FAQ

Convert Articles Into Audio — FAQ

Something not covered here? Contact us · support@vocallab.ai

Is this meant for publishing an episode or just personal listening?

It's built for a plain audio file you can listen to yourself, like on a commute, rather than a produced episode with segments and a show open.

Can I convert a whole newsletter or just a single article?

One article at a time works best; for a multi-story format with datelines and transitions, a dedicated bulletin-style page is a better fit.

Does it keep footnotes or citation numbers readable?

Numbers and footnote markers are read as part of the text, so it helps to remove citation brackets first if you don't want them spoken.

How long can the article be?

Most standard article lengths render in one pass; very long pieces may render more reliably split into two or three sections.

Commercial use?

Yes, the audio file you generate carries full commercial rights, so client work, ads, and monetized use are all covered.
