Speechelo

Speechelo is a text to speech tool that turns pasted text into voiceover audio for video projects. The user pastes a script, picks a language and voice, and downloads the generated audio, which the vendor says takes under ten seconds. The vendor markets the output as indistinguishable from human narration and states a guarantee to that effect. The site lists more than 30 voices, male and female, across English and 23 other languages. The tool adds punctuation automatically to make delivery sound natural, and lets the user insert breathing sounds and longer pauses and choose between normal, joyful and serious tones. Because the output is a downloadable audio file, it can be dropped into any editor, and the vendor names Camtasia, Adobe Premiere, iMovie and Audacity. The vendor positions it for sales videos, training videos and educational videos. Pricing is a one time payment with no monthly fees. The home page shows a founders offer of $47 against a stated normal price of $97, and the offer carries no end date. Tax or VAT is added at checkout where it applies. The vendor also states that after its launch special ends the product will be sold at a higher price that includes a monthly charge, so the amount charged may differ from the figure shown. No separate pricing page is published.
