FAQs

What happens if I edit my audio?
The player will always stream the latest version of the audio (once fully processed). If you are still seeing the old version, you may need to clear your cache.
Will the player slow down my website?
Our players should not slow down your website. We’ve designed BeyondWords to minimize any effect on latency. The JavaScript player is lightweight and embedded via an iFrame, which means that it only loads after all other page content has loaded. We’re also the only text-to-speech service that transcodes audio for HLS (HTTP Live Streaming), which splits audio into 15-second segments at different bit rates to ensure frictionless listening.
