We’re excited to announce two major enhancements to our Text-to-Speech (TTS) services: __Neural voices__ powered by AWS Polly and a new __integration with ElevenLabs__. These updates provide Telnyx users with high-quality audio and greater flexibility in managing TTS services.

### 1. Neural Voices from AWS Polly

Telnyx now supports AWS Polly’s Neural Text-to-Speech (NTTS) engine, which provides an advanced, natural-sounding audio experience. Unlike standard concatenative synthesis, NTTS leverages neural networks to produce speech with improved intonation and fluidity, ideal for applications where high-quality voice interactions are critical.

  - __Benefits to Users:__ Enhanced realism in voice quality, with smoother, more lifelike speech. Perfect for customer-facing and interactive applications that require high-fidelity audio.
  - __Pricing:__ Please take a look at our [price list](https://telnyx.com/pricing/call-control)
  - __Getting Started:__ Setup instructions are available in our [TTS Guide](https://developers.telnyx.com/docs/voice/programmable-voice/tts).

### 2. ElevenLabs Integration

Additionally, Telnyx now offers integration with [ElevenLabs](https://elevenlabs.io/), enabling users to connect their own ElevenLabs accounts to Telnyx’s TTS services. This integration gives users access to a broader range of voice options, empowering them to customize voice interactions without additional Telnyx fees.

  - __Benefits to Users:__ Flexibility to use tailored voice profiles by directly connecting existing ElevenLabs accounts.
  - __Account Flexibility:__ All related costs are managed directly through users’ ElevenLabs accounts, with no additional Telnyx fees.
  - __Getting Started:__ Link your ElevenLabs account by following the steps in our [TTS Guide](https://developers.telnyx.com/docs/voice/programmable-voice/tts).

Both updates are now available, ready to enhance your Text-to-Speech experience on the [Telnyx portal](https://portal.telnyx.com/#/login/sign-in).

We’re excited to announce the launch of regional public IP packet gateways for Telnyx SIMs, bringing significant improvements in performance and flexibility for your IoT applications.

## What’s new?

With the addition of new Telnyx points-of-presence across the globe, you can now select a region-specific public IP when assigning it to your SIMs. Previously, the traffic was routed to a single destination, regardless of the SIM’s geographical location causing increased latency, especially for globally distributed applications. Now, Telnyx customers can choose a region (Washington DC, USA, or Frankfurt, Germany) closer to where their SIM is operating, significantly reducing latency and improving performance.

## Benefits:

* **Reduced latency**: By selecting a gateway closest to your device location, your IoT devices can experience faster data speeds and more responsive connections. No more long network journeys—your data stays local, boosting application performance.
* **Improved global performance:** Whether you're deploying devices in North America, Europe, or elsewhere, regional gateways ensure your IoT deployments operate smoothly, with data routed through the most efficient paths.

This update is a significant upgrade for businesses operating globally, providing optimized connectivity for applications such as remote monitoring, smart cities, and real-time data analytics.

Note that migrating an existing IP address to another region is not supported. If your Public IP address needs to be in a different region, you should delete the existing Public IP address and purchase a new one in the desired region.

## How to get started:

To get started, simply log into the [Mission Control Portal](https://telnyx.com/mission-control) and choose the region from the dropdown menu when adding Public IP to your SIM cards. 

As always, our team is here to support you 24/7 with any questions you might have.

__Updated IMSI account selection:__ v4 SIM cards benefit from an updated multi-IMSI solution that continues to expand our coverage and increase our multi-carrier redundancy. 

__IMSI fallback capability:__ The v4 cards are optimized to leverage our multi-IMSI technology by automatically switching to another IMSI if connectivity via the active IMSI is lost, giving an extra layer of redundancy and reliability. This functionality will be disabled by default and can be enabled via OTA. Note: Some devices may lose the existing APN settings when the IMSI used for connectivity services is changed. 

__Environmentally friendly design:__ In line with our ongoing commitment to improved sustainability, the new SIM cards are a triple-half design, using less plastic to reduce environmental impact.

IoT devices equipped with new Telnyx SIM v4 cards will automatically enjoy enhanced performance, more reliable connectivity, and seamless integration with the latest device operating systems. 

Plus, with our focus on environmental sustainability, you can feel good about choosing Telnyx.

Stay tuned for more information on how to access these new SIM cards and take full advantage of the improved features and connectivity.
