What are some unique features of spoken.press?

Agentic Manuscript Analysis: Spoken performs an unprecedented novel-wide analysis to classify your story and identify every speaking character. It analyzes character interactions, descriptions, and emotional tone to recommend or custom-generate ideal voices based on their unique profile.

Automated Multi-Voice Casting: The platform can auto-assign distinct voices to your narrator and all speaking characters simultaneously. It even applies automated emotional cues like whispering or shouting based on the story's rhythm and context.

Multi-Model Orchestration: Spoken leverages several industry-leading TTS models on a single platform, including ElevenLabs for reliable, high-quality output and Hume for more emotive, nuanced soundscapes.

Author-Centric Workflow: Designed for extreme ease of use, the interface allows you to upload full manuscripts or industry-standard ePUB files. It automatically identifies chapters and removes non-narration elements, providing a seamless, "creative-friendly" path from manuscript to studio-grade audiobook.

Streaming-Compliant Exports: Every project automatically includes required technical elements, such as standardized closing credits, ensuring your exported files are ready for immediate distribution on platforms like Spotify.

Can a user use Spoken for free?

Fixed "Pay When Perfect" Pricing: Unlike traditional credit-based systems that charge for every generation, Spoken uses a fixed-rate model tied directly to word count ($20 per 5,000 words, or $10 for subscribers). You can narrate, re-narrate, and experiment endlessly for free, only paying when you are ready to download the final, perfect project.
