About this tool

Type or paste your text, choose a voice, and this tool reads it aloud in a natural AI voice on our own GPU — the clip plays right here on the page and downloads as a WAV. Today's neural voices are a long way from the flat, robotic readers people remember; they carry rhythm, emphasis and natural pauses. There is a small, hand-picked set of US and UK English voices to choose from, and you can run up to 2000 characters per clip, which suits a video voiceover, a listen-along version of something you wrote, or a quick spoken line you would rather not record yourself. If you already have audio and want the words instead, the AI speech-to-text tool in this section does the opposite job.

What people use it for

  • Voice a video narration from a written script
  • Make a listen-along audio version of an article or notes
  • Add a spoken read-aloud for accessibility
  • Generate a quick voice clip without recording yourself

Frequently asked questions

Far less than they once could. The neural voices reproduce natural pacing, emphasis and breath-like pauses, so a short, well-written clip often passes as a human read. Very long or oddly punctuated passages are where the seams still show.

Up to 2000 characters per generation — roughly a few short paragraphs. For something longer, split it into sections and generate them in turn, then join the WAVs in any audio editor.

The clip plays inline as soon as it is ready and downloads as a WAV file, which is uncompressed and clean to drop into a video editor or convert to MP3 with any audio tool.

Generated speech wins for speed, consistency across many clips, and times when you have no quiet space or no wish to be on mic. Record yourself when the piece leans on your own personality or emotional delivery — that is still hard to fully fake.

Yes — the AI speech-to-text tool in this section transcribes recordings into written text. It is the direct counterpart to this one.

It is free with no signup and no watermark on the audio. The voices run on a shared GPU, so a Pro account gets priority when it is busy and unlocks longer clips.
