Speaker 1: Recently, the technological advancements in AI text-to-speech voice generating tools have been remarkable. Tools such as Speechify, NaturalReader, Welsed Labs, Revoicer, and MurphAI have now reached a level that can generate human-like voices with great accuracy. However, one must admit that these tools can come with a hefty price tag. If you are looking for free AI text-to-speech voice generators, this video is the perfect solution for you. After conducting extensive research and testing, we have curated a list of the six best AI voice generators that are perfect for new YouTubers. But before diving into these fantastic tools, let's address the elephant in the room which is, can you get monetized using text-to-speech AI voices? While it's technically possible, it is also essential to understand that the platform has strict guidelines for monetization. To qualify for monetization on YouTube, a channel must have a minimum of 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours within the past 12 months. Additionally, the content must adhere to YouTube's community guidelines. Suppose your content solely consists of readings of other materials you did not initially create, such as text from websites or news feeds. In that case, it may not meet YouTube's quality standards for monetization. Similarly, repetitive or low-value content that lacks educational value will not meet the criteria. YouTube prioritizes channels that create original, high-quality content that engages viewers and establishes a community. However, if you can produce compelling content using text-to-speech or AI-generated voices, you will be eligible for monetization. Several YouTube channels have already been monetized using AI voices. If you want to learn more, you can watch this video. We have provided the link in the description. Now that we understand how YouTube channels can be monetized using AI voices, let's explore some of the best text-to-speech AI voice generators. Firstly, we will present three of our favorite freemium options, followed by three free AI text-to-speech generators you can use as much as you like. We will showcase voice demos and provide a tutorial on how to use them. So let us begin. The first AI voice generator on our list is Descript, which is also our favorite. It's an all-in-one tool that can help you complete your full workflow. However, since we are only interested in the transcription feature, we will focus on that. By default, Descript offers nine stock voices, which may seem like a little, but each of the stock voices sounds amazing, and each voice has several different styles. Here, have a listen. Another great feature of Descript is that you can feed it your audio and create your own unique AI voice. Their free plan allows you to do one hour of transcription per month, and if you need more, you can upgrade to their creator plan and enjoy 10 hours of transcription per month. Pilebin Labs is the next freemium AI speech software on our list, another popular tool that offers realistic, versatile, and lifelike voices. Here are some of the voice demos so you can judge for yourself.

Speaker 2: So how's Eleven different? The way we achieve this is down to the way we've built our model. It's trained to understand what is being said and to adjust delivery accordingly. Editors' picks. The biggest opportunity in generative AI is language, not images.

Speaker 3: In my younger and more vulnerable years, my father gave me the most realistic and versatile AI speech software ever. Eleven brings the most compelling, rich, and lifelike voices to creators and publishers seeking the ultimate tools for storytelling.

Speaker 1: What do you think? We think it is pretty awesome. It can clone voices from samples or clone your own voice. You can try it for free and convert up to 10,000 characters per month. Although it is not much, the starter plan costs only $5 per month. Last freemium AI voice generator tool on this listing is Google Cloud Text-to-Speech. It's pretty easy to use. Simply visit their website, enter your text, and click on the button. You can choose your preferred language and play with all the different voice types and names. The only downside is that you cannot download the converted speech from this website. For this, you will either need to use your system's built-in voice recorder or download third-party software like Audacity.

Speaker 4: As an easy-to-use API, you can create lifelike interactions across many applications and devices. Google Cloud Text-to-Speech enables developers to synthesize natural-sounding speech with 100 plus voices, available in multiple languages and variants. It applies DeepMind's groundbreaking research in WaveNet and Google's powerful neural networks to deliver the highest fidelity possible. As an easy-to-use API, you can create lifelike interactions with your users across many applications and devices. Google Cloud Text-to-Speech is priced based on the number of characters sent to the service to be synthesized into audio each month. The first 1 million characters for WaveNet voices are free each month.

Speaker 1: Now we will show you the three completely free AI Text-to-Speech generators. First, we have Microsoft Edge Browser. Yes, you heard that right. Microsoft Edge has read-aloud features which we can use not only to read articles, but also to convert text-to-speech. Let's show you how. First, convert your written script to a PDF file. Then open it with Microsoft Edge Browser. Now click on the read-aloud button, and it will start reading your documents. You can change the default voice from here. There are lots of options to choose from.

Speaker 5: But the good news is there are plenty of available options in the market including Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and so on which can give you the same level of powerful features with much-optimized performance in a user-friendly interface. That's why in this article, we have gathered the five best Premiere Pro alternatives. Alternatives that you can use for video editing.

Speaker 6: 5. Filmora

Speaker 7: No doubt Adobe Premiere is a great video editing software, but it's too complicated for beginners. That's why creative beginners need video editing software.

Speaker 8: Software that is simple to use without any learning curve. And Filmora by Wondershare is perfect for that. The first thing you will notice is how user-friendly this software is.

Speaker 6: It has been designed to be easy to use.

Speaker 6: Because this software has lots of useful features up its sleeve. From keyframing to color grading, all the useful features are built right into this app. Besides, it can export your final video in any format.

Speaker 1: Unfortunately, there is also no option to download. So again, you have to use your system's built-in voice recorder or third-party apps like Audacity. Next on our list is Clipjamp. It's a free online video editing tool from Microsoft that you can also use as an AI text-to-speech tool. Once you are on the website, click try for free option. Then click on this button where it says to create a new video. It will take you to the main video editor. Go to the record and create option from here and select text-to-speech. Now you can place your script in this box and listen to how it sounds. You can also play with different voices and styles.

Speaker 9: Moreover, you can change the language, speech speed, and voice pitch.

Speaker 1: Once you are satisfied with everything, you can save this to the media. Then you must export it as a full HD video format and convert it to MP3. It's a two-way process, so if you don't like this method, check out the next option.

Speaker 7: Next on our list is Balabolka. Create beautiful videos in no time with our popular and much-loved free video editor.

Speaker 1: This brings us to the last AI text-to-speech tool, which is called Balabolka. It's a completely free app that you can download from this website. Once you have downloaded and installed the app onto your computer, launch the software. The user interface is pretty classic and very easy to use. You can paste your script here and select voices from here. By default, it only has two stock voices. But don't worry, you can go to the tools menu and use the online text-to-speech service to access tons of voices from services like Google, Amazon, IBM, Microsoft, and many more. Once you find a suitable voice, you can paste your script, choose the location to save the converted audio file, and click on the save button. Once it finishes processing, you will find the audio file on your computer. Let's listen to the audio.

Speaker 10: Balabolka is a text-to-speech TTS program. All computer voices installed on your system are available to Balabolka. The on-screen text can be saved as an audio file.
