Text to Speech AI

Key Benefits of Text to Speech Online

Direct Every Line & Emotion

Type a short note like [cheerful] or [pause] right before the words, and the AI voice says the line in the way you want it.

Pick the Right Voice

Choose a preset voice by accent, gender, and age, or upload a recording of your own voice to clone it.

Voice, Video, and Music Together

One OpenArt subscription makes the voiceover, the video, and the background music for the same ad or film.

Key Features of AI Text to Speech Generator

Tell the AI Voice How to Say Each Line

OpenArt's AI text to speech follows short notes that you type in square brackets inside your script. Write [whispering] before a quiet line, [laughs] after a joke, or [pause] before a big reveal. With Fish Audio Drama 3, the mood can even change partway through a line, so a voice can start calm and end in a panic.

Choose a Voice or Clone Your Own

Create voice-over gives you a list of preset voices, and each one is labeled by accent, gender, and age, like "American, male, middle-aged." Pick the voice that fits your brand or your character, then pick the same voice for every new script so it always sounds like the same person. You can also upload a recording of your own voice and clone it, so the AI voice reads your scripts in your voice.

Powered by the Best AI Audio Models

OpenArt lets you switch voice models for each script. Fish Audio Drama 3 is built for close direction, so you can whisper, stress, or slow down just a few words and drop a sigh or a breath exactly where you want it. Eleven v4 and Eleven v4 Turbo read your whole script to work out the feeling behind each line, so a line that comes after bad news sounds sad on its own. Eleven v4 also keeps the voice steady when you rewrite one line and make it again.

Add Your Voiceover to an OpenArt Video

OpenArt makes the pictures, the video, and the sound for the same project. Make your clips in OpenArt's AI video generator, or plan a longer story up to 5 mins in Director mode. Download your voiceover and drop it onto the video in any video editor. One platform covers the visuals, the voice, and the music for the whole video.
