Questions
Is this text to speech tool free?
Yes. Every language has free voices, with up to 2,000 characters a run. Pro will add premium voices and longer texts.
Which languages can I use?
27 languages, including English (US and UK), Spanish (Spain and Mexico), French, German, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Ukrainian and Urdu.
What are Pro voices?
Pro voices are extra voices you can already preview. They become available when Pro launches. Until then, every free voice works with no account.
How long can my text be?
Up to 2,000 characters a run on the free plan. Longer texts can be split into parts.
Do I need to sign in?
No. Sign in only if you want your files kept in your library, where they stay for 24 hours on the free plan.
Some voices show a credit line. Why?
Those voices were made with openly licensed recordings, and the licence asks us to name them. The credit appears in the voice’s details.
