SMS2voice: free service in Sweden with www.gratissms.se

Free SMS to Voice now a reality on www.GratisSMS.se with technology from Roslab AB and voices from Acapela!

Members of GratisSMS.se, one of the leading free SMS service websites in Sweden, can now send talking messages to friends and family.
This is made possible by voices from the Acapela Group, and technology from Roslab AB, a leader within the field of automatic phone services.

On popular GratisSMS.se, each member is given two free SMS credits a day. (Additional credits can be gained through competitions, offers, recruitment of new members etc.).

To send a talking SMS the member simply clicks on the “Speech SMS” button then writes their message and the phone number of the recipient. The recipient is then called up and the message is read out loud by Acapela’s Elin voice.

“By adding Voice to our SMS service, we differentiate GratisSMS from the competition. Feedback from users on this appealing free service is very positive and helps keep our community growing with very active members”, says Dennis Gustafsson at GratisSMS.se.

The written messages are vocalised in real time, 24/7, using Acapela’s pleasant and highly intelligible voices. GratisSMS.se uses Roslab AB’s Automatic Messaging Service to convert text messages into spoken words. GratisSMS is one of the first deployments in Sweden of Roslab’s Voice-SMS service using Acapela voices.

“Acapela's natural and high quality Swedish voices translate written messages perfectly into natural speech”, says Henrik Roos, CEO of Roslab AB. “We are seeing great interest in this development, in Sweden and other countries.”
