Comments and Reviews
The only product of its kind I'm aware of with this featureset, now that PodCastle.ai no longer supports its browser extension.
Works ok, but pricing is ridiculous. Why is it that companies like this think that everyone who's got a youtube channel or podcast is a millionaire? GET REAL! Please people, check out http://fromtexttospeech.com/, 100% free and it works pretty well.
Really good voices and platform - quite steep pricing.
Incredible quality, horrific pricing! The AI ("Plus") voices are really, really good. PDF upload is perfect with header and footer skipping too. But man, the prices hurt. Will look elsewhere.
Very disingenuous if you ask me. The demos are quite remarkable to be fair. But read the fine print! Nothing that they demo on their website is available in the product they sell. The application they do sell is pretty awful. There are much better options out there.
Pricing is fair, not great. But few alternatives exist with the premium voice options.
