How to read it
- Packs are cheapest when you repeat the same lines. A phone menu, a kiosk, an order-status notification or a reception greeting says the same few hundred sentences all year.
- Voice-over wins when you need your own words and a human voice. A pack has no custom script, no brand voice and no human performance; the listed voice-over prices buy exactly those things.
- The API wins for sentences nobody can predict. Packs and the API combine: play the pack for the common lines and call the API for the rest.
What a pack costs per line
The largest English packs hold hundreds of lines for $24 to $199, so the price per line is a small fraction of a cent to a few cents. Compare that with the listed per-prompt voice-over prices only for the same kind of generic line; custom recording is a different product.
Honest limits
- The voices are synthetic. Where the law or good practice requires it, tell listeners they are hearing an automated voice.
- Non-English audio is marked native review pending until a native speaker approves it.
- Packs are generic, ready-made lines in the library's voices. They are not your brand voice or a script written for you; for a new sentence call the API.
- The licence lets you play the audio inside your own apps, devices and services, commercially and offline. You may not resell or redistribute the files or use them to train speech models.
Questions
Are the packs really a one-time price?
Yes. Each pack is a single payment from $24 to $199, and updated versions are free for buyers. There is no subscription and no per-play fee.
Is this cheaper than hiring a voice actor?
For generic repeated lines, usually far cheaper. For your own script, brand voice or a human performance, a voice actor is the right choice; see the table.
Can I use the audio offline?
Yes. You download the files and play them inside your own apps, kiosks and phone systems without any network call.
