Typecast's thing is emotion: 600+ voices, many built with real voice actors, that you can steer by mood, speed and intonation, plus voice cloning from the $5 plan. Generating is unlimited and you only spend credits when you download. The catch is the size of those allowances: an hour of finished audio a month needs Pro, at $312 a year. - **Value for money: C.** An hour of downloads a month needs Pro: $312 billed yearly ($29 monthly) for 75,000 credits, about 90 minutes. Plus, at $204 a year, stops at about 50 minutes. That's near the top of what this category charges, softened by unlimited generation. - **Free plan and trial: C.** Generating and playing is unlimited, which is handy for picking voices. But downloads come from 3,000 lifetime credits, about 5 minutes, with attribution and no commercial license. Not enough for anything you publish. - **Features: B.** 600+ voices with Smart Emotion, instant cloning from Basic and professional cloning from Plus, a video editor up to 4K, talking avatars, and an API with SDKs in six languages. Nothing in the listing shows a gap in the voice work. - **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. Typing a line and picking a voice is easy; getting the emotion, pace and intonation right takes some fiddling, and those controls are spread across plans. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web, iPhone and Android, plus an API with SDKs. No desktop app and no integrations listed, so a B is the top. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Typecast's own pages on 18 October 2026.

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. It costs $60 a year. - You could not: A voice model, which you can rent by the minute but not make. - You could not: A voice model trained on your recordings. - You could not: A video editor. - You could not: A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page. - You could not: An API that other software can build on. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. **Tags:** Text to speech, Voice cloning, Video editing, Public API ## Alternatives - [ElevenLabs](https://toolgpa.com/tools/elevenlabs): AI voice platform for speech, voice cloning, dubbing and voice agents.
