AI Text to Speech
Turn any text into natural-sounding speech in seconds. Paste a script, a story or an article, pick from 440+ lifelike AI voices in 24 languages, and download the audio as an MP3.
Text to speech used to mean a flat, robotic voice reading words one at a time. AI text to speech works differently: the model reads the whole sentence, understands where the stresses and pauses belong, and speaks it the way a person would - with rising questions, natural breaths and a steady pace. This AI voice generator puts 440+ of those voices in one place, across 24 languages including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. Each voice has its own character, from calm narrators and warm storytellers to upbeat hosts and confident presenters, so you can match the voice to the job instead of settling for a default. Paste your text, choose a voice, adjust the speed and generate. The audio comes back as an MP3 you can drop straight into a video editor, a podcast, a presentation or an e-learning course. It also works as a simple text reader: paste an article or your own notes and have them read out loud while you do something else. You pay only for the characters you convert, so a short line costs very little and a full script is priced by its length.
At a glance
Voices that sound human
Natural rhythm, not robot reading.
Natural delivery
Pauses, emphasis and intonation follow the meaning of the sentence, so questions sound like questions and lists sound like lists.
Emotion and speed
Slow a voice down for a tutorial, speed it up for a promo, or choose a mood such as happy, calm or surprised on voices that support it.
440+ voices, 24 languages
Find the right voice fast.
Search by name or language
Type a language or a voice name to filter the list - narrators, presenters, storytellers, young and mature voices.
Native voices per language
Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic and more each have voices recorded for that language, not an English voice with an accent.
Fair, per-character pricing
Pay for what you convert.
Short lines cost little
Credits are based on the number of characters, so a one-line greeting costs a fraction of a long script.
Standard or studio quality
Use the fast standard model for everyday voiceovers, or switch to an HD model for richer, more lifelike audio.

Good to know
Spell out unusual words — Brand names, rare surnames and abbreviations are read the way they are spelled. If one comes out wrong, write it the way it sounds.
Punctuation shapes the pace — Commas and full stops create pauses. For a slower, clearer read, break long sentences up or lower the speed.
Match the voice to the language — Pick a voice that belongs to the language of your text for the most natural accent.
