FAQPage Schema
How do I generate podcast-style audio for boat inspections?

You can generate podcast-style audio for boat inspections by providing the captain's name, boat make, model, year, and episode focus. The system creates a tailored 150-200 word script and converts it to natural-sounding TTS audio.

How does text-to-speech script generation work for episodic boat scans?

Text-to-speech script generation for episodic boat scans produces captain-facing scripts tailored to specific inspection areas like exterior, engine, and aboard checks. An external TTS service then converts these scripts into linked audio assets.

Can I use this to manage a sequence of boat inspection episodes?

Yes, you can manage a sequence of boat inspection episodes. The system supports a four-episode progression with growing references across episodes, allowing you to build upon prior captures and maintain contextual continuity.

What do I need to submit structured content payloads for boat-scan episodes?

To submit structured content payloads for boat-scan episodes, you need the generated script, the uploaded TTS audio URL, audio duration, and capture data. The system prepares and posts these payloads to the provided endpoints.

What's the best way to automate captain-facing audio episode creation?

The best way to automate captain-facing audio episode creation is using frontmatter-driven configuration to define episode parameters. The system handles script generation, TTS conversion, upload URL handling, and structured submission automatically.

Are there limitations to the script length for boat-scan TTS conversion?

Yes, a limitation of the boat-scan TTS conversion is that script generation is constrained to 150-200 words per episode. This ensures concise, captain-facing audio tailored to specific boat inspection checkpoints.
