Watch out for

Voice cloning is Enterprise-only; no downloads on the free trial

Murf is a voiceover studio built for people who make presentations, training courses, explainers and ads. You paste a script, pick one of 200+ voices in 35+ languages, and then shape every sentence: pauses, pitch, speed and word-by-word emphasis. Murf's Gen2 voices are "trained with over 70,000 hours of ethically sourced speech data", and Falcon 2 (June 2026) is its "ultra-fast" model for real-time voice apps.

Start here: the basics

Try it free: 10 minutes of voice generation, no card needed (downloads need a paid plan).
Paste your script and choose how to split it: by paragraph ("ideal for learning content, podcasts, and audiobooks"), by sentence ("best suited for video scripts or conversational content") or not at all (for ads and presentations).
Pick a voice with the Gen2 label for the most natural delivery.
Polish with pauses, speed, pitch and pronunciation, then export.

Lesson 1: write for the ear, not the eye

One idea per sentence. Murf treats each sentence as its own block, so short sentences are easier to fine-tune.
Punctuation is direction. Commas, full stops and colons already add natural pauses.
Spell out numbers, symbols and abbreviations the way they should sound.
Read it aloud once yourself. If you stumble, the voice will too.

Most people lose their audience in the first ten seconds.

Here's how to keep them. [pause 0.5s]

First, say the problem out loud. Second, promise the answer. Third, deliver it fast.

Let's try it together.

Lesson 2: Murf's controls

Pauses

Five presets from Extra Weak (0.25s) to Extra Strong (1.25s), or a custom pause with [pause Xs] from 0.1 to 5 seconds. You can also stretch blocks on the timeline.

Welcome to the course. [pause 1s] Today we cover three things.

Speed and pitch

Both run from "-50% to +50%", per block or for the whole project. Pitch changes let one voice play several characters.

Word-by-word emphasis

On Gen2 voices, "control the pace and pitch of each word": double-click a word and drag its node up or down for pitch, left or right for speed. To stress a word, raise its pitch and slow it down. Emphasis is on Business and Enterprise plans.

Pronunciation

Pick from smart suggestions, type custom IPA without the slashes, or use an alternate spelling: "Live(verb) - livv", "Live(adjective) - laiv".

Say it My Way

"Record or upload sample audio for a sentence; the voices will mimic your delivery." The fastest way to get a line exactly as you hear it in your head.

Power moves

AI Dubbing: upload a video and Murf "will create an AI-generated dub that preserves your original voice, timestamps, background music, and sound effects".
AI Translation of whole Studio projects into Murf's languages.
Integrations with Canva, Google Slides, PowerPoint, Adobe Captivate, Articulate 360 and more.
Falcon 2 API for voice agents: "~100ms time-to-first-audio".
