Step 1: Create a project
Create a project to store and manage your content, then configure these settings:| Setting | Description | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Automatic audio publishing | Automatically display the player as soon as audio is generated | Settings → General |
| Automatic video publishing | Automatically display the player as soon as video is generated | Settings → General |
| Script template | Automatically convert articles into scripts using a selected template | Content → Preferences → Scripts |
| Convert scripts into audio | Automatically convert scripts into audio | Content → Preferences → Scripts |
| Convert articles into videos | Automatically convert articles into video (requires a style template) | Content → Preferences → Videos |
| Convert scripts into videos | Automatically convert scripts into video | Content → Preferences → Videos |
Articles are always converted into audio.
Step 2: Choose voices
Choosing the right AI voices is key to creating audio and video that reflects your brand and resonates with your audience. There are three main options:- Premade voices: Choose a ready-made voice from the ElevenLabs library
- Voice generation: Generate a voice from a custom text prompt
- Voice cloning: Clone an existing voice—use instant voice cloning for speed, or professional voice cloning for the highest quality
Step 3: Integrate your publishing platform
Integrations let BeyondWords automatically ingest your published articles, convert them into your chosen formats, and embed the player into your pages.- Magic Embed: The fastest way to get started—add a JavaScript snippet to automatically ingest articles and install the player
- RSS Feed Importer: Import content from an RSS feed to automatically ingest newly published articles as they appear
- API: Best for custom integrations—send content directly from your CMS or backend and manage updates programmatically
- WordPress plugin: Automatically generate and embed audio and video versions of your posts
- Ghost plugin: Automatically generate and embed audio and video versions of your posts
Step 4: Install and customize the player
The Magic Embed, WordPress, and Ghost integrations include web player installation. If you’re using the RSS Feed Importer or API, or looking to add the player elsewhere, you need to install the player separately using one of these methods:- JavaScript SDK: Use the embed script, NPM package, or JavaScript player SDK to add the player to your website
- iOS SDK: Integrate the BeyondWords player into your iOS app
- Android SDK: Integrate the BeyondWords Player into your Android app
Step 5: Create and iterate
You’re now ready to start creating audio and video. The next step is to explore more advanced features, including:- Voice customization: Refine your output using voice models, voice settings, pronunciation rules, AI preprocessing, and pauses
- Playlists and podcast feeds: Create curated experiences to reach more listeners and increase session length
- Analytics: Track performance with the analytics dashboard or analytics integrations
- Ads: Monetize your content with direct or programmatic advertising
- Access tiers: Serve differentiated player experiences to different audience segments
