AI Voiceover Generator

Turn approved narration into reusable speech for videos, explainers, stories and talking presenters.

Surfstats Audio AI lets you write or import narration, choose a spoken language, browse and preview Google or ElevenLabs voices, reuse favorites or authorized voice clones, see the credit estimate, generate the MP3 and carry that speech into the video workflow that needs it.

Create voiceover Start from a script Ask Surfstats first
Previewing, editing and organizing drafts are separate from paid synthesis. The editor shows the applicable credit estimate before generation.

Preview provider voices
Browse Google and ElevenLabs choices and listen before generating the full narration.
Reuse voice favorites
Keep frequently used voices available across Audio AI and Video Studio.
Use saved voice clones

Voiceover workflow preview

Write the narration, hear the voice, then reuse the audio where the production needs it.

Surfstats connects Scriptwriter, Audio AI, provider voice browsing, spoken-language controls, custom voice clones, live credit estimation and downstream video/audio workflows instead of treating text-to-speech as a one-off download.

How it works

Write → choose voice → preview → estimate → generate → reuse.

01

Write or import narration

Type the narration directly or send a saved Scriptwriter script into a Voiceover draft with cleaned narration already loaded.

02

Choose provider and language

Select Google TTS or ElevenLabs, choose the spoken-language code explicitly and then select a compatible stock or saved cloned voice.

03

Preview the voice

Listen to a short preview, browse alternatives and save frequently used voices as favorites before generating the full narration.

04

Check length and credits

Review word/character counts, estimated narration time and the live provider/model credit estimate before spending.

05

Generate the MP3

Surfstats performs the current plan/credit checks, generates the speech and restores applicable credits if an eligible paid synthesis fails.

06

Reuse the speech

Download the result or use it with Video Studio, Explainer Video, Character Vlog, Lip Sync, One-Click Story or final Video Editor assembly.

Start from the job

Eight useful voiceover workflows.

Use a starter narration when useful, then edit the text, voice, language and provider before generating.

Browse all examples

Product demo voiceover

Start from a concise 20-second product-demo narration draft, then choose the actual voice and provider before generating.

Open workflow

Explainer narration

Create a calm explanatory draft for a tutorial, service explanation or educational video, then hand the audio into Explainer Video or Video Studio.

Open workflow

Short-form voiceover

Start from a fast hook-benefit-CTA structure suitable for Shorts, Reels, TikTok-style edits or social promos.

Open workflow

Story narration

Create a slower documentary/story narration draft and combine it with One-Click Story, music, ambience and final assembly.

Open workflow

Professional business voice

Start from a measured professional narration draft for a business/service presentation and customize wording, language and voice.

Open workflow

Multilingual narration

Choose one of Surfstats' spoken-language presets and a compatible provider voice. The text is spoken as written; Audio AI does not silently translate it.

Open workflow

Clone an authorized voice

Create a reusable ElevenLabs or supported Google custom voice when you have the necessary rights and consent, then use that clone in future voiceovers.

Open workflow

Talking presenter / lip sync

Generate or supply the speech track first, then combine it with the presenter/source video in Lip Sync when visible mouth movement must follow the narration.

Open workflow
Voice controls

Choose the speech before you pay for the full narration.

Audio AI exposes the provider, language, selected voice, preview and cost information that matter before synthesis instead of hiding everything behind one Generate button.

Open Audio AI Voiceover Open Audio Library
Google TTS or ElevenLabs
Choose the configured provider route instead of treating every voice as the same model. Provider/model choice affects availability and cost.
Preview before generating
Browse and preview available provider voices before committing to the full narration, reducing avoidable paid retries.
Favorite voices
Save frequently used voices in the browser and reuse the same favorites in Audio AI and Video Studio Step 2.
25 spoken-language presets
Choose the spoken-language code explicitly. Provider support varies, and the narration is spoken as written rather than automatically translated.
Word & duration estimate
The editor shows word, character and estimated narration length while you edit the text so you can tighten pacing before generation.
Live credit estimate
Voiceover cost is estimated from the selected provider/model and UTF-8 text size before generation rather than using a fixed public price.
Voice cloning

Clone only voices you are authorized to use.

Surfstats can route supported voice-clone workflows through configured ElevenLabs or Google custom-voice capabilities. Voice cloning has stricter consent and provider-access requirements than selecting a standard stock voice.

  • Use your own voice or obtain the necessary permission from the speaker.
  • Google Chirp 3 Instant Custom Voice requires a consent recording and may require allow-listed provider access.
  • For Google custom voice, use the consent statement required for the selected language and record it in the same voice.
  • Supported sample/consent uploads are validated for format and size before processing.
  • Once a clone is completed, it can be selected in a normal voiceover draft rather than recreated for every narration.

Language behavior

Language controls pronunciation—not translation.

Audio AI speaks the text you provide. Choosing Afrikaans, French, Japanese or another language changes the language/voice compatibility; it does not translate English wording automatically.

If you need translated copy first, prepare the approved wording before voice generation so names, claims and meaning can be reviewed separately from pronunciation.

Connected audio toolchain

Voiceover is one production layer, not an isolated file.

Stop after the MP3 if that is all you need, or continue into the Surfstats tool that owns the finished video, presenter, story, soundtrack or edit.

Ask Surfstats

Describe the finished narrated asset and get the recommended tools, order, settings and estimated production credits before generating.

Credits & cost control

Voiceover cost depends on the voice route and text size.

Surfstats calculates voiceover pricing from the selected provider/model and the UTF-8 size of the narration. The editor requests the current estimate instead of relying on a fixed public credit number.

  • Preview and edit the text before generating the full track.
  • Shorter approved narration generally uses fewer synthesis resources than longer narration.
  • Provider/model selection can change the applicable price.
  • Plan generation guardrails and the available credit balance are separate checks.
  • Eligible failed paid voiceover generations are designed to restore the applicable Surfstats credits.
How credits work Compare plans
Quality & responsibility

Review the actual spoken result before publishing.

Text-to-speech can mispronounce names, acronyms, numbers or unusual terms even when the underlying script is correct. Final listening and factual review remain important.

  • Check names, brands, prices, dates and regulated claims in the script.
  • Listen for pronunciation, pacing and unwanted emphasis.
  • Do not clone or imitate a real person's voice without the necessary rights and consent.
  • Provider/model terms can impose additional restrictions or availability requirements.
  • Keep music/SFX levels and lip-sync timing separate from voice quality review when producing video.

FAQ

Voiceover Generator questions

Audio AI supports configured Google TTS and ElevenLabs voice routes. Saved ElevenLabs clones and supported Google Instant Custom Voice clones can also appear as selectable voices when they are ready.

Yes. The Audio AI editor includes provider voice browsers and selected-voice preview controls. You can also save frequently used voices as browser favorites.

No. The language setting controls pronunciation and voice compatibility. Audio AI speaks the supplied text as written, so translated wording should be prepared and reviewed before synthesis.

Yes. A saved Scriptwriter result can create a Voiceover draft with cleaned narration and the script's spoken-language choice already carried across. You still review the voice and generate the audio separately.

Surfstats includes configured voice-clone routes for ElevenLabs and supported Google custom-voice workflows. Only clone a voice you are authorized to use, and follow the provider's consent and access requirements.

Voiceover pricing is calculated from the selected provider/model and the UTF-8 byte size of the narration. The editor requests the current estimate before generation, so a fixed public number would be misleading.

Surfstats records the generation attempt and is designed to restore the applicable spent credits for an eligible synthesis failure. A valid completed voice that simply needs different creative choices is different from a provider failure.

Use the generated MP3 with Video Studio, Explainer Video, Character Vlog, Lip Sync, One-Click Story or Video Editor depending on the job. For long-form presenters, Surfstats can orchestrate per-segment Audio AI speech and lip sync.

Start with the approved words, then choose the right voice.

Create a standalone narration track, send a Scriptwriter result into Voiceover, or ask Surfstats which audio/video path best fits the finished asset.
