How to use it

  1. Type or paste your text

    Put your words into Text to speak, or press Try sample text to test it.

  2. Choose a style and voice

    Pick a Speaking style (for example Warm & friendly or News reader) and a Voice. You can also change the Speed, and Preview voice plays a short clip.

  3. Press Generate speech

    The first time, your browser downloads the voice model (about 80 MB) and a small window shows the progress. After that it is cached and starts much faster.

Tips and common questions

Why is the first run slow?

The AI voice model has to download once (about 80 MB). It is then stored in your browser, so later runs start quickly.

Can I use the audio in my videos?

Yes, you can download the WAV file and use it in your own projects.

Which voice sounds best?

Heart is marked as the best quality. Try a few with Preview voice, because the best voice depends on your text.

Can I change the pitch?

Yes. Open Advanced: pitch shift and move the Pitch slider up or down.

Privacy

The voice model runs on your own device. Your text is not uploaded; only the model files are downloaded.
