# Adding Custom Voice

## How to Add a New Voice

Follow these steps to expand your speech library with custom profiles.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Access Speech Profiles">
    Navigate to **Settings > Voice > Speech Profiles** and click the **+ Add your speech** button in the top right corner.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Define the Profile Identity">
    In the "Add new speech" modal, provide the foundational details for your agent:

    * **Speech name & Description:** Give your voice a recognizable name and a brief description of its intended use (e.g., "Customer Support - Arabic").
    * **Language & Accent:** Specify the primary language and regional accent to optimize the Voice Agent's performance for local callers.
    * **Gender & Tags:** Select the gender (Male or Female) and add searchable tags to help your team find the voice later.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure Provider Setup">
    Connect the profile to your preferred backend engine:

    * **Provider:** Select from our list of supported providers like Azure, ElevenLabs, or Google.
    * **Voice Name:** Enter the specific voice identifier provided by the TTS engine.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Preview and Save">
    Use the **Play sample** button to audition the voice directly within the dashboard. Once you are satisfied that the tone matches your brand—whether it's a friendly **Hinglish** persona or a formal **Arabic Accent AI Agent**—click **Add speech**.
  </Step>
</Steps>
