The audio quality is impressive. How do you do it?

I'd suggest removing "FREE for 14 days" from your post title. All Show HNs are supposed to be free for people to play around with. Saying "FREE" makes it look less credible.

Thank you for a kind suggestion as I'm fairly new to this community. I edited the title as recommended.

As for your question. We utilize voice models made by cloud providers (Google, Amazon) and apply custom NLP, to achieve better speech fluency and to handle edge cases such as pauses in text, numbers etc.

How does your pricing compare to the cloud providers?

We and cloud providers charge different things as they charge for the number of processed minutes and we charge for articles.

The thing is, with cloud providers you need to use API and we built the whole UI and automated the process so that it's just more user-friendly.

But if you know how to convert articles just using cloud providers and not BlogAudio, then most likely you'll pay less.
