Editor

​

Overview

You can use the Editor to generate and edit audio and/or video. You can:

• Paste text directly to create audio/video (and edit as required)
• Edit text imported through our API, Magic Embed, or CMS plugins

Each article is structured into segments, typically aligned with article paragraphs. By default, all segments use the project’s language and voice, but you can adjust them individually as needed.

Left sidebar

For each article in the Editor, you can use the left-hand sidebar to configure settings relating to the voices, the script, video, background music, pronunciations, and info (metadata).

​

Voices

In the “Voices” tab, you can either select one of our premade voices or upload your own to create a custom voice clone for your articles.

1. Premade voice: Choose your preferred language and accent, then click the dropdown (⌄) to view the available voices. To preview a voice, hover over the icon next to the name and click the play button.
2. Instant voice clone: To instantly clone a voice for your article, click the + button and follow the instructions provided. You’ll need to record or upload a voice sample along with a consent statement.

For more details, see the Instant voice cloning section of our documentation.

​

Script

In the “Script” tab, you can create and manage a separate script for your article. This allows you to create different audio and/or video versions. You can write your own script manually or use a Script Template to generate one automatically using AI. Templates can define the structure, tone, and length of the generated script. To generate a script for an individual article:

1. Click “Choose template” to choose a Script Template or click “Create +” to create a new one.
2. Click “Generate script” to instantly generate a script.
3. Review and edit the generated script as needed or hit “Generate script” to get a different result.

To generate audio for your script, you need to enable the “Convert script into audio” toggle. To generate video for your script, you need to enable the “Convert script into video” toggle in the Video tab. You can change your default script settings in Content > Preferences > Scripts.

​

Video

In the “Video” tab, you can manage your article’s video settings. Choose whether to generate a video for your article and/or script and customize it using the available options. The video will be created when you generate or update the article. For more detailed information on video settings and customization, visit the Video section of our documentation.

​

Background track

In the “Background track” tab, you can enable/disable background music. This will apply to the audio and video versions of your article and script. If you want to include background music, you will need to select or upload an audio file. The track will be added at an appropriate volume when you generate or regenerate your content.

​

Pronunciations

In the “Pronunciations” tab, you can configure which custom pronunciations will be applied when generating the audio and/or video for your article. Enable “AI preprocessing” to improve text normalization (e.g., ensure numbers and sports scores are interpreted correctly) and automatic language detection. You can enable AI preprocessing across your project in Content Preferences.

​

Info

The “Info” tab lets you update your article’s settings and metadata. Audio / Video visibility Choose whether the player should be public (visible) or private (hidden). Set when visibility should take effect by selecting Once generated or Specific date. Author The article author. This data can be used to create Smart Playlists. IDs

• ID: Copy the article content ID. This is the ID that we assign to the article after it’s generated.
• Source ID: Copy or edit the article source ID. This ID is user-defined at the time of audio generation. We recommend using the article ID from your CMS as the source ID.
• Source URL: Copy or edit the article source URL. We recommend using the article URL as the source URL.

Title Automatically taken from the first segment of your article, but can be edited here if needed. Properties Add or edit custom properties for the article using JSON format. We recommend including metadata like the article’s category (e.g. { "category": "sport" }). These properties can be used to power Smart Playlists and podcast feeds. API updates This toggle allows updates made via the API to override the existing article content and regenerate the audio. If disabled, API updates will be ignored, and the current content will remain unchanged unless updated in the Editor.

​

Play ads

Use this toggle to choose whether ads should be included in the audio article.

​
