This is better for your FusionSuite blog because you generate the audio once. Every visitor then plays the already-generated audio instead of calling the TTS API every time.
The reading time can be calculated automatically from the blog’s word count, while the audio duration can be obtained from the generated audio.
Which TTS service?
For a production implementation, we can use a TTS API such as OpenAI, Google Cloud Text-to-Speech, Amazon Polly, or ElevenLabs.
Since you’re already working with a PHP WordPress custom theme, I can give you the complete implementation specifically for your setup:
WordPress PHP → TTS API → MP3 → WordPress Media/Uploads → Blog Details Player
including the WordPress hook that automatically generates the audio whenever a post is published/updated, and the frontend audio player.
