Voice Tuning Guide
Customise how InstAssistant sounds and behaves in conversation.
Voice Tuning
The Voice Tuning panel (accessible from the sidebar in your portal) lets you control how your assistant sounds and responds.
Speaking pace
Adjust the words-per-minute rate of responses. Lower values feel more deliberate; higher values speed up interactions once you are comfortable.
Pitch
Shift the voice pitch up or down to find a tone that suits your preference for extended listening.
Response style
Choose between concise (short, direct answers) and conversational (richer, more detailed responses). You can switch at any time.
Topic focus
Provide a short list of subjects your assistant should prioritise when offering context and commentary — for example: technology, finance, cycling.
Applying changes
All voice tuning settings are saved automatically and take effect the next time you launch a session. In-progress sessions are not affected.
