Case Study: Sonos creates a custom French voice experience with ReadSpeaker VoiceLab

Sonos launches a custom French voice for 60+ countries with ReadSpeaker

Sonos, a global leader in sound experiences, needed to create a distinct, high-quality French voice for its Sonos Voice Control system. The challenge was to develop a branded voice capable of accurately handling complex, multilingual music content like artist and track names. To achieve this, Sonos partnered with ReadSpeaker, specifically leveraging their VoiceLab service.

ReadSpeaker's VoiceLab team used AI-driven deep neural network technology to develop the custom voice end-to-end. The solution involved recording sessions with a French voice talent and training models to ensure precise pronunciation. The result was a seamless and natural voice experience that strengthened Sonos's brand identity in the French-speaking market, enhancing user engagement for its hands-free interactions.
