Case Study: Pillo Health achieves more natural, trustworthy voice interactions with Amazon Polly

Pillo Health makes Joanna the top pick with Amazon Polly's conversational voices

Pillo Health, a startup providing in-home devices for individuals managing chronic conditions, sought a text-to-speech solution that could provide a natural and trustworthy voice for their companion device. They needed a voice that was clear, expressive, and easy to understand to foster trust and better connect with their users during daily interactions. They turned to the vendor, Amazon Polly, to address this challenge.

Amazon Polly implemented its Neural Text-to-Speech technology, specifically the Conversational speaking style available for the Joanna voice. This solution uses a neural network to learn and reproduce the nuanced intonation patterns of natural, friendly conversation, including elements like emphasis and pausing. The result was a voice that brought Pillo's persona to life, which was the top pick amongst all of Pillo Health's voice testers and successfully inspired user trust.
