For a commercial option try Lumenvox, had very good results.  For "free" you can try google tts but you never know when google will decide to pull the plug on something.

I had been using google tts, but it started requiring a captcha for my browser, and via linux I can't access http://translate.google.com/translate_tts?q=test (redirects to captcha)


as so, its not reliable

I'm confused. Your subject says 'speech to text' but the URL you reference
does 'text to speech.'

'speech to text' is where your caller speaks and Asterisk gets the text.

'text to speech' is where Asterisk (your dialplan) has a string of text
and your caller hears the spoken words.

What are you trying to do?

Hello,

what follows is a mostly incomplete list of Text To Speech (TTS) and Speech To Text (STT)
solutions available for asterisk.

-Regarding the TTS free and open source available options:

Asterisk comes with festival (http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/) support
(app_festival) already build in. Decent quality, supports mainly English.

There is support for flite (http://www.festvox.org/flite/) available as a 3rd party
plugin : http://zaf.github.io/Asterisk-Flite/ Quality at par with festival, much easier
to setup and use, supports only English.

Also support for espeak (http://espeak.sourceforge.net/):
http://zaf.github.io/Asterisk-eSpeak/ Average quality, supports a wide range of languages.


-Free plugins/scripts that provide TTS from a remote not-so-free service:

GoogleTTS : http://zaf.github.io/asterisk-googletts/ Great quality, lots of languages,
free of charge but NOT suitable for any serious/commercial use. It is not a service
Google officially provides but just a hack that gets synthesized speech data from their
translate page. It's more suitable for testing/developing and home use.

MsTTS: http://zaf.github.io/asterisk-mstts/ using Microsoft's Translator voice
synthesis engine.

iSpeech: http://zaf.github.io/asterisk-ispeech/ using iSpeech API (http://www.ispeech.org)


-Other non free solutions:

Cepstral: http://www.cepstral.com/en/telephony/asterisk

Speech Technology Group: http://www.asteriskexchange.com/listings/1001


-Regarding the STT options:

Google Speech: http://zaf.github.io/asterisk-speech-recog/ the API is limited at the
moment in something like 50 requests/day and considered a technology preview.

iSpeech: http://zaf.github.io/asterisk-ispeech/

Lumevox: http://www.lumenvox.com/partners/digium/asterisk.aspx

Sphinx: http://cmusphinx.sourceforge.net/wiki/asteriskdetails

Vestec: http://www.asteriskexchange.com/listings/113

Lefteris Zafiris
