Choose a voice
Type or paste a short passage, choose a voice, then press Play. Listen before deciding whether to keep it. Anonymous playback has a 1,500-character limit per generation. Saving and downloading come after the account step.
Keep UK spelling in the script and captions. Check local place names in a complete sentence, where the listener will hear them.
Compare the available voices
This British English collection has 117 voices: 55 male and 62 female. Compare a practical instruction as well as the welcome line; a friendly opening does not tell you how a voice will handle the detail. There are 72 Emotional-tier voices. Emotion presets apply to these voices; use them only when their delivery suits the message.
Filter by voice gender and quality. Quality labels are Standard, Premium and Emotional; show only options available in this collection. Choose a voice by its actual sample, rather than by the tier name alone.

Write for people using the service in the UK
Keep the script close to the task. A collection message should say where to collect the parcel and what to bring. A college welcome should explain the next step. Decorative introductions delay the detail someone came to hear.
Use the vocabulary already printed on your signs and forms. If the sign says lift, the recording should say lift. Keep colour, centre and programme consistent across the script and anything shown beside it. This is particularly useful when the same team also keeps an American version.
Write deadlines as spoken dates rather than a string of slashes. For a time-sensitive notice, say the day and the part of the day when they matter. Give a telephone number room to be heard; don't place it in a long sentence full of other instructions.
Place names deserve an early preview. Leicester and Loughborough are useful reminders that spelling is a poor guide to the expected sound. If a name needs a fixed reading, set it in the studio pronunciation dictionary, available on every plan. Then listen to the sentence again. A correct name can still be rushed between two clauses.
Put the recording to work
- For branch opening notices, state the affected location before the changed hours. Keep the normal-hours script separate so an old closure does not slip into the next recording.
- For staff onboarding, match the words to the labels employees see on doors and equipment. Ask a new starter to follow the instruction without looking at your draft.
- For college lessons, use the same term for a course unit throughout. Preview the subject abbreviations before voicing the rest of the lesson.
- For collection instructions, lead with the collection point, then the proof the customer needs. Listen once without the written version to check whether the order is usable.
From script to audio
- Paste the passage you want to hear. Keep the sentence with the awkward name or abbreviation in your first test.
- Pick a voice from this collection. Use this voice returns that choice to the same script tool.
- Press Play and listen through. After the result, save and download the MP3 with a free account. Continue in the studio for document or URL import, pronunciation editing and downloads.
What the free account includes
The Free plan includes every voice and unlimited studio previews. A free account can download its output as MP3 within its credit allowance. The allowance is 2,500 credits, given once, not renewed monthly.
Free use is for personal projects and evaluation. Commercial rights require a paid plan. If you are making a client deliverable or an advertisement, check the plan terms before using the recording. Prices on these pages are in USD. A voice preview helps you choose; it does not settle the rights for the finished project.
Before you make your recording
The page tool is designed for listening before signup, within the per-generation character limit. Paste your passage and press Play. An account is needed to keep and download the result.
Use the account action after your audio is ready. A free account supports MP3 downloads within its credit allowance. The download step happens in the studio, after you continue with the result.
Yes. Every voice is included on Free, with unlimited studio previews. The one-time credit allowance applies to generated output; unlimited previews do not mean unlimited downloadable recordings.
Use the collection's gender filter and listen to its samples. Availability varies by locale. The counts above describe this collection, so a missing gender cannot be selected by changing the filter.
Commercial rights are included on paid plans; Free is for personal use and evaluation. Choose the plan for the intended use, including client work, rather than assuming an MP3 download grants commercial rights.
Write the spoken form whenever a figure could be read in several ways. Preview dates, amounts, abbreviations and reference numbers in context. In the studio, the pronunciation dictionary is available on every plan.
No single collection label tells you how every individual voice sounds. Play the actual samples and your own passage. If the audience is in Wales, compare the Wales page too. Don't assume a British label guarantees a particular local accent or the pronunciation of your branch name.
Keep the instruction consistent, but write the spoken version so it can stand alone. Expand a shortened date or label if a listener would not understand it without seeing the notice. Check both versions together before you replace an existing recording.
Keep a shared core, but check the local names, opening arrangements and contact details in each version. A correct head-office script can give the wrong instruction at another branch. Preview those local lines with the selected voice before treating the recording as ready.
Continue in Listen2It
Listen2It is an AI audio suite: voiceover, dubbing, music, and sound effects, with a multi-track editor. For an existing recording, explore dubbing; its supported languages are a separate list from these voices. You can also explore voice changing, voice cloning, pricing or all languages. Choose the tool for the material you already have: written script or recorded speech.

Paste the notice your audience actually needs to hear. Start with the line containing the location or deadline, then play it without reading along. The button returns you to the same tool and keeps your work.
