We have no recommendations on contracts and it's up to the customer and the voice talent to negotiate the terms. However, you should make sure the voice talent understands the capabilities of text to speech, including its potential risks, and provide explicit consent to create a synthetic version of their voice in both the contract and a verbal statement. See [Disclosure for voice talent](/azure/ai-foundry/responsible-ai/speech-service/disclosure-voice-talent).
