Unreal speech is really great one of the things I love about unreal speech is how you can easily integrate tts to your workflow and most importantly the cost / pricing is really satisfying
Beats others in terms of pricing. Outsmarts free options with a lovely selection of pleasantly realistic voices.

Hello builders! 👋
I created Unreal Speech after wanting to listen to blogs instead of reading them, but finding existing text-to-speech options both expensive and robotic-sounding.
When the open-source Kokoro model was released, we leveraged our infrastructure expertise to make it production-ready. The result? A high-quality voice API that's incredibly cost-effective for high-volume and long-form content.
Key benefits:
- 48 natural-sounding voices across 8 languages
- Ultra-fast 300ms streaming with word-level timestamps
- Generate up to 10 hours of audio in a single request
- Fraction of the cost compared to other TTS providers
- 250K characters free to get you started
If you're building applications that need voice capabilities but don't want the hassle of deploying and scaling models yourself, Unreal Speech is the solution you've been waiting for.
I'd love to hear what you're building and how we might help!
Thanks,
Eric

@automationist Just tried Unreal Speech and I'm blown away by what it provides! 11x cheaper than Eleven Labs while maintaining impressive quality is a game-changer for developers. The 300ms latency and ability to generate 10-hour audio in just 15 minutes is perfect for my podcast transcription project. The word-level timestamps feature is exactly what I needed for my accessibility app. Already loving the free tier with 250K characters, and the Python SDK made integration incredibly smooth. Definitely my new go-to TTS solution! 👏 GL on launching!

Congrats on the launch! 🥳
With 48 voices in 8 languages, how do you ensure consistent quality and naturalness across such diverse linguistic options?
I'm an 11Labs user. Adding a discount for switching would help you increase customers!

@pederzh The quality is definitely higher with English. But adding a “switch over” discount sounds like a great idea.
Congratulations, Eric and the Unreal Speech team!
This looks like a highly competitive product, especially with its impressive cost and performance optimizations. Being 11x cheaper than 11Labs while delivering high-quality speech synthesis is a significant leap forward in the TTS space.
A question I’m curious about: Does Unreal Speech support importing eBooks or webpage URLs directly for text-to-speech conversion, instead of requiring users to manually copy and paste the text?

@marin_artisk We only support texts for now, but we should consider supporting other types! You can also try Unreal Speech on Poe, and it supports all the doc formats
