Typecast generates text-to-speech audio with AI voices designed for expressive, context-aware speech. Its Studio advertises more than 700 voices, with adjustable emotion, speed, and dynamics. Voice generation and playback are unlimited on Studio plans, but downloading audio uses credits. Typecast also offers an API for content automation, app services, and conversational agents; stated streaming TTS latency is 170–210 ms. Listed SDKs and integrations include Python, JavaScript, Zapier, Google Sheets, n8n, and Make. The service is available on the web, iOS, and Android, and its mobile app supports syncing across devices. The API free plan includes 15,000 credits per month, with a concurrency limit of two; generated audio on that plan is noncommercial and requires attribution. The Studio free plan includes 3,000 lifetime download credits, trial voices, three projects, and 1 GB of media storage. Paid Studio plans include Basic at $5.00 USD per month, Plus at $19.00 USD per month, Pro at $29.00 USD per month, and Business at $69.00 USD per month. Typecast is based in Seoul, South Korea.
Who it is for
Typecast suits creators who need generated narration and teams building voice features into apps or conversational services. Its API free plan has noncommercial-use and attribution requirements, so commercial API use requires a different plan.
