FAQ
Is text to speech free to use?
Yes, the tool is completely free with no character limit. It relies on the voices already installed in your browser, so there is no account to create and no subscription to pay.
Can I download the audio as an MP3?
The browser's native speech engine plays the text live but does not create a downloadable file. To capture the audio, you can use a screen or sound recorder while it plays.
Why is no French voice available?
The voices come from your operating system and browser. If a language is missing, install the matching voice pack in your Windows, macOS or Android settings, then reload the page.
