66 AI voices including 28 American English options for US creators. Natural speech for YouTube, podcasts and audiobooks — free to start, $9.99/mo unlimited.
The United States is the largest text-to-speech market in the world. Grand View Research and Mordor Intelligence both estimate the global TTS market at roughly $4-5 billion in 2024, with North America accounting for somewhere around 35-40% of revenue. The reason is concentration: most of the demand drivers — the YouTube creator economy, audiobook publishing, e-learning, accessibility narration under ADA Section 508, corporate IVR, and podcast advertising — are headquartered or culturally anchored here.
For creators specifically, the math is brutal at scale. A YouTube channel that publishes three 10-minute videos a week is generating roughly 250,000-300,000 characters of narration per month. On a pay-per-character TTS service, that runs $80-200 per month before you pick a voice that sounds anything close to broadcast quality. ElevenLabs' Creator plan is $22/month for 100K characters; PlayHT charges $39/month for 600 minutes; Speechify Audiobooks is on a separate price track entirely. EasyVoice's $9.99 flat-rate Pro plan is built specifically for the high-volume American creator who hit a usage wall on a metered competitor.
Audiobook publishers operate at even higher volumes. A 60,000-word manuscript is roughly 350,000 characters. Traditional human narration runs $200-400 per finished hour through services like ACX. Self-publishing authors using AI narration are doing 10-20 books a year — at metered TTS pricing, that's a real line item. Flat-rate pricing changes the production math entirely.
Native USD pricing — no conversion needed.
The US is also where most of EasyVoice's competition lives. ElevenLabs is headquartered in New York and is the current quality leader for English narration; PlayHT operates out of San Francisco; Speechify is based in Miami and focuses on the consumer "read web pages aloud" market; WellSaid Labs is in Seattle and targets enterprise. Each has real strengths — ElevenLabs' voice cloning, PlayHT's voice library breadth, Speechify's iOS app — but all four price by characters, minutes, or seats. EasyVoice is the flat-rate alternative for users whose volumes make per-character billing painful, with the honest trade-off that our 66 voices and Kokoro-based synthesis don't yet match ElevenLabs' top-tier voice quality on every dimension.
Yes. The 28 American English voices on EasyVoice are predominantly General American — the broadcast-standard accent used in most US YouTube content, audiobooks, and corporate narration. We don't currently offer dialect-specific voices like Southern, New York, or Midwestern accents; for those use cases, ElevenLabs' voice cloning may be a better fit. Most creators find General American works for ~90% of US-targeted content.
ElevenLabs Creator is $22/mo for 100K characters (~50 minutes of audio). PlayHT Creator is $39/mo for 600 minutes. EasyVoice Pro is $9.99/mo with no character cap — the same monthly cost regardless of whether you generate 10K or 10M characters. For creators producing more than ~30 minutes of audio per month, the math favors flat-rate pricing.
Yes. All EasyVoice Pro outputs are licensed for commercial use, including monetized YouTube, audiobooks sold on ACX/Audible, podcast advertising, paid courses, and client work. The free tier is also commercial-use licensed; we do not paywall commercial rights.
EasyVoice generates audio output that you can use to make your content WCAG-compliant (e.g., providing audio alternatives to text). The TTS service itself is a tool — Section 508 compliance applies to the published content, not the generation tool. Many US universities, government contractors, and accessibility-focused publishers use AI TTS as part of their compliance workflow.
Billing is in USD through Stripe. Support is email-only: we reply within 24 hours on weekdays, from Dubai. We don't offer phone support; for enterprise use cases that require it, contact us directly.
ACX's policy on AI narration has evolved — as of late 2024, ACX accepts AI-narrated audiobooks but requires disclosure. Most independent platforms (Findaway Voices, Google Play Books, Apple Books) accept AI narration. Always check the specific retailer's current policy before submitting; we make no guarantee of acceptance because the rules are platform-specific and changing.
