Audition, a new tab on the Voices page, turns a short description of your project into a curated list of voices worth trying. Describe the tone, audience, and use case, and it returns voices that fit — each with a short explanation of why it made the list.

Using Audition

1. Navigate to Voices > Audition.
2. Enter a brief describing your project or the voice you have in mind — brand, audience, tone, and use case all help.
3. Optionally, enter text in the Sample text field (up to 150 characters). This is what each matched voice will read back to you.
4. Click on Audition.

Audition returns 12 matches, each with a short explanation of why it made the cut.

Previewing a matched voice

1. Click the Play button on any voice card to generate a preview.
2. Listen to that voice read your Sample text or a generated sample if you left the field empty.
3. To hear a different line, update the Sample text field and click Play again. This doesn't re-run Audition, so your matches stay the same.

Saving a voice from your results

Save any voice you like while you're still on the Audition tab:

• Click the heart icon on a voice card to add it to your Favorites for later.
• Click the bookmark icon on a voice card to add it to your Team Voices.
• Click on Use in a project on a voice card to start a new project with that voice already assigned.

FAQs

Q: Why did running the same brief twice give me different results? 

A: Each Audition click generates a new match, so results can vary even with an identical brief. This is expected.

Q: What does it mean when a voice is locked? 

A: The voice belongs to a plan tier higher than yours. You can see it in your results, but you'll need to upgrade to use it.
