Arabic text to speech

Arabic text to speech that speaks the right dialect

Turn Arabic text into streaming speech with voices from the Gulf, Egypt, the Levant, Iraq, Sudan, Yemen, the Maghreb, and Modern Standard Arabic.

Choose a regional voice

Browse voices by dialect, listen to samples, then try your own text with the voice you like.

Start playback while audio is generated

The speech endpoint streams raw PCM, so voice agents and interactive products can play the first audio before the complete response is ready.

Use the SDK you already know

Point an OpenAI-compatible client at the Sawtak Arabi base URL, pass a voice id, and keep the same speech request shape.

From Arabic text to production audio

Compare voices in the live demo, choose one that suits your script, then create your recording in the studio.

    Send Arabic text

    Call POST /v1/audio/speech with your text, voice id, and pcm response format.

  3. 03

    Stream and play

    Read the PCM response as it arrives and use the X-Sample-Rate header for correct playback.

Arabic text to speech API

Integrate our Arabic text to speech API directly into your backend. Because the REST API is OpenAI-compatible, you can start by swapping your base URL to api.sawtakarabi.ai/v1. It supports real-time streaming to return raw PCM or WAV chunks immediately, minimizing latency for agents.

curl --fail --show-error https://api.sawtakarabi.ai/v1/audio/speech \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SAWTAK_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "arabic-tts-1",
    "input": "مرحباً بك",
    "response_format": "wav"
  }' \
  --output speech.wav

One API, 90+ Arabic dialect varieties

Standard Arabic doesn't always fit local experiences. Our catalogue features 200+ public voices across 90+ Arabic dialects, enabling you to generate natural speech for specific regions. Choose the localized voice for your audience without struggling with unnatural intonations or regional errors.

Egyptian Arabic

Create conversational content with the most widely understood dialect in the Arab world. Perfect for media, entertainment, and casual conversational agents needing a familiar tone.

Saudi Arabic

Reach the largest market in the Gulf with authentic Saudi voices. Ideal for local customer support, e-commerce applications, and interactive government services requiring native pronunciation.

Emirati Arabic

Deliver authentic experiences for UAE-based users. Use the Emirati voice over for luxury brand marketing, local navigation apps, and regional virtual assistants to build trust.

Levantine Arabic

Connect with users in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Palestine. Levantine voices provide a warm, approachable sound suited for lifestyle apps, podcasts, and digital storytelling.

Maghrebi Arabic

Engage North African audiences across Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. Generate text to speech in Tunisian dialect or Moroccan Darija to resonate deeply with local communities.

What teams build with it

Developers and creators use our streaming API to add natural voice capabilities to their products. From automated telephony and voice agents to content creation, the API handles real-world scale to support your interactive applications and high-traffic deployments.

Audiobooks & Podcasts

Convert long-form written articles and books into high-quality streaming audio. Use multilingual text normalization to cleanly read passages mixed with English terms or complex numbers.

IVR & Voice Agents

Build responsive conversational interfaces. By streaming raw 16-bit PCM audio with chunked transfer encoding, your voice agent can start speaking while the response is still generating.

Social Media Video

Generate natural voiceovers for short-form content. Choose regional voices that match your target audience to make videos sound native rather than robotic or artificially translated.

E-Learning

Provide accessible learning materials by reading lessons aloud. Clear Modern Standard Arabic voices ensure educational content is pronounced correctly for students across the entire region.
