How to Get Natural French Text to Speech
6 French voices to preview
The voice library opens filtered to French: three male and three female voices, including a narrator, two news-style anchors, and a film-style lead. Every voice has a sample you can play before you generate.
Write it the way it should be read
The voice reads exactly what you type. Keep the accents on your letters (é, è, ç, à), spell out numbers and dates the way they should be spoken, and use punctuation where you want a pause.
Match the voice to the job
Male Narrator suits stories and audiobooks, Female Anchor and Patient Female Presenter suit lessons and announcements, and Casual Man suits relaxed social clips.
Turn the audio into a talking video
When the French audio sounds right, send it to the talking avatar tool and pair it with a photo. The voice is already in place.

What to Know Before You Generate French Speech
6 French voices
Three male and three female voices, from young adult to middle-aged. Each has a sample you can play for free.
No regional accent labels
The voices are described as French, not as France, Canadian, Belgian, or Swiss French. Play the samples to pick the delivery you want.
Reads your text as written
The tool does not translate. Paste French text and pick a French voice; English text read by a French voice will not sound natural.
Up to 2,000 characters
Each generation accepts up to 2,000 characters. Split longer scripts into sections and generate them one by one.
Priced by length
Each generation costs 1 credit per 200 characters, rounded up, so a 450-character script uses 3 credits.
Content review
Text is checked against our content policy before speech is generated, and some text may be rejected.
