This new iteration marks a notable advancement in AI voice technology, blending lifelike realism with extensive customisation features designed to cater to the complex demands of modern enterprises.
Murf Speech Gen 2 empowers users to turn their ideas and concepts into tangible realities, reinforcing Murf AI’s position as a force in the tech industry and underscoring its dedication to advancing ethical AI voiceover solutions.
"Announcing Murf Speech Gen 2 is a pivotal moment for us," said Ankur Edkie, Co-Founder and CEO of Murf AI. "This model exemplifies our commitment to innovation and our mission to empower enterprises with the most advanced AI tools available. At Murf AI, we believe that AI works best alongside humans to bridge the gap between creative vision and execution – that's why we push ourselves beyond real voice overs, we build for control and optionality. We aim to streamline and revolutionise the creative process and are proud to be setting a new standard for the industry so that creators can get the precise output they envision, the way they want it."
Murf AI's portfolio, already boasting over 120 voices capable of producing studio-quality voiceovers in more than 20 languages, has been significantly enhanced by the introduction of Murf Speech Gen 2. This feature allows professionals in sectors such as marketing, education, learning and development, and publishing to convert text into speech with a myriad of tones and expressions, bringing their visions to life.
A standout feature, "Say it My Way," enables users to record or upload their own version of a text, which the AI then replicates using the chosen AI avatar’s voice. This allows for unparalleled personalisation. The advanced word-level emphasis feature provides precise control, allowing users to highlight specific words for greater impact. The Variability option offers creators unlimited versions of their voiceovers, empowering them to select the rendition that best aligns with their vision.
Gen 2 also delivers upgraded broadcast-quality audio, ensuring voices are crystal clear and virtually indistinguishable from human speech. With enhanced pronunciation accuracy now benchmarked at over 99% for general American English, every word is delivered with impeccable clarity.
