## Shortlist

### 1. Murf AI

Voice-over Studio with timeline video syncing, downloadable audio, dubbing, and a public API.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the Studio plan cards open with the Billed Yearly switch already on, so the first figure shown for Creator is nineteen dollars a month billed as two hundred twenty-eight dollars annually, while the regular month-to-month price is twenty-nine dollars.](https://murf.ai/pricing)
- [Voices that use more: partial — On the API the studio-quality text to speech model costs three times the newest Falcon 2.1 model per thousand characters, so the choice of model changes what speech costs; Studio subscriptions instead meter hours of voice generation with no per-voice rate stated on this page.](https://murf.ai/pricing)
- [Video dubbing: yes — Murf Dub can translate existing video or audio into other languages while retaining the original speaker’s voice.](https://help.murf.ai/what-is-murf-voice-cloning)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Cost for 10 hours a month (heavy use): partial — Ten hours a month is not sold self-serve: Business tops out at eight hours for $99, so you must talk to sales.](https://murf.ai/pricing)
- [Past your allowance: partial — When Studio time runs out there is no published top-up rate: you upgrade the plan or ask support to repurchase it.](https://help.murf.ai/how-to-add-more-vgtvoice-generation-time)
- [Your voice trains their models: partial — The Enterprise Studio card promises no training on customer data; public pages do not describe a general opt-out setting.](https://murf.ai/pricing)

### 2. HeyGen

AI avatar video, voice cloning and video translation into 175+ languages with lip sync.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Voices that use more: partial — The newer engines burn the allowance far faster, 48 credits a minute for Avatar V against 4 for an Avatar III video look, and Precision dubbing costs 10 a minute against Speed's 6; no per-voice rate difference is published.](https://help.heygen.com/en/articles/15126059-how-to-use-credits-on-heygen)
- [Video dubbing: yes — Upload a file or paste a YouTube link and the speaker is re-voiced in the new language in their own cloned voice, across 175-plus languages and dialects.](https://www.heygen.com/translate)
- [Lip sync: yes — Lip sync is applied by the engine you pick: Speed and Precision both move the mouth to the translated speech, while Audio Only turns it off for footage with no face.](https://help.heygen.com/en/articles/10029081-how-to-get-started-with-video-translation)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Past your allowance: partial — Only the team plan can buy extra credits: Business tops up in blocks of 100 credits for $5, which is 5 cents a credit, with optional auto-reload, while Creator and Pro cannot buy packs at all and must move up a plan or a credit tier when the month's allowance is gone.](https://help.heygen.com/en/articles/15126059-how-to-use-credits-on-heygen)
- [Audio you get: partial — You can download just the audio or the captions SRT beside the video, and MP3 or MP4 from the podcast and cloning flows; audio-only export of a translation is Enterprise-only, and no bitrate is published for app exports.](https://help.heygen.com/en/articles/9834825-how-to-download-or-export-a-video)
- [Your voice trains their models: partial — Non-enterprise customer data may be used to train HeyGen's models with an opt-out published in the privacy policy, enterprise data is excluded, and the vendor says voice data never trains shared AI voices.](https://www.heygen.com/trust-and-safety)

### 3. Voicemaker

Credit-metered AI text-to-speech studio with 2,000+ voices, voice cloning, speech-to-speech and SRT export.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Voices that use more: yes — Yes - premium models drain the allowance faster: ProPlus Expressive, Expressive V2 and High-Res cost four credits a character, Turbo and ProV2 two.](https://voicemaker.in/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Past your allowance: partial — Paid plans can add one million credits for a one-time $20 purchase valid for one year.](https://voicemaker.in/pricing)
- [Unused credits: partial — Rollover is plan-dependent: Starter and Creator get none, Pro monthly carries credits one billing cycle, Teams and Business up to three months.](https://voicemaker.in/faq)
- [Long scripts and chapters: partial — Long scripts work, but in chunks: per-conversion caps run from 250 characters free to 10,000 on Pro, with Studio Grade Stitching smoothing continuity past 1,000 characters.](https://voicemaker.in/pricing)

### 4. Speechma

Free text to speech and creator audio tools with no account or credit card.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Video dubbing: yes — The dubbing tool accepts an uploaded video or direct link and produces a translated video with an automatic or selected target-language voice.](https://speechma.com/ai-dubbing)
- [How long a video you can dub: yes — Free dubbing accepts MP4, MOV, or WEBM files up to 60 MB and offers nine target languages.](https://speechma.com/ai-dubbing)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Cost to dub 60 minutes a month: partial — Dubbing is free and publishable, but one job accepts only a 60 MB video, so a 60-minute film must be split into parts rather than dubbed in a single pass.](https://speechma.com/ai-dubbing)
- [Past your allowance: partial — The paid API documentation sends a buyer over its monthly character quota to an upgrade, without publishing an extra-character price.](https://speechma.com/api/)
- [Pronunciation fixes: partial — There is no pronunciation dictionary that applies across a project: the vendor's only stated fix is respelling the word phonetically in the script each time.](https://speechma.com/faq)

### 5. TopMediai

AI studio for text to speech, voice cloning and video dubbing on one shared credit balance.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — promotion - the headline figures are first-period introductory prices, and each plan card prints the regular rate that follows it in smaller type.](https://www.topmediai.com/app/pricing/)
- [Video dubbing: yes — Uploading a video or a link and picking a target language returns dubbed audio that the vendor says keeps the original speaker's vocal character.](https://www.topmediai.com/ai-dubbing/)
- [Lip sync: partial — The dubbing pipeline is described as analyzing lip movements to time the new audio against them, which is sync rather than regenerating the mouth itself.](https://www.topmediai.com/ai-dubbing/)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Cost to dub 60 minutes a month: partial — Dubbing is sold by credit allowance, not by the minute: the cheapest monthly plan covers only about 24 minutes of video translation, so 60 minutes needs a bigger or second purchase.](https://www.topmediai.com/app/pricing/)
- [Commercial use: partial — Commercial rights come with the paid plans only; the vendor's own license agreement grants non-commercial personal use unless a business license has been bought.](https://www.topmediai.com/app/text-to-speech/)
- [Pronunciation fixes: partial — Only basic pronunciation fixes are offered in the web editor; the vendor points advanced phonetic control at the API instead of the studio.](https://www.topmediai.com/app/text-to-speech/)

### 6. Fish Audio

Expressive text-to-speech, voice cloning and long-form studio with a credit-metered API.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — promotion: the plan cards opened with a campaign banner halving the first month, and the annual toggle also shows a per-month figure, so two discounts stack on the headline price.](https://fish.audio/plan/)
- [Voices that use more: yes — Newer and borrowed voices cost more: on the MCP surface another team's professional clone is charged double, and in the API the drama-3 model lists at more than triple s2.1-pro.](https://docs.fish.audio/overview/mcp)
- [Lip sync: partial — Lip-sync exists for avatars built from your images and videos against a Fish Audio voice, and needs a Plus plan or higher; it is not offered as lip matching for a translated dub.](https://docs.fish.audio/overview/mcp)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Unused credits: no — Monthly allowances reset with the billing cycle and anything left is lost, which the vendor states plainly and pairs with advice to spend the allowance inside the period.](https://fish.audio/plan/)
- [Commercial use: partial — Publishing commercially starts one plan above the free one: the Free Tier card lists commercial use among the features it does not include and the vendor restricts free output to personal projects, while Plus at $15 a month lists commercial use allowed, limited to voices you own and have verified.](https://fish.audio/plan/)
- [Audiobook files: partial — The vendor advertises chapter-level audiobook narration meeting Audible's ACX specs, but it documents no retail-ready export package or store delivery step, only audio files.](https://fish.audio/)

### 7. Akool

AI video suite with video translation, lip sync, text to speech, voice cloning and a voice changer.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — yearly shown monthly: the plan cards open on the Yearly tab, where Pro reads $21 with $30 struck through under a "30% OFF" pill; clicking Monthly shows the regular $30, and Starter stays $12 either way.](https://www.akool.com/pricing)
- [Video dubbing: yes — You upload a video and Video Translation transcribes, translates and re-voices it, with an option to keep the speaker's own voice through the voice cloning and AI voice selection features.](https://www.akool.com/apps/video-translation)
- [Lip sync: yes — Lip sync is an option in the translation workflow and the comparison table marks the Lip-Sync row on every plan including Free, so mouth movements can be matched to the new language.](https://www.akool.com/apps/video-translation)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Past your allowance: partial — Running past the allowance is handled by buying credit packs, which the plan cards list only from Pro upward, plus an opt-in Dynamic Billing overdraft; no per-credit overage rate is published.](https://www.akool.com/pricing)
- [Unused credits: partial — Subscription credits are issued per billing period and expire unused on every self-serve plan; only Enterprise is listed with credits that do not expire, so rollover is a higher-tier property.](https://www.akool.com/refund-policy)
- [Commercial use: partial — The comparison table grants a business license only on the $249 Business plan; Starter, Pro and Pro Max carry a personal license and the Free plan shows no license at all, so publishing commercially means buying up.](https://www.akool.com/pricing)

### 8. Amazon Polly

Pay-per-character cloud text to speech from AWS, with four voice engines and a browser console.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Voices that use more: yes — The newer and higher-quality voices cost far more per character: Neural is four times the Standard rate, Generative seven and a half times, and Long-Form twenty-five times, so voice choice drives the bill.](https://aws.amazon.com/polly/pricing/)
- [Lip sync: partial — It does not touch video, but it returns lip-shape and word timing data alongside the audio so your own app can animate an avatar's mouth in step with the speech.](https://aws.amazon.com/polly/faqs/)
- [API: yes — An API is the main way in, with official kits for Java, Node.js, .NET, PHP, Python, Ruby, Go, C++, iOS and Android, plus a plain HTTP interface and a command line.](https://aws.amazon.com/polly/features/)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Long scripts and chapters: partial — Long scripts go through the asynchronous task operation, capped at 100,000 billed characters per submission, while a single direct request takes 3,000 billed characters and ten minutes of audio; there are no chapters or per-line regeneration.](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/polly/latest/dg/limits.html)
- [Several speakers: no — One request speaks in one voice: the markup tag that would switch voices inside a document is listed as unsupported, so dialogue or a two-host show needs separate requests stitched together yourself.](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/polly/latest/dg/limits.html)
- [Your voice trains their models: yes — The vendor says it may keep and use the text you send to improve its own machine learning, and an account-level opt-out policy is documented for turning that off.](https://aws.amazon.com/polly/faqs/)

### 9. TTSMaker

Browser text-to-speech studio with 600+ voices, a free weekly quota and character-metered paid plans.

**Where it improves on Narakeet:**
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — promotion - every paid card carries a limited-time deal badge with a countdown clock, and annual subscriptions add a bonus character add-on, so the headline figures are discounted rather than standing list prices.](https://pro.ttsmaker.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Narakeet:**
- [Cost for 10 hours a month (heavy use): partial — $23.99 a month on PRO Mini for 10 hours of 60 minutes. credits counted per character or per word are converted at the standard hour: 52,000 characters, 9,300 words LITE might cost less, but no overage price is published, so it could not be priced past its allowance. FREE ($0) includes 20000 credits; these hours need 520000, and past the allowance speech past it cannot be made.](https://pro.ttsmaker.com/pricing)
- [Unused credits: no — Unused characters are lost at the end of each cycle; the quota resets on the billing date and nothing carries forward to the next month.](https://pro.ttsmaker.com/pricing)
- [Long scripts and chapters: partial — Long scripts must be split: a single conversion is capped at 500 characters free, 10,000 on Lite and 20,000 to 30,000 on paid plans, and only dialogue work is saved as a cloud project.](https://pro.ttsmaker.com/pricing)
