In order to use AI text to speech you will need a KickBot account. If you don't already have a KickBot account you can sign up on kickbot.app. For guidance on how to get set up, follow this guide.
By default, every KickBot user has access to 4 free TTS voices (male, female, TikTok, and Brian). Premium users unlock 1,500+ ultra-realistic voices, including celebrities, characters, and even other streamers, plus 10 custom voice clone slots to replicate any voice.
To start, navigate to the "AI TTS" page under "Chat Bot" in the left-hand navigation.
In this module there are settings which globally apply to TTS.
These settings are:
TTS Enabled: Toggles TTS playback on or off, by default this is set to on.
Automatic TTS: Reads every message in chat with TTS. This is not affected by cooldowns.
Read sender name: Reads the message senders name as well as their message.
Delay: Adds a delay between TTS messages.
User Cooldown: The minimum amount of time each viewer must wait until they can send a TTS message.
Global Cooldown: The minimum amount of time between any TTS message (this applies to viewers, streamers and mods).
Max Characters: The maximum length of a TTS message.
TTS Volume: The volume of TTS messages.
In addition to the above, there are "chat commands" which can adjust TTS settings while streaming, these commands are:
!ttsoff Disables TTS. Any remaining messages in the queue will still be played.
!ttson Enables TTS.
!ttsclear Clears the queue. This does not stop any active TTS playback.
!ttsskip Stops active TTS playback.
!ttsvol 0-100 Adjusts the TTS volume. Requires a volume parameter between 0-100.
!ttsdelay 0-30 Adjust the TTS delay. Requires seconds parameter between 0-30.
This queue gives the streamer (or their mods) the ability to preview and skip KickBot TTS messages as needed. The entire queue can be cleared if required, by clicking on the 'Clear Queue' button (which is only present when there are messages in the queue).
Here you will see a range of TTS voices depending on your KickBot account access, male and female for regular accounts and 1,500+ for premium accounts. You're able to preview the voice by clicking on 'Listen' and if you like what you hear, simply click 'Add' to enable that TTS voice.
The search function allows you to filter the TTS voices, to help find what you are looking for. In addition to search there is the option to further filter the type of voice through "Categories" (which are all selected by default) and toggle whether you see community made voices or not.
Added TTS voices will be displayed here, where you have the same options & controls as with the "Explore" tab of searching, filtering, toggling community made voices and - additionally - enabling or disabling all.
There are TTS voice specific settings which can be applied, these are:
Enabled: Turns the TTS voice on or off.
Command: A customizable command that triggers this TTS voice, the text following the command will be read.
Permissions: Define who has access to this TTS voice.
Create your very own custom TTS voice by uploading a 5 - 10 minute audio sample.
You can have up to 5 custom TTS voices, which have the following requirements:
Voice name: This will be displayed in the TTS voice selection menu.
Default command: The command defined to trigger the TTS voice.
Tags: Categories that represent the TTS voice.
Sample audio: Audio the AI TTS is trained from, all audio types are supported, 10mb limit.
Voice icon: The icon that will be displayed in the TTS voice selection menu.
In order to enable TTS in your streaming, you need to add a custom URL to as a browser source in your streaming software.
Copy the widget URL .
Add a browser source to your OBS scene.
Paste the widget URL into the box labeled "URL".
Enable "Control audio via OBS".
Click "OK".
Based on your OBS setup, enabling audio monitoring for the TTS browser source may be necessary. Achieve this through the following steps:
Access the TTS advanced audio properties in the audio mixer (click the 3 dots next to the TTS volume slider).
Set audio monitoring to "Monitor and Output".
(Optional) Go to your OBS settings, go to "Audio", and in the advanced section ensure the monitoring device is set to a device you can hear. The default option is recommended for most users.
Open your Kick chat and type the command prefix, followed by the text you want to be read aloud. Shortly after, you should hear the message read through OBS.
