About

Leelo is an AI voice studio made by LEELO LTD, a company based in London, UK, that converts written scripts into finished, mixed audio. It addresses a common production problem: turning text into natural-sounding narration with multiple speakers, sound and consistent quality normally requires recording sessions, studio time and editing. Leelo replaces much of that workflow with synthetic speech.

The product works on a script-first model. Users paste a script, Leelo splits it into lines per speaker, and each speaker is assigned a voice from a library of 762 voices covering 83 languages and their accents. Lines can be directed individually for pace, emotion and emphasis, and music and sound effects sit on separate lanes before export to a single file at loudness targets suited to podcasts, audiobooks or broadcast. Around the core studio, Leelo adds voice cloning, video dubbing, transcription, noise removal, a voice changer, generated sound effects and a script-writing assistant, all billed from one shared credit balance. Everything is also available to developers through a REST API, webhooks and an MCP server.

Key Features

Multi-voice studio: Scripts are broken into lines with a voice per speaker; each line can be directed for speed, emotion, emphasis and pronunciation, then exported as one finished mix in MP3 or WAV.
Voice library: 762 voices across 83 languages and accents, from newsreader to storyteller styles, each with an auditionable sample.
Voice cloning and design: Users can clone their own voice from about a minute of clean recording (with the speaker's consent) or design a new voice from a text description, receiving three takes to choose from.
Video and audio dubbing: Upload a file or paste a link and Leelo translates and re-voices it into other languages while keeping each speaker's original voice; results open in the Studio for line-level edits.
Surrounding audio tools: Transcription with speaker labels and timestamps, background-noise clean-up, a voice changer that keeps timing while swapping the voice, and text-described sound effects.
AI script writer: A writing assistant drafts, rewrites, shortens, splits or translates scripts inside the Studio, up to 5,000 words at a time.
API, webhooks and MCP: All studio functions are exposed through a REST API, webhooks and an MCP server, so other software and AI assistants can generate audio programmatically.

Who It's For

Leelo is aimed at people producing finished audio on a regular schedule: YouTubers and video creators who need voiceovers paced to their edits, podcast producers running multi-speaker shows without a studio, and independent authors narrating audiobooks. It also fits e-learning and training teams localizing courses, marketers producing many versions of a spot, businesses building phone menus and IVR greetings, game and animation studios casting character dialogue, and publishers adding audio versions of articles. Developers can build the same functions into their own products via the API.
