Inworld AI, a cutting-edge startup in the AI and gaming sector, recently unveiled Inworld Voice, an innovative AI voice generator. After securing $50 million in funding with a valuation of $500 million last year, the company aims to revolutionize voice experiences for game developers seeking expressive, cost-effective, and high-quality voice solutions. (I’ve inquired about how the company addresses actors' concerns regarding the potential appropriation of their voices by AI technology.)
Inworld Voice boasts an impressive initial selection of 58 voices, enhanced by advanced AI models that improve latency, rhythm, intonation, and pitch variation, ensuring dynamic and realistic voice interactions.
The technology driving Inworld Voice utilizes sophisticated machine learning models, offering customization options that let users select voices and tailor settings to meet their specific project needs.
Potential applications for Inworld Voice span gaming, audiobooks, narration, voiceover, education and training, podcasts, AI assistants, chatbots, and other interactive experiences.
In terms of cost efficiency, Inworld Voice provides the first 100 requests per day free through Inworld’s TTS API. For customers using the Inworld Engine, access to the voice pipeline comes at no extra cost.
Looking ahead, Inworld continues to enhance its offerings, with development focused on voice cloning capabilities, multilingual support, and increased contextual awareness for more emotionally engaging interactions.
