How we rank
Every one of these text to speech tools is scored on the same 8 weighted criteria (scorecard v1), from the vendor's published data. 41 of the 45 listed have enough verified data to be ranked; a tool with under 60% of the weight covered is listed but not ranked. Nobody gets custom weights, including our own products.
Heaviest criteria
- Entry price · Core25%
Price per month of the cheapest paid plan, against the prices of other text to speech tools on the same billing basis (monthly-billed prices against monthly, annual-billed against annual).
- Free plan or trial · Core15%
Whether you can use the tool before paying: a free plan, or failing that a free trial, as shown on the vendor's pricing page.
- Verified features · Core15%
How many of the 5 features we track for this category the vendor's own pages verifiably show (voice cloning, commercial use on paid plans, text-to-speech api, ai dubbing / translation, team access). This counts verified features only: a tool that documents less scores lower here, and only here.
- Pricing transparency · Core10%
How much of the pricing is public: the share of plans with a published price ("contact sales" counts against), and whether there are at least 3 published tiers.
- API, integrations and export · Core10%
Whether a public API exists, how many integrations the vendor states, and whether the vendor documents a way to export your data.
