Audiobooks & podcasts
Long-form narration is where per-character pricing gets interesting. Voice One reads with an actor's attention to punctuation; Voice Turbo does two thirds the price at volume; a cloned voice makes the whole book one narrator; thirteen languages open translations. Chapter by chapter, MP3 by MP3.

Directing the read
Punctuation is the direction: commas for breath, ellipses for hesitation, dashes for cuts. Drop the speed slightly for narration, keep expressiveness moderate for a novel and higher for character dialogue. Draft chapters on Turbo to check pacing, render the final on Voice One.

Every tile opens the studio with the prompt already written.
