What is Seedaud?
Seedaud (Seed Audio AI) is a browser-based AI text-to-speech and voice generation workspace that turns written scripts into natural-sounding voice audio.
It focuses on helping creators, marketers, educators, podcasters, and production teams generate review-ready voiceovers, narration, podcast segments, audiobooks, ads, and character lines directly from text without needing a recording studio.
From a single interface, users paste scripts, choose from a curated voice library, adjust pacing and emotion, and generate audio they can preview, download as MP3, share via links, and reuse across projects.
The platform also offers advanced workflows like voice cloning, reusable voice profiles, and long-form narration with stable delivery, making it suitable for brands, studios, and teams that require consistent voice direction across languages and campaigns.
Pricing is credit-based with subscription plans and one-time credit packs, aligning usage with generated audio duration while providing clear upgrade paths for higher-volume creators and studios.

Pricing model: Freemium
Seedaud uses a credit-based pricing model where audio generation consumes credits according to the duration and workflow type. Text-to-speech and standard voice design use SeedSpeech TTS v2 at approximately 100 credits per minute, while voice cloning and generation based on cloned voices use Seed Audio 1.0 at about 700 credits per minute. There are three main annual subscription tiers—Creator, Pro, and Studio—each providing a monthly credit allowance valid for 30 days. The Creator plan targets content creators at $99 per year (discounted from $119) and includes 5,000 monthly credits, roughly 50 minutes of text-to-speech or 7 minutes of voice cloning. It offers commercial voiceover workflows where permitted, history and share links, expressive voice presets, MP3 downloads, and standard email support. The Pro plan is geared toward high-volume professionals at $249 per year (discounted from $299) with 18,000 monthly credits, about 180 minutes of text-to-speech or 25 minutes of voice cloning.

Frequently asked questions about Seedaud
What is Seedaud and what can I create with it?
Seedaud (Seed Audio AI) is a browser-based voice workspace that turns text scripts into natural AI voice audio. You can generate voiceovers, narration drafts, podcast segments, audiobook drafts, and character lines from a single text-to-speech interface. The live workspace focuses on script input, voice selection, delivery controls, MP3 export, sharing links, and account history so you can draft, review, and reuse audio without a traditional recording studio.
How does the typical workflow from script to audio work?
The workflow is structured into four main steps. First, you paste or type your script into the editor, such as narration, an ad read, a podcast segment, or character dialogue. Second, you choose a suitable voice from the library, browsing by language, gender, and use case and previewing options before applying one. Third, you shape the delivery by adjusting speed, adding emotion tags, and setting the overall tone, whether calm narration, energetic promotion, or dramatic storytelling. Finally, you generate the audio, preview it, download the MP3 file, or share a link, with the option to save settings and results to history for future iterations.
Which voices and languages are available in Seedaud?
Seedaud offers a curated voice library designed for different workflows such as narration, podcasts, education, advertising, and gaming. Example voices include Grace and Sophia for English narration, Alex and Mia for English podcast reads, Ethan and Olivia for English advertising and education, Wenxuan and Chengan for Chinese narration, Mio for Japanese narration, Antoine for French narration, Felix for German narration, and Rex for dramatic English gaming content. Additional voice library controls and voices are planned as the product expands, giving users more flexibility to match voices to specific projects and audiences.
How is pricing structured and how are credits used?
Pricing is based on credits that are consumed when generating audio, with the rate determined by workflow type and duration. Text-to-speech and standard voice design run on SeedSpeech TTS v2 at about 100 credits per minute, while workflows using reference audio for voice cloning or designs based on cloned voices use Seed Audio 1.0 at around 700 credits per minute. Subscription plans such as Creator, Pro, and Studio provide monthly credit allowances that reset every 30 days, and one-time credit packs are available for non-recurring usage. Failed generations are not charged, and the platform offers clear tables showing credit rates across workflows so teams can estimate how many minutes their plan supports.
What are the differences between the Creator, Pro, and Studio plans?
The Creator plan is aimed at individual content creators and provides 5,000 monthly credits, commercial voiceover workflows where permitted, expressive voice presets, MP3 downloads, and standard email support. The Pro plan targets professionals who need more volume, offering 18,000 monthly credits, priority generation queues, long-form narration, podcast and audiobook draft workflows, reusable delivery settings, higher script limits, advanced pacing controls, and priority support. The Studio plan focuses on studios and teams with 50,000 monthly credits, team-oriented production, batch narration workflows, shared audio history, more concurrent generation capacity, advanced export workflows, reusable project presets, team commercial workflows where rights allow, and production safety controls, making it suitable for collaborative, high-volume environments.
How does Seedaud compare to traditional voice recording?
Traditional recording involves booking studios, hiring talent, coordinating engineers, and managing multiple sessions, which can be slow, costly, and hard to revise. By contrast, Seedaud lets teams paste text, choose a voice, and generate drafts quickly from the browser, reducing setup overhead. Iterations become easier because users can adjust delivery settings and regenerate audio instead of rebooking talent for every script change. The platform also helps with multilingual content by enabling teams to prototype localized audio from a single workspace and maintain consistency through reusable voice profiles and settings.
What are the rules and limitations around voice cloning?
Voice cloning in Seedaud is permission-aware and must only be used with audio you own or have clear authorization to use. The platform explicitly prohibits uploading voices of celebrities, public figures, private individuals, or third parties without permission, and it warns against generating deceptive impersonation content. Commercial use of cloned or referenced voices is subject to your plan, Seedaud's Terms, and applicable law, and users are expected to follow any disclosure requirements on distribution platforms. There are production safety controls and guidelines designed to help prevent unlawful, abusive, fraudulent, or harmful content.
Can I export and reuse the audio generated by Seedaud?
Yes, generated audio can be exported as MP3 files for review, editing, and use in your own production workflows, provided your plan and rights allow it. After generating audio, you can preview it inside the workspace, download the file, or share an access link with collaborators or reviewers. The system keeps a history of your generated audio and delivery settings so you can revisit drafts, refine them, and maintain consistency across campaigns, episodes, or lessons.
Who is Seedaud intended for and what workflows does it support?
Seedaud is designed for creators, marketers, educators, podcasters, audiobook teams, agencies, and documentation or support teams who need fast, repeatable audio generation from text. Example workflows include video marketing voiceovers for YouTube and TikTok, course narration for education teams, podcast intros and host reads, audiobook chapter drafts, agency creative review for ads and product demos, and documentation audio for help centers and internal content. Each workflow uses the same core steps—script input, voice selection, delivery shaping, and generation—so teams can adopt a unified process across different types of content.
How can I get help or report issues with Seedaud?
Support options vary by plan but include standard and priority email support channels. Users can contact support via the published address for questions about cancellations, billing, or plan changes, and to report unauthorized voice use, voice cloning violations, or content safety concerns. The FAQ emphasizes responsible usage and encourages users to reach out if they detect misuse or need guidance on compliant commercial use, ensuring that voice generation stays aligned with platform policies and legal requirements.
