“In the biggest languages, the voices sound nearly human.”
Review on Capterra , 1 December 2022
“…an impressive natural-like array of voices and great customer support.”
Review on Capterra , 27 September 2022
Use the accent your listeners hear daily: Nigerian English for staff training in Lagos, Australian English for a public notice in Sydney. For a worldwide audience, American English is the accent most people know from films and software.
Spelling is only one difference. A date in figures means a different day in the US and the UK, so write it out, as in "the third of March". Units and nouns change too: miles or kilometres, a truck or a lorry.
Write the way people talk; contractions such as you'll and it's keep a tutorial relaxed. If a product name or acronym sounds off in a preview, fix it in the pronunciation dictionary, which comes with every plan.

Listening practice for learners

Software demos and help videos
Product teams narrate feature tours, then regenerate only the sentence about a renamed button.

Preview the line first. If a number, date or abbreviation comes out wrong, write it the way it should be spoken, or add it to the pronunciation dictionary, which is on every plan. One entry fixes that word across the whole project.
Not really: what sounds neutral depends on the listener. General American and Received Pronunciation, a standard southern British accent, are heard most in international film and news, so many viewers find them easy to follow. A single-country audience usually prefers its own accent.
Match it to whoever reads the script, subtitles or on-screen text: color for American readers, colour for British, Australian or Indian ones. A few words differ in sound too, such as aluminum and aluminium, so use the form that fits the accent and preview it.
