The paper describes the process of automatic building of a personalized TTS system. The system was primarily developed for people facing the threat of voice loss; however, it can be used by anyone who wants to save his/her voice for any reason. Regarding the target group of users, the whole system is designed to be as simple to use as possible while still being fully autonomous.
