Things people usually ask.
What is the difference between Pro and browser voices?
Browser voices are the default voices built into your device. They are unlimited and free. Pro voices are more natural and use credits when generating audio.
How do credits work?
Credits meter Pro narration by text length. Browser voices do not use credits, so you can keep listening even when you are saving Pro credits for important reads.
Can I listen to PDFs?
Yes. Upload a selectable-text PDF in the reader and VoxenVoice extracts the text before playback.
Can I save generated audio?
Yes. Completed Pro generations are archived as audio files and linked to the reading that created them.
Press play on the things you keep meaning to read.
Free to try. Browser voices stay unlimited.
