TextSpeech - Human-like AI voices for creators who hate robotic TTS
The AI voice market feels very polarized right now. You either have:
High-end tools that sound amazing but cost a fortune.
Free/Cheap tools that sound like robots and kill your audience engagement.
I started working on TextSpeech.io because I believe there’s a middle ground. Independent creators (especially those doing long-form content like 8-10 minute YouTube videos) need professional narration that doesn't eat up their entire budget.
What I focused on:
Emotional Range: Making sure the AI doesn't sound "weak" or flat.
Affordability: A pricing model that actually makes sense for someone with 0 or 1,000 subscribers.
Simplicity: No complex UI, just high-quality output.
I’m looking for early adopters to break the system and tell me what’s missing. If you have a project that needs a voice, I’d love for you to give it a spin.
The $9 one-time model is interesting.
Curious what you’re hearing most often from people who try the preview but don’t pay.
Mostly two things: (1) they want more language/voice options, and (2) some are comparison shopping with ElevenLabs free tier. The $9 price point hasn't been the blocker — it's more about feature completeness. Working on it!
Appreciate the insight — and you're absolutely right. We're laser-focused on closing that feature gap.
In the meantime, I'd encourage you to give our product a try — we're happy to top you up with 2,000 free credits so you can really put it through its paces. We'd genuinely love to hear your feedback (good or bad) as we iterate.
And if you run into any issues or have questions, I'm here and happy to help personally. Just reach out!
