Everything About Text to Speech

Answers to the most common questions about AI voice generation.

What is text to speech and how does it work?

Text to speech (TTS) converts written text into spoken audio using AI. Google's Neural2 and WaveNet models use deep learning to generate speech that sounds remarkably close to a natural human voice — including natural rhythm, intonation, and emphasis.

Is VoiceWave completely free?

Yes — completely free. No hidden charges, no premium tiers, no credit card. Generate and download as many audio files as you need at no cost.

Can I preview voices before generating?

Yes! Click the ▶ play button on any voice card to hear a sample using your browser's built-in speech engine. This lets you pick the perfect voice without wasting any conversions.

How do I add pauses to my audio?

Use the Insert Pause buttons above the text area. A short pause (comma) adds about 0.5 seconds, medium (semicolon) adds 1 second, and long (ellipsis) adds 1.5–2 seconds. You can also type these punctuation marks directly into your text.

What is the difference between Neural2 and WaveNet voices?

Neural2 voices are Google's latest generation — more natural with better rhythm and intonation. WaveNet voices are the previous generation, still very high quality with a slightly different character. For most uses Neural2 is recommended.

How long can my text be?

VoiceWave supports up to 3,000 characters per conversion — around 400–500 words or 3 minutes of audio. For longer texts, split into sections and generate each separately.

What can I use the audio for?

Generated MP3 files can be used for YouTube videos, podcasts, e-learning, audiobooks, presentations, social media, and any personal or commercial project. No restrictions on usage.

How is AI TTS used in accessibility?

TTS is one of the most important accessibility technologies available — it helps people with dyslexia, visual impairments, or reading difficulties consume written content as audio, and supports language learners and hands-free consumption.
