Getting Started

Welcome to Speakaholic! Follow this guide to upload a document, pick a voice, and generate studio‑quality audio in minutes.

How to convert a document to audio
Simple steps you can follow right now. No developer knowledge required.

What you need

  • Supported file types: PDF, DOCX, TXT
  • Recommended size: ≤ 5 MB per file
  • An account with available credits

Step 1 — Prepare your document

Ensure the document contains the final text you want narrated. Remove unnecessary images and watermarks for best parsing accuracy.

Step 2 — Upload

  1. Click Upload a Document above.
  2. Select your file. We extract the text and ready it for TTS.
  3. When the upload is complete, move on to voice selection.

Step 3 — Choose a voice

Open the voice selector to try different options. You can preview and fine‑tune:

  • Speed: slower or faster delivery
  • Pitch: subtle adjustments to tone
  • Style: when available (e.g., cheerful)

Step 4 — Generate & download

Generate the final audio and download the MP3. You can also keep it in your dashboard to access later.

Best practices

  • Break large documents into sections (by chapter/heading).
  • Use clear headings and paragraphs for better narration.
  • Prefer plain text or well‑structured PDFs for accuracy.

Understanding credits

  • Credits are consumed roughly by word count.
  • Previewing voices is free; generation uses credits.
  • Buy credits any time — they don’t expire.

Troubleshooting

  • Upload failed: Try a smaller file or export as a clean PDF.
  • Audio sounds clipped: Pick another voice or slow the speed slightly.
  • Long documents: Split into sections; very long inputs work best with batch processing.
  • Still stuck? Visit Contact and we’ll help.
