Text-To-Speech call allows converting of text message to voice call. This feature is particularly useful for businesses or organizations that must deliver important automated messages via voice. When a TTS call is made SMSEagle device will call a specified phone number or phonebook entry and text message will be read by a built-in voice synthesizer (currently the English language is supported by voice synthesis).
Wake-up Calls & Text-to-Speech Calls
SMSEagle’s Calls feature offers both Wake-Up Calls for urgent ring-only alerts and Text-To-Speech Automated Calls to convert text messages into voice calls, allowing you to reach designated numbers or phonebook entries effectively.
Feature Details
The Calls feature allows making wake-up calls (ring only) and text-to-speech calls to a single phone number or group of recipients. This feature is ideal for delivering urgent messages or announcements, such as alerts, emergency notifications, or other time-sensitive information. A call request can be created via SMSEagle web-GUI or API.
Wake Up Calls (Ring only)
Wake up call is a ring-only call that can be used to capture a recipient’s attention. This feature allows for example to wake up someone during the night to draw attention to SMS containing a critical alert. When a wake up call is made SMSEagle device will ring to a specified phone number or phonebook entry for a specified number of seconds.
