. ``` ## Natural, Conversational Speech Natural human conversation is not perfect. It's full of filler words, pauses, and other natural speech patterns that make it sound more human. Tabbly TTS models are trained to generate the requested text as is, in order to produce the most accurate and consistent output that can be used for a wide range of applications. To generate natural, conversational speech, you can use the following techniques: ### 1. Insert Filler Words Add filler words like `uh`, `um`, `well`, `like`, and `you know` in the text. **Instead of:** ``` I'm not too sure about that. ``` **Use:** ``` Uh, I'm not uh too sure about that. ``` If the text is already being generated using an LLM, you can add instructions in the prompt to insert filler words in the response. Alternatively, you can use a small LLM to insert filler words given a piece of text. ### 2. Use Audio Markups Use [audio markups](#audio-markups) to add non-verbal vocalizations like `[sigh]`, `[breathe]`, `[clear_throat]`. These natural speech patterns can make the speech sound more natural. **Example:** ``` Well, [sigh] I guess we could try that approach. [breathe] Let me think about it. ``` ## Advanced Tips ### Text Chunking For very long texts, consider splitting into smaller chunks for better streaming performance and more natural delivery: * **Optimal chunk size**: 50-200 words * **Natural break points**: Sentence endings, paragraph breaks * **Benefits**: Faster streaming, better quality, more natural pauses ### Error Handling Always implement proper error handling for TTS requests: ```python theme={null} try: audio_stream = tabbly_tts.synthesize(text="Hello world") async for chunk in audio_stream: # Process audio chunk pass except httpx.HTTPError as e: logger.error(f"HTTP error: {e}") # Implement retry logic except Exception as e: logger.error(f"TTS error: {e}") # Fallback to default voice or text ``` ### Caching Consider caching frequently used phrases or responses: * **Cache key**: Text content + voice\_id + model\_id * **Cache duration**: Based on your use case * **Benefits**: Reduced API calls, faster response times, cost savings ### Performance Optimization 1. **Reuse HTTP Clients**: Don't create new clients for each request 2. **Connection Pooling**: Use connection pooling for better performance 3. **Async Processing**: Use async/await for non-blocking operations 4. **Batch Requests**: When possible, batch multiple TTS requests ## Common Use Cases ### Customer Support * **Voice**: Professional, friendly, calm * **Style**: Clear and articulate * **Punctuation**: Use commas for natural pauses * **Example**: `Hello, thank you for calling. How can I help you today?` ### E-learning * **Voice**: Clear, articulate, patient * **Style**: Educational and engaging * **Pace**: Slightly slower for comprehension * **Example**: `Today, we're going to learn about...` ### Entertainment * **Voice**: Expressive, energetic * **Style**: Dynamic and engaging * **Markups**: Use emotion markups for variety * **Example**: `[excited] Welcome to the show!` ### Accessibility * **Voice**: Clear, consistent * **Style**: Predictable and easy to understand * **Normalization**: Always normalize numbers and symbols * **Example**: `The time is twelve thirty PM.` ## Troubleshooting ### Mispronunciations * **Normalize text**: Convert numbers, dates, symbols to words * **Use custom pronunciation**: For brand names and technical terms * **Check language match**: Ensure voice language matches text language ### Unnatural Speech * **Add punctuation**: Use commas, periods, ellipses * **Insert filler words**: Add natural speech patterns * **Use audio markups**: Add non-verbal vocalizations * **Adjust temperature**: Try different temperature values ### Performance Issues * **Chunk long texts**: Split into smaller pieces * **Cache responses**: Store frequently used phrases * **Reuse connections**: Don't create new HTTP clients * **Monitor API usage**: Track response times and errors ## Summary Following these best practices will help you generate high-quality, natural-sounding speech with Tabbly TTS: 1. ✅ Choose appropriate voices for your use case 2. ✅ Use punctuation effectively 3. ✅ Normalize complex text (numbers, dates, symbols) 4. ✅ Match voice language to text language 5. ✅ Tune temperature for your use case 6. ✅ Use audio markups for natural speech (experimental) 7. ✅ Implement custom pronunciation for special terms 8. ✅ Add filler words for conversational speech 9. ✅ Handle errors gracefully 10. ✅ Optimize for performance For more information, see: * [TTS Streaming API](/tts-api/tts-streaming) * [TTS LiveKit Integration](/tts-api/tts-livekit-integration) # TTS LiveKit Integration Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/tts-api/tts-livekit-integration Integrate Tabbly TTS with LiveKit Agents for voice AI applications ## Overview Tabbly TTS provides a streaming Text-to-Speech API that allows you to use Tabbly TTS as a TTS provider in your LiveKit voice agents with optimized audio delivery that eliminates clicks, pops, and choppy sounds. ## Prerequisites * LiveKit Agents Python SDK installed * Tabbly TTS API key * Python 3.11+ * `httpx` library (for HTTP streaming) ## API Details **Base URL:** `https://api.tabbly.io` **Streaming Endpoint:** `POST /tts/stream` **Authentication:** API key via `X-API-Key` header **Response Format:** HTTP streaming response with WAV-encoded audio chunks (LINEAR16, 48kHz, mono) **Protocol:** HTTP streaming with WAV files embedded in the stream ## Integration Steps ### 1.

Use in Your Agent In your LiveKit agent entrypoint: ```python theme={null} from livekit import agents from livekit.agents import AgentSession async def entrypoint(ctx: agents.JobContext): # Create Tabbly TTS instance tabbly_tts = TabblyTTS( api_key="your-api-key-here", voice_id="Ashley", # Optional, defaults to "Ashley" model_id="tabbly-tts", # Optional, defaults to "tabbly-tts" base_url="https://api.tabbly.io", # Optional, uses default if not provided ) # Create agent session with Tabbly TTS session = AgentSession( tts=tabbly_tts, stt=your_stt_provider, llm=your_llm_provider, ) await ctx.connect() await session.start(room=ctx.room, agent=your_agent) ``` ## Configuration Options ### TabblyTTS Parameters Your Tabbly TTS API key Voice ID to use (default: "Ashley") Model ID to use (default: "tabbly-tts") Base URL for the API ### Audio Configuration 48000 Hz (fixed) 1 (mono) LINEAR16 PCM (16-bit) audio/pcm ### Buffering Strategy The implementation uses an optimized buffering strategy to eliminate audio artifacts: * **Chunk Size**: 960 bytes (10ms at 48kHz) - reduces overhead and prevents clicks * **Pre-buffer Size**: 1920 bytes (20ms) - smooths out network jitter * **Frame Alignment**: All chunks are aligned to 16-bit sample boundaries (even number of bytes) ## Key Features ### 1. WAV File Extraction The API may send WAV files embedded in the stream. The implementation automatically: * Detects WAV headers (`RIFF` and `WAVE` markers) * Extracts raw PCM data from WAV chunks * Handles multiple WAV files in a single stream * Falls back to raw PCM if no WAV headers are detected ### 2. Optimized Audio Delivery The implementation eliminates audio clicks, pops, and choppy sounds by: * Using consistent 10ms chunk sizes for steady delivery * Pre-buffering 20ms to smooth network jitter * Ensuring perfect frame alignment (16-bit sample boundaries) * Processing data continuously without gaps ### 3. Error Handling The implementation handles: * HTTP errors from the API * WAV header parsing errors * Network timeouts (60 seconds) * AudioEmitter initialization errors * Incomplete WAV files in the stream ## Best Practices Uses HTTP streaming for better reliability than WebSocket Always wrap TTS calls in try-except blocks to handle network and API errors gracefully Track your API usage through Tabbly's dashboard to manage costs and quotas Choose appropriate voice\_id based on your use case. Different voices may have different characteristics and languages Use the appropriate model\_id (default: "tabbly-tts") The implementation automatically handles WAV files - no manual processing needed The pre-buffer helps smooth out network delays - don't disable it Always ensure sample-aligned chunks to prevent audio artifacts ## Example: Using with Metadata You can configure Tabbly TTS via LiveKit job metadata: ```python theme={null} # In your job creation metadata = { "tts_library": "tabbly", "use_tts_voice": "Ashley", "tts_api_key": "your-api-key" } # In your entrypoint async def entrypoint(ctx: agents.JobContext): metadata = ctx.job.metadata if metadata.get("tts_library", "").lower() == "tabbly": tts_config = TabblyTTS( api_key=metadata.get("tts_api_key", "default-key"), voice_id=metadata.get("use_tts_voice", "Ashley"), model_id="tabbly-tts", ) session = AgentSession( tts=tts_config, stt=your_stt_provider, llm=your_llm_provider, ) await ctx.connect() await session.start(room=ctx.room, agent=your_agent) ``` ## Troubleshooting ### No Audio Output * Check API key is valid and has wallet balance > 0 * Verify network connectivity to API endpoint (`https://api.tabbly.io`) * Check logs for HTTP connection errors * Verify the response status code is 200 * Check if WAV headers are being detected correctly ### Audio Quality Issues (Clicks, Pops, Choppy Sound) **This is the main issue this implementation solves!** * Ensure the pre-buffer is working (check logs for buffer sizes) * Verify chunk size is 960 bytes (10ms) * Check that frame alignment is correct (even number of bytes) * Monitor network latency - high latency may require larger pre-buffer * Ensure WAV extraction is working (check debug logs) ### HTTP Connection Issues * Check firewall/proxy settings for HTTPS connections * Verify API URL is correct (`https://api.tabbly.io/tts/stream`) * Check for HTTP timeout errors (default 60 seconds) * Ensure API key is properly included in `X-API-Key` header * Verify request format matches API requirements ### Performance Issues * Monitor HTTP connection establishment time * Check for network latency to API endpoint * Monitor audio chunk arrival rate * Check if pre-buffer is filling up (may indicate slow network) * Consider adjusting CHUNK\_SIZE or PRE\_BUFFER\_SIZE for your network conditions ### WAV Processing Issues * Check logs for "Extracted PCM from WAV" messages * Verify WAV headers are being detected (`RIFF` and `WAVE` markers) * Check if multiple WAV files are being processed correctly * Ensure incomplete WAV files are being handled (kept in buffer) ## Audio Artifact Prevention This implementation specifically addresses audio artifacts (clicks, pops, choppy sounds) through: 1. **Consistent Chunk Sizes**: 10ms chunks provide steady delivery rate 2. **Pre-buffering**: 20ms buffer smooths out network jitter 3. **Frame Alignment**: All chunks aligned to 16-bit sample boundaries 4. **Continuous Processing**: No gaps between chunks 5. **WAV Extraction**: Properly extracts PCM from embedded WAV files If you still experience audio artifacts: * Increase PRE\_BUFFER\_SIZE (try 2880 bytes = 30ms) * Check network latency and stability * Verify the API is sending consistent data * Check for any errors in the logs ## Support For issues or questions: * Check [TTS Streaming API documentation](/tts-api/tts-streaming) * Review [LiveKit Agents documentation](https://docs.livekit.io/agents) * Check application logs for detailed error messages * Verify your implementation matches the code provided above ## License This integration follows the same license as your LiveKit Agents project. # TTS Streaming API Source: https://docs.tabbly.io/tts-api/tts-streaming Streaming Text-to-Speech API for real-time voice synthesis ## Overview Tabbly TTS provides a streaming Text-to-Speech API that allows you to generate high-quality voice audio in real-time for your voice AI applications. The API streams audio as it's generated, providing low-latency responses for real-time use cases. ## Base URL ``` https://api.tabbly.io ``` ## Endpoint Streaming Text-to-Speech endpoint that returns audio in real-time as WAV format. The API streams audio chunks as they're generated, allowing for low-latency playback. ## Authentication All requests require an API key passed via the `X-API-Key` header. Your Tabbly TTS API key ## Request The text to convert to speech Voice ID to use for synthesis. Default: "Ashley" Model ID to use. Default: "tabbly-tts" ## Response **Content-Type:** `audio/wav` or `application/octet-stream` **Format:** LINEAR16 PCM, 48kHz, mono **Streaming:** Yes - audio is streamed as it's generated **Protocol:** HTTP streaming with WAV-encoded audio chunks embedded in the stream ## Example Request ```bash cURL theme={null} curl -X POST 'https://api.tabbly.io/tts/stream' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -H 'X-API-Key: your-api-key-here' \ -d '{ "text": "Hello, this is a test of the Tabbly TTS streaming API", "voice_id": "Ashley", "model_id": "tabbly-tts" }' ``` ```python Python theme={null} import httpx async def stream_tts(text: str, api_key: str): url = "https://api.tabbly.io/tts/stream" headers = { "Content-Type": "application/json", "X-API-Key": api_key, } data = { "text": text, "voice_id": "Ashley", "model_id": "tabbly-tts", } async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client: async with client.stream("POST", url, json=data, headers=headers) as response: response.raise_for_status() async for chunk in response.aiter_bytes(): # Process audio chunk yield chunk ``` ```javascript Node.js theme={null} const axios = require('axios'); async function streamTTS(text, apiKey) { const response = await axios.post( 'https://api.tabbly.io/tts/stream', { text: text, voice_id: 'Ashley', model_id: 'tabbly-tts' }, { headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'X-API-Key': apiKey }, responseType: 'stream' } ); return response.data; } ``` ```python Python - Complete Example with WAV Processing theme={null} import httpx import logging logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) async def stream_tts_with_wav_processing(text: str, api_key: str): """Stream TTS and extract PCM data from WAV chunks.""" url = "https://api.tabbly.io/tts/stream" headers = { "Content-Type": "application/json", "X-API-Key": api_key, } data = { "text": text, "voice_id": "Ashley", "model_id": "tabbly-tts", } async with httpx.AsyncClient(timeout=60.0) as client: async with client.stream("POST", url, json=data, headers=headers) as response: response.raise_for_status() buffer = bytearray() header_skipped = False async for chunk in response.aiter_bytes(): if chunk: buffer.extend(chunk) # Skip WAV header on first chunk if not header_skipped and len(buffer) >= 44: if buffer[:4] == b'RIFF' and buffer[8:12] == b'WAVE': # Find "data" chunk and skip header for i in range(12, min(len(buffer), 200)): if buffer[i:i+4] == b'data': buffer = buffer[i+8:] # Skip "data" + size break else: buffer = buffer[44:] # Fallback header_skipped = True # Process audio data after header if header_skipped and len(buffer) > 0: # Check for additional WAV files in stream processed = bytearray() temp = buffer while len(temp) > 0: if len(temp) >= 12 and temp[:4] == b'RIFF' and temp[8:12] == b'WAVE': # Extract PCM from WAV data_start = None for i in range(12, len(temp)): if i + 4 <= len(temp) and temp[i:i+4] == b'data': data_start = i + 8 break if data_start: # Find end of WAV (next RIFF or end) wav_end = len(temp) for i in range(data_start, len(temp) - 4): if temp[i:i+4] == b'RIFF': wav_end = i break processed.extend(temp[data_start:wav_end]) temp = temp[wav_end:] else: break else: processed.extend(temp) temp = bytearray() buffer = temp if len(processed) > 0: yield bytes(processed) ``` ## Audio Format 48000 Hz (fixed) 1 (mono) 16-bit LINEAR16 PCM audio/wav (stream may contain embedded WAV files) ## WAV Header Processing The response may include WAV files embedded in the stream. When processing the stream: 1. **Detect WAV Headers**: Look for `RIFF` and `WAVE` markers 2. **Extract PCM Data**: Find the `data` chunk and extract raw PCM audio 3. **Handle Multiple WAV Files**: The stream may contain multiple WAV files 4. **Process Audio Chunks**: Handle audio data as it arrives for real-time playback ### WAV File Structure ``` RIFF (4 bytes) - "RIFF" File Size (4 bytes) WAVE (4 bytes) - "WAVE" ... (format chunk, etc.) data (4 bytes) - "data" Data Size (4 bytes) [PCM Audio Data] ``` ### Processing Tips * **Skip Headers**: First 44 bytes typically contain WAV header * **Extract Data Chunk**: Look for `data` marker to find audio start * **Handle Multiple Files**: Stream may contain multiple WAV files sequentially * **Frame Alignment**: Ensure chunks are aligned to 16-bit sample boundaries (even bytes) ## Error Responses Bad Request - Invalid parameters or missing required fields Unauthorized - Invalid or missing API key Payment Required - Insufficient wallet balance Server error ## Rate Limits API rate limits apply to prevent abuse. Contact support if you need higher limits. ## Best Practices Process audio chunks as they arrive rather than waiting for the complete response. This reduces latency and enables real-time playback. The API may send WAV files embedded in the stream. Always extract PCM data from WAV chunks for proper playback. See code examples above. Always handle HTTP errors and network timeouts gracefully. Implement retry logic for transient failures. Choose appropriate voice\_id based on your use case. Different voices may have different characteristics and languages. For very long texts, consider splitting into smaller chunks for better streaming performance and lower latency. Reuse HTTP client connections when making multiple requests to improve performance and reduce connection overhead. For real-time playback, implement buffering (10-20ms) to smooth out network jitter and prevent audio artifacts. Ensure audio chunks are aligned to 16-bit sample boundaries (even number of bytes) to prevent audio clicks or pops. ## Troubleshooting ### No Audio Output * Verify API key is correct and has sufficient wallet balance * Check network connectivity to `https://api.tabbly.io` * Review response status code (should be 200) * Verify WAV headers are being detected and processed correctly * Check logs for HTTP connection errors ### Audio Quality Issues * Ensure sample rate matches (48000 Hz) * Verify WAV header parsing is working correctly * Check audio data format (should be LINEAR16 PCM) * Ensure frame alignment (even number of bytes per chunk) * Check for proper PCM extraction from WAV files ### Performance Issues * Reuse HTTP client instances for better performance * Monitor API response times * Consider caching for repeated text * Implement proper buffering for real-time playback * Check network latency to API endpoint ### WAV Processing Issues * Verify WAV headers are being detected (`RIFF` and `WAVE` markers) * Check if `data` chunk is being found correctly * Ensure multiple WAV files in stream are handled properly * Verify PCM data extraction is working * Check for incomplete WAV files (keep in buffer until complete) ## Integration Examples ### Real-Time Playback For real-time playback, implement buffering to smooth out network jitter: ```python theme={null} import asyncio import httpx async def stream_with_buffering(text: str, api_key: str, output_queue): """Stream TTS with buffering for smooth playback.""" url = "https://api.tabbly.io/tts/stream" headers = {"Content-Type": "application/json", "X-API-Key": api_key} data = {"text": text, "voice_id": "Ashley", "model_id": "tabbly-tts"} buffer = bytearray() CHUNK_SIZE = 960 # 10ms at 48kHz async with httpx.AsyncClient() as client: async with client.stream("POST", url, json=data, headers=headers) as response: response.raise_for_status() async for chunk in response.aiter_bytes(): buffer.extend(chunk) # Process WAV headers and extract PCM... # When buffer >= CHUNK_SIZE, push to output_queue while len(buffer) >= CHUNK_SIZE: await output_queue.put(buffer[:CHUNK_SIZE]) buffer = buffer[CHUNK_SIZE:] ``` ## Next Steps * Learn how to integrate with LiveKit: [LiveKit Integration](/tts-api/tts-livekit-integration) * Review best practices: [Best Practices](/tts-api/best-practices) * Get your API key from the Tabbly dashboard * Review example implementations in the code samples above
