## Shortlist

### 1. Narakeet

Duration-priced browser voice-over and narrated-video maker with non-expiring capacity.

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [Past your allowance: yes — Additional capacity is sold as non-recurring top-up credit; the stated 30-minute pack costs twenty cents per minute.](https://www.narakeet.com/docs/pricing/)
- [Unused credits: yes — Purchased capacity remains available for future use rather than expiring at a monthly billing boundary.](https://www.narakeet.com/docs/pricing/)
- [Long scripts and chapters: yes — Long documents are supported as projects, with commercial audio scripts up to 1024 KB and a polling interface built for big conversions; per-line regeneration is not described.](https://www.narakeet.com/docs/automating/text-to-speech-api/)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [Voices that use more: no — Charging depends on output length alone, not on which of the 900 voices you pick, so newer or more expressive voices do not drain the allowance faster.](https://www.narakeet.com/docs/pricing/)

### 2. HeyGen

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

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [Unused credits: yes — Unused monthly credits carry into one further cycle, roughly 60 days in all, and annual subscribers accumulate theirs until renewal; everything unused is lost if you drop to Free.](https://help.heygen.com/en/articles/15126059-how-to-use-credits-on-heygen)
- [Long scripts and chapters: yes — Scripts run as multi-scene projects with per-scene voices and per-line re-renders, and a seed holds delivery steady across fifty takes or a 40-minute lesson; single videos reach 30 minutes on Creator and Pro.](https://www.heygen.com/models/heygen-voice-1)
- [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)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [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)
- [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. Speechma

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

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [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)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [Voices that use more: no — Premium HD voices do not consume more allowance: they are free on the site, and every API plan includes the full voice catalog at one character rate.](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)
- [Team seats: no — There is nothing to share: the free site has no accounts at all, so no shared workspace, seat pricing or per-seat collaboration exists.](https://speechma.com/faq)

### 4. Murf AI

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

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [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)
- [Unused credits: yes — Unused Studio time can roll into only the immediately following renewal cycle and is lost after cancellation.](https://help.murf.ai/vgt-carry-forward)
- [Long scripts and chapters: yes — Scripts import as docx, txt or srt and break into blocks and sub-blocks, each regenerable on its own; no chapter feature is named.](https://help.murf.ai/what-is-voice-generation-time-vgt)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [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)
- [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)
- [Consent of the voice’s owner: partial — Enterprise cloning rules require ownership or clear documented consent for the voice submitted to Murf.](https://help.murf.ai/are-there-any-specifications-for-recording-the-voice-data)

### 5. Fish Audio

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

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [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/)
- [Long scripts and chapters: yes — Story Studio is a project editor for long-form, multi-speaker audio, and its credit rule says blocks whose audio is current are free, so single blocks can be regenerated cheaply.](https://docs.fish.audio/overview/platform)
- [API: yes — A REST and WebSocket API with Python and JavaScript SDKs is sold pay-as-you-go; the docs say no subscription is required while the plan FAQ says premium subscribers get access, which conflicts.](https://docs.fish.audio/developer-guide/models-pricing/pricing-and-rate-limits)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [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/)
- [Your voice trains their models: yes — The terms authorize Fish Audio to train its models on your content and usage data, and the only published way out is the Enterprise plan's zero data retention, not a self-serve switch.](https://fish.audio/terms/)

### 6. Akool

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

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [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)
- [What the free plan leaves on your audio: yes — The Free column of the comparison table shows a full-screen watermark where every paid tier reads Removal, and the same table leaves the Free license row empty, so free output is not publishable.](https://www.akool.com/pricing)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [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)
- [Pronunciation fixes: partial — A Voice Dictionary fixes how words are said across a translation project, but the comparison table withholds it from the Free plan, and brand-terminology Studio Voice only starts on Pro Max.](https://www.akool.com/pricing)
- [Several speakers: partial — Video Translation detects multiple speakers in an uploaded video so each gets its own translated voice, but no page read describes assigning several voices inside one text to speech script.](https://www.akool.com/apps/video-translation)

### 7. TopMediai

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

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [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/)
- [Professional cloning: yes — A separate High-Precision mode trains on longer recordings and is described as capturing speaking style, emotion and rhythm rather than timbre alone.](https://www.topmediai.com/app/ai-voice-cloning/)
- [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/)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [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/)
- [Consent of the voice’s owner: partial — The terms make you warrant that the voice owner authorized the clone, but describe no verification step or proof the vendor collects before cloning.](https://www.topmediai.com/terms-conditions/)

### 8. Amazon Polly

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

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [Past your allowance: yes — There is no plan to exhaust: once the free tier allowance for a voice type is used up, every further character is billed at that voice type's published per-million rate, and requesting timing data is billed again.](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 Voicemaker:**
- [Re-voice your recording: no — It converts written text only; you send text and get audio back, so there is no way to record your own line and have it returned in another voice with your timing.](https://aws.amazon.com/polly/faqs/)
- [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. Typecast

Expressive AI voice generator with emotion controls, voice cloning and a developer speech API.

**Where it improves on Voicemaker:**
- [Promotion and regular price: yes — none: the selector opens on Monthly and the plan cards show the regular monthly rate, with the yearly option advertised as a 10% saving.](https://typecast.ai/pricing/)
- [API: yes — A documented speech API with official software kits for a dozen languages, a command line tool and a hosted assistant connector is sold on its own plans.](https://typecast.ai/text-to-speech/)
- [What the free plan leaves on your audio: yes — Free downloads must carry a spoken or written credit naming Typecast and the characters used, and the free API tier forbids commercial use outright.](https://typecast.ai/pricing/api/)

**Trade-offs against Voicemaker:**
- [Cost for 10 hours a month (heavy use): partial — Ten hours a month exceeds every published allowance; only Business may buy extra credits, and the vendor publishes no price for those web top-ups.](https://typecast.ai/pricing/)
- [Emotion, pace and emphasis: partial — Emotion, pitch, intonation and dynamics are Pro features and speed starts at Plus, so the two cheapest paid plans cannot shape delivery.](https://typecast.ai/pricing/)
- [Your voice trains their models: partial — You must consent to your upload being used to train your own custom voice, and no page offers a way to decline while still cloning.](https://typecast.ai/voice-cloning/)
