Everything creators ask before getting started

InkToAudio turns your written newsletters, blog posts, and articles into studio-quality narrated audio you can publish as a podcast. Paste text or HTML, pick a voice, and we handle rendering, hosting, RSS, and analytics.

Three steps: (1) import your content by pasting text or HTML, or forwarding an email to a private InkToAudio inbox address; (2) pick a voice profile — choose from 180+ studio voices or clone your own; (3) click render. Under two minutes later you have an episode ready to share or publish to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and every other podcast app.

Yes. Every new account includes 25 free rendering minutes and no time limit — the trial continues until you use all 25 minutes or pick a paid plan. No credit card required to start.

No. InkToAudio handles narration, intro/outro clips, chapter markers, and publishing. No microphone, no editing software, and no prior podcasting experience needed.

Most 1,500-word newsletters render in around 90 seconds, which produces roughly a 10–12 minute episode. From account creation to a published, shareable episode is typically under 15 minutes — see the Getting started tutorial.

All of them. We support Substack, Beehiiv, ConvertKit, Mailchimp, Ghost, ActiveCampaign, Klaviyo, and any tool that sends HTML email. You can either paste HTML directly into the editor or forward your newsletter to a private inbox address and we import it for you.

Generate a private address in Inbox, then forward or send your newsletter issues to it. InkToAudio parses the HTML (plain text is also supported), strips images and attachments, and creates a draft post ready for rendering. You can restrict which sender domains are allowed.

Yes. Our AI script optimizer converts bullets into sentences, headers into spoken transitions, tables into narration, and removes or rewrites text that reads awkwardly aloud (URLs, footnotes, etc.).

More than 180 studio-quality voices across multiple languages and accents, plus the option to clone your own voice.

Yes. Upload 30–120 seconds of clean audio and InkToAudio clones your voice. Your cloned voice can narrate in 10+ languages. Full walkthrough in the Voices & voice cloning guide.

Depends on plan: Starter 2, Creator 3, Pro 7, Enterprise 20.

Yes — creators regularly report listeners assume the audio is a real recording. The voices are studio-grade neural TTS, not the robotic voices of older text-to-speech tools. Try the previews on the home page to hear for yourself.

Yes. Flip on Multi-speaker mode when creating a post. Tag lines in your script (or use the UI label buttons), and InkToAudio narrates each speaker with a different voice — turning an article into a two-host conversation.

Yes. InkToAudio auto-generates an RSS feed for your show. Copy the feed URL and submit it to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music, Overcast, Pocket Casts, Castro, Podcast Addict, Podbean, Stitcher, TuneIn, iHeartRadio, and any other app that reads RSS. Typical approval windows: Spotify within hours, Apple within 24 hours to a few days, YouTube within a day.

No. InkToAudio hosts your audio files and feed. If you already have a show on another host you can either (a) add InkToAudio as your new home or (b) redirect the existing feed to your InkToAudio feed.

Yes. You can download episode MP3s and re-upload them to any other host or distribute them however you like.

Yes. Use the chapter editor on any post. Chapter markers appear inside podcast apps that support them (Apple Podcasts, Overcast, Pocket Casts) and in the InkToAudio hosted player.

Yes. Each episode has a hosted public listen page, an embed code for your website, and a direct shareable link.

Total listens, unique listeners, average completion rate, average listen duration, period-over-period growth, a period summary, and a sortable per-post performance table. Switch windows between 7, 30, 90 days, or all time. Full details in the Analytics guide.

By account when a listener is signed into a free InkToAudio individual account; otherwise by device.

No. Anyone can listen from a shared link or subscribe via podcast app — no account required. You can also track an audience list inside InkToAudio under Subscribers.

Average blog post gets under 2 minutes of attention. Audio completion rates typically run 70–85%. Listeners consume episodes during commutes, workouts, and morning routines — time they would not spend reading. And podcasts bypass inbox spam filters entirely.

Plans scale by rendering minutes, streaming minutes, and cloned-voice count. See the pricing page for current rates. Monthly and annual billing available — annual is discounted.

Rendering pauses. No overage fees, ever. Upgrade your plan or wait until your next billing-cycle anniversary and rendering resumes automatically.

On your billing-cycle anniversary — the same date you first subscribed — not the first of the calendar month.

Yes. Manage or cancel from the Stripe billing portal linked inside your Subscription page. No long-term contracts.

Yes. Start with the Trinity Audio migration guide if you are moving from article auto-embedding, or the Murf migration guide if you are moving from studio-style voiceover production into a publishing workflow.

Newsletter writers, bloggers, journalists, long-form writers, and content teams publishing large volumes of articles.
