Try it free

No sign-up needed

Start from a sample script:

240 / 500 characters

Free clips are up to 500 characters, with no sign-up and no watermark. Longer scripts, voice cloning and more voices are on the paid plans.

How it works

  1. Write your script as short, complete sentences, then paste it into the box. Free clips are up to 500 characters.
  2. Christopher is preselected. Also try the other news-style voices: Aria, Eric, Guy, Michelle, Roger and Steffan.
  3. Press generate, listen, and download the MP3. Add music or a sound bed in your video or audio editor.

Which voices sound like a news reporter?

Microsoft tags seven of the English (US) voices in this box for news reading: Christopher, Eric, Guy, Roger and Steffan (male) and Aria and Michelle (female). Christopher has the most formal, authoritative tone, which is why he is preselected.

For a British or Indian newsreader, switch the language to English (UK) or English (India).

How to write a script that sounds like the news

  • Lead with the most important fact, then add who, where and when.
  • Keep sentences short. One fact per sentence is easier to follow by ear.
  • Write numbers the way they are spoken, such as "sixty eight degrees" or "June the twelfth".
  • Use full stops for the pauses between stories, and play it back to check the pace.

Where a news reporter voice works well

  • News recaps on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram.
  • School, campus and company news segments.
  • Podcasts with a headline round-up at the start.
  • Sketches, games and student projects that need a newsroom feel.

What this tool does and does not do

  • It reads your script in a clear, news-style AI voice and gives you an MP3.
  • It does not add a news jingle, music bed or studio effects, and it has no speed, pitch or "newscast style" switch.
  • It does not copy the voice of any real anchor or reporter. Do not use it to make fake news clips or to pass AI audio off as a real broadcast.

Frequently asked questions

Is the news reporter voice generator free?

Yes. The box is free with no sign-up and no watermark, up to 500 characters per clip. Longer scripts, voice cloning and more voices are on the paid plans.

Can I make a female newscaster voice?

Yes. Choose Aria or Michelle in the voice list. Both are tagged for news reading.

Can it sound like a famous news anchor?

No. We do not imitate real people. The voices are standard AI voices with a news-reading style.

How long can my news script be?

Up to 500 characters per free clip, about 30 seconds of speech. For a longer bulletin, generate it story by story and join the clips in an editor.

Should I say the audio is AI-generated?

It is a good idea, especially for anything that looks like real news. Many platforms also require a label for AI-generated content, so check their rules.

Need more than a short clip?

The free box above is capped at 500 characters per clip. If you need longer scripts (up to 5,000 characters per generation), voice cloning or higher-quality voices, take a look at the plans. Nothing here is required to use the free tool.
