import os
1. Check which TTS API is available

def get_tts_provider():
    if os.environ.get("ELEVENLABS_API_KEY"):
        return "elevenlabs"
    elif os.environ.get("OPENAI_API_KEY"):
        return "openai"
    else:
        return "gtts"  # Free, no API key needed
provider = get_tts_provider()
print(f"Using TTS provider: {provider}")

πŸ“‹ Tips & Best Practices

"Content appears to be a summary"

  • Use curl directly instead of web fetch tools
  • Verify the URL is correct and accessible
  • Check if the site requires JavaScript rendering

    • "API key not found"

  • Check environment variables: echo $OPENAI_API_KEY
  • Ensure keys are exported in the shell
  • Fall back to gTTS if no paid API keys available

    • "Audio chunks don't sound continuous"

  • Ensure chunking happens at sentence boundaries
  • Consider adding small pauses between sections
  • Use consistent voice settings across all chunks
