Polly is available as an API on its own, as well as a feature of the AWS Management Console and command line interface. These include British English, American English, Australian English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Danish and Russian. You can also store audio streams as MP3, Vorbis and PCM file formats, and there’s support for a range of international languages and dialects.
