Groups without the auto-translation option can now use language selection for Speech Synthesis and the pronunciation dictionary
The Speech Synthesis feature on the slideshow screen is now more accessible to a wider range of groups. Here is a summary of the updates:
- Language selection for Speech Synthesis: The language selection field in the settings menu of the slideshow screen, which was previously only shown for groups with the auto-translation option, is now displayed regardless of your contract plan.
- Pronunciation dictionary: The "Speech Synthesis" menu in Group Settings is now available under any contract plan.
Use these features when you want the content read aloud in a language different from the original Manual text, or when you want to specify the pronunciation of internal terminology or proper nouns.

Studio has become even easier to use
The Studio feature has become even more convenient. Here is a summary of the updates:
- "Capture from the PC screen" has been added to the "Select file" option when using Add source, allowing you to record your screen on the spot and register it as a source. You no longer need to separately prepare a recorded file and then Upload it as before.
- Audio from videos registered as sources is now transcribed. This reduces mishearing of numbers and proper nouns, improving the accuracy of AI analysis.
