Description of WellSaid
WellSaid is an AI text-to-speech platform for making voiceovers. The company says its voices are made in partnership with professional voice actors, and the site lists more than 280 actors. Samples can be filtered by language, style (promotional, conversational or narration) and tone such as neutral, serious, calm or happy. The site mentions 50+ languages and accents.
An API is offered for adding voice to another product or platform, with documentation and an API Partner Program. Voice cloning is not mentioned on the home page or the pricing page, so do not assume it is available. The security section refers to data privacy and compliance and links to a Trust Center, but no certification such as SOC 2 appears in the text we read, so we record none. The footer text we read does not name a legal entity.
The pricing page lists a Free Trial at $0 with 3 downloaded minutes a month, no commercial rights and no credit card. Starter is $19 a month, or $10 a month billed yearly ($120 a year), with 20 downloaded minutes a month (240 a year on annual billing) and full commercial rights. Pro is $49 a month, or $33 billed yearly ($396), with 180 minutes a month. Business is listed only on annual billing at $160 per user per month ($1,920 a year) with 2,880 minutes a year per user. Enterprise is custom. Downloaded-minute caps are the main limit to plan around.
