AI narration · about 1 minPeople searching "free AI voiceover online" want two things: hear the result first, then decide whether to pay. Here's exactly what free covers and what paid adds.
Try it without logging in
Open the homepage — the first screen is the studio. Pick a language (Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Italian), pick a voice, type up to 200 characters, generate. It plays within seconds. No account, no email.
Want more? Under the voiceover tab are 30+ real examples: news, live selling, audiobooks, game characters, four emotions, three accents, eight languages — everyday output at default settings, unselected.
Free credits after signup
Signing up grants trial credits for every tool in the studio: long-form, dialogue, cloning, transcription, sound effects, dubbing… Each button shows its credit price; failures refund automatically.
Free vs paid, honestly
| | Free trial | Paid plans | | --- | --- | --- | | Text per run | 200 chars | 5,000 chars / 50,000 long-form | | Model | Flash | Flagship + emotion tags | | Voices | 17 curated | 5,000+ library + cloning | | Subtitle export | — | Character-level SRT | | Commercial use | Preview only | Paid-plan output is licensed |
When to pay
- Publishing to platforms (YouTube, TikTok, podcasts) → needs a paid plan's commercial license
- Subtitle sync → the free trial has no timestamps
- Emotional delivery, fixed voices, multilingual distribution → flagship model and the voice library
Starter is $5/month, about 15% below comparable tools — 600 credits, roughly 50 voiceovers, enough for most solo creators.
