🎙️ Selecting Your Voice in Heron

How to choose the voice that answers your clinic’s phone calls

When Heron answers incoming calls on behalf of your clinic, it uses a synthetic voice to greet and guide patients. To help make the experience feel natural and aligned with your clinic’s style, Heron lets you select from a range of preloaded voices — and adjust how fast they speak.

🔊 Why Voice Matters

The voice patients hear sets the tone for their interaction with your clinic. Some clinics prefer a warm and friendly voice, while others may opt for a more neutral and professional tone. Heron gives you the flexibility to choose what fits best.

🧩 What You Can Customise

1. Voice Selection

Choose from a set of preloaded voice options, including:

  • Male and female voices

  • New Zealand, Australian, or international accents

  • Friendly, calm, or direct tones

We’ll provide samples so you can hear each voice in action before making your decision.

2. Speaking Speed

You can also adjust how quickly the voice speaks:

  • Slow

  • Normal

  • Fast
