Turn text into speech with AI voiceover

Fliki's Script-to-Audio workflow converts written content into a polished voiceover using lifelike AI voices. Write or paste your script, pick a voice, and generate. Everything happens on a single-page builder, and you can fine-tune every line afterward in the editor.

Step 1 - Open the Script to audio workflow

  • Open the Fliki homepage at app.fliki.ai.

  • Switch the top toggle to Voiceover.

  • Under Voiceover workflows, click Script to audio ("Transform your scripts into engaging voiceover"). You can also type or paste directly into the "Enter your voiceover idea, script, or blog link" box, or start from Blog to audio or Empty.

Step 2 - Add your script

The builder is a single page. Your script sits on the left, and the rail on the right ("Your voiceover") summarizes your voice and extras. Tap any row to change just that part.

  • Write or paste your text into the Script box.

  • Use tags to guide the AI. For example, [Scene 1] and [Scene 2] split your content into sections, and inline tags like [short pause] control delivery.

  • Use Edit with AI to rewrite, shorten, or change the tone of your script.

  • Leave Create scenes set to Auto to let Fliki automatically split your script into scenes. Alternatively, choose Line breaks to split the script at each new line, or Sentences to split it after each sentence.

Step 3 - Choose your voice

Open the Voice panel (or the Voiceover row in the rail), then click Browse voices to open the Voice selection dialog:

  • Filter by Language, Dialect, and Gender.

  • Switch between voice sets: Multilingual, Ultra, Standard, and Cloned & Favorites. Fliki offers a large library of voices across 80+ languages and 100+ dialects.

  • Search by descriptor (for example, "calm," "deep," "podcast").

  • Click the speaker icon to preview a voice, then click Select voice.

Tip: You can also clone your own voice and use it from the Cloned & Favorites tab.

Step 4 - Set extras

Open Extras & advanced to enable optional touches:

  • Generate sound effects - Adds contextual sound effects.

  • Add pauses between scenes - Inserts natural pauses between sections.

Step 5 - Generate your voiceover

Click Generate voiceover. It usually takes under 2 minutes, and you can fine-tune every line afterward. Fliki works through each stage: Preparing, Analyzing the script, Building the scenes, Adding voice & music, and Finalizing. You can keep the tab open while it works.

Step 6 - Edit and add background music

When generation completes, your voiceover opens in the editor:

  • The left panel lists each line of script, and the bottom player lets you play back the full audio and scrub the timeline.

  • Open the Layers panel to manage the Background music layer under the common scene. Use Replace to swap the track, and adjust its volume from the customization panel.

  • Use the sidebar to fine-tune the Script, Audio, and other layers, or refine wording with Copilot.

Step 7 - Preview and download

  • Play back your voiceover to check the result.

  • Click Download, choose your format (mp3 or wav), then Start export to save your audio.

Tip: Use the pronunciation map to correct how names and acronyms are read.

With Fliki's Script-to-Audio workflow, turning text into professional voiceover has never been easier.

FAQs

Text-to-speech (TTS) technology converts written text into spoken words. With TTS, users input text, and AI algorithms generate human-like speech based on that text.

A diverse range of users across various industries and applications utilize TTS technology. Individuals with visual impairments rely on TTS to access written content, while content creators use it to produce audio versions of their materials. Additionally, businesses employ TTS for customer service, interactive voice response systems, and e-learning platforms, among other purposes.

While some basic TTS services are free, advanced AI-powered TTS features like voice cloning require a subscription.

The legality of using AI voices depends on factors such as the TTS provider's terms of service and the intended use of the generated audio.
