I’m a firefighter who’s also a software engineer and am working on a training app. In it, I have it generating text dispatches of various scenes for us to discuss on rainy slow training days. Such as “Respond to 123 Main st, for a report of a smell of smoke” etc.

I already use google maps to generate a random address and show the map / street view. With the maps api I can domain lock the key…

But with their Text to Speech api I cannot. Seems silly. But I get it.

Are there any alternatives? I would be ok spinning up a middle server to also rework the audio to generate radio static, etc, but first pass I am looking for non-robotic (ie not browser based) TTS.

Thoughts?
