What audio formats can AI text to speech export?

In short
Naadly exports MP3 for video and the web, WAV for further editing, FLAC for archiving, OGG for the web and 8 kHz u-law for telephony, plus an SRT subtitle file timed from the render. MP3 for delivery, WAV or FLAC if anything downstream will process the audio again.
Which format for which job
| Format | Use it for |
|---|---|
| MP3 | Video edits, podcasts, the web - final delivery |
| WAV | Anything that will be edited, mixed or mastered again |
| FLAC | Archiving a master without paying in size |
| OGG | Web and game audio where licensing matters |
| u-law 8 kHz | Phone systems and IVR, which will not accept anything else |
| SRT | Subtitles timed from the render itself |
Encode once, at the end. Rendering to MP3, editing, and exporting to MP3 again is two lossy passes for no reason - work in WAV and compress on the way out.
