Murf AI Launches Speech Gen 2

Murf A, a text-to-speech platform provider, has launched Murf Speech Gen 2, its speech model that merges human-like realism with advanced customization capabilities.

"Announcing Murf Speech Gen 2 is a pivotal moment for us," said Ankur Edkie, co-founder and CEO of Murf AI, in a statement. "This model exemplifies our commitment to innovation and our mission to empower enterprises with the most advanced AI tools available. At Murf AI, we believe that AI works best alongside humans to bridge the gap between creative vision and execution; that's why we push ourselves beyond real voice overs, we build for control and optionality. We aim to streamline and revolutionize the creative process and are proud to be setting a new standard for the industry so that creators can get the precise output they envision, the way they want it."

Murf Speech Gen 2 enhances Murf AI's portfolio of more than 120 voices that can create studio-quality voice overs in more than 20 languages. The "Say It My Way" feature lets users record or upload their own pronunciations, which AI replicates in the voice of the chosen AI avatar. Advanced word-level emphasis provides fine-grained control, enabling users to highlight specific words for added impact. With Variability, creators get unlimited voice over versions of their lines.

In addition to complete customization control, Gen 2 boasts upgraded broadcast-quality audio, ensuring voices sound crystal clear and indistinguishable from human speech. Enhanced pronunciation accuracy has reportedly been benchmarked at greater than 99 percent for general American English.
