|
|
Inworld is a streaming text-to-speech (TTS) provider. In OpenClaw it synthesizes outbound reply audio (MP3 by default, OGG_OPUS for voice notes) and raw PCM audio for telephony channels such as Voice Call.
|
|
|
|
OpenClaw posts to Inworld's streaming TTS endpoint, concatenates the returned base64 audio chunks into a single buffer, and hands the result to the standard reply-audio pipeline.

## Install plugin
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
openclaw plugins install @openclaw/inworld-speech
|
|
openclaw gateway restart
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
<Steps>
|
|
<Step title="Set your API key">
|
|
Copy the credential from your Inworld dashboard (Workspace > API Keys) and set it as an env var. The value is sent verbatim as the HTTP Basic credential, so do not Base64-encode it again or convert it to a bearer token.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
INWORLD_API_KEY=<base64-credential-from-dashboard>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</Step>
|
|
<Step title="Select Inworld in messages.tts">
|
|
```json5
|
|
{
|
|
messages: {
|
|
tts: {
|
|
auto: "always",
|
|
provider: "inworld",
|
|
providers: {
|
|
inworld: {
|
|
voiceId: "Sarah",
|
|
modelId: "inworld-tts-1.5-max",
|
|
},
|
|
},
|
|
},
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
</Step>
|
|
<Step title="Send a message">
|
|
Send a reply through any connected channel. OpenClaw synthesizes the audio with Inworld and delivers it as MP3 (or OGG_OPUS when the channel expects a voice note).
|
|
</Step>
|
|
</Steps>
|
|
|
|
## Configuration options
|
|
|
|
| Option | Path | Description |
|
|
| ------------- | -------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| `apiKey` | `messages.tts.providers.inworld.apiKey` | Base64 dashboard credential. Falls back to `INWORLD_API_KEY`. |
|
|
| `baseUrl` | `messages.tts.providers.inworld.baseUrl` | Override Inworld API base URL (default `https://api.inworld.ai`). |
|
|
| `voiceId` | `messages.tts.providers.inworld.voiceId` | Voice identifier (default `Sarah`). Legacy alias: `speakerVoiceId`. |
|
|
| `modelId` | `messages.tts.providers.inworld.modelId` | TTS model id (default `inworld-tts-1.5-max`). |
|
|
| `temperature` | `messages.tts.providers.inworld.temperature` | Sampling temperature, `0` (exclusive) to `2` (optional). |
|

## Notes
|
|
|
|
<AccordionGroup>
|
|
<Accordion title="Authentication">
|
|
Inworld uses HTTP Basic auth with a single Base64-encoded credential string. Copy it verbatim from the Inworld dashboard. The provider sends it as `Authorization: Basic <apiKey>` without any further encoding, so do not Base64-encode it yourself and do not pass a bearer-style token. See [TTS auth notes](/tools/tts#inworld-primary) for the same callout.
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
<Accordion title="Models">
|
|
Supported model ids: `inworld-tts-1.5-max` (default), `inworld-tts-1.5-mini`, `inworld-tts-1-max`, `inworld-tts-1`.
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
<Accordion title="Audio outputs">
|
|
Replies use MP3 by default. When the channel target is `voice-note`, OpenClaw asks Inworld for `OGG_OPUS` so the audio plays as a native voice bubble. Telephony synthesis uses raw `PCM` at 22050 Hz to feed the telephony bridge.
|
|
</Accordion>
|
|
<Accordion title="Custom endpoints">
|
|
Override the API host with `messages.tts.providers.inworld.baseUrl`. Trailing slashes are stripped before requests are sent.
