Gradium is a bundled text-to-speech provider for OpenClaw. It can generate normal audio replies, voice-note-compatible Opus output, and 8 kHz u-law audio for telephony surfaces.

Setup

Create a Gradium API key, then expose it to OpenClaw:
export GRADIUM_API_KEY="gsk_..."
You can also store the key in config under messages.tts.providers.gradium.apiKey.

{
  messages: {
    tts: {
      auto: "always",
      provider: "gradium",
      providers: {
        gradium: {
