    A few makers like myself got a message this morning from OpenAI warning us about access from unsupported regions. It was cryptic and confusing. We suspect it has to do with Edge fu…

    Yeah great point, I will simplify the pricing and just say "Listen up to 10hrs of audio" instead. It is a lot more clear and avoids any misunderstandings. Just need to make the cha…

    Totally fair, and I was really excited about the iOS safari built-in version. It didn't work for the book I bought and then after using AI bases TSS, I just couldn't go back. I wou…

    Thanks so much :). The pricing is towards the bottom, should I just add a link to the footer/header to make it more visible scrollable you think?

    Just OpenAI TTS for now, tried a bunch of others and they were no where as good yet sadly. There is some promise from Myshell models on huggingface and I hope to see them keep evol…

    Yeah I tried a bunch of them and OpenAI's TTS was by far the best. Outside of that standard tech stack Next.js, Postgres, TailwindCSS. It is still early days for ML TTS, and it wil…

    Correct, it's OpenAI TTS. Costs still need to come down and they will in the future, especially with OSS models improving daily. Will share a comparison table I made in the near fu…

    Using OpenAI TTS, it costs ~$10 for ~10hrs. So at $15, margin is 50%. The costs will go down in the future, I hope, and there are promising open-source projects coming up. Their qu…

    Super cool! A lot of what you are describing I want to do in the future too. The issue I personally found with traditional TTS is the lack of emotional range and lack of thoughtful…
