# Introduction

Qolaba's Speech Generation tool converts written text into high-quality, natural-sounding audio using Gemini-powered text-to-speech models. Whether you need a single narrator for a voiceover or a two-speaker dialogue for a podcast, Speech Generation gives you full control over voice, accent, language, tone, and delivery style — all from a single interface.

#### Interface Overview

The Speech Generation workspace is organized into two areas:

1. **Audio History Panel** A persistent panel displaying all previously generated audio files. Each entry includes playback controls and a three-dot menu for download, share, and delete actions. All generated audio is saved here automatically.
2. **Configuration & Generation Area** The primary workspace where you configure and generate audio. This is where you select your mode, choose voices, set accent and style, write your script, select a model, and generate output.

#### Available Models

Speech Generation is powered by Gemini and offers two models:

| Model         | Speed           | Quality                              | Credit Cost | Best For                                    |
| ------------- | --------------- | ------------------------------------ | ----------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Flash TTS** | Faster          | Good                                 | Lower       | Script drafting, quick iterations, testing  |
| **Pro TTS**   | Slightly slower | Higher — more expressive and natural | Higher      | Final production output, client-ready audio |

Test your script with Flash TTS first to validate voice, accent, and style choices. Switch to Pro TTS for the final generation. This approach saves credits while ensuring production-quality output.
