Voice Design

Generate a custom voice from a text description in the Fish Audio web app

Voice Design turns a written description into an AI voice. You write a prompt, generate a couple of samples, pick your favorite, then add a few details and save. It is the fastest way to make an original voice — best for characters rather than cloning a real person.

To clone a real, verified voice at studio quality instead, see Professional Voice Clone.

Before you begin

• Sign in at fish.audio/app.
• Credits. Each generation costs credits (or is free during a promotion — the cost is shown next to the Generate Samples button).

Open Voice Design

Go to fish.audio/app/create-voice and, under Pick a method, choose Voice Design.

Create the voice

1. Describe the voice

   Under Describe the voice you want, type one or two specific sentences — for example, “A warm, slightly raspy middle-aged narrator with a soft American accent. Calm, deliberate pace, great for late-night audiobooks.” Your description must be between 20 and 1000 characters.

   To start faster, click a starter prompt such as Warm late-night radio host, Documentary narrator, or Children’s storyteller. To control exactly what the samples say, click Set preview text and enter a short line (5–150 characters); otherwise Fish Audio writes a sample for you.

   Check the cost note (for example, 2000 credits per generation, or Free for a limited time during a promotion), then click Generate Samples.

2. Generate and pick a sample

   When generation finishes, the Pick a voice section shows two samples. Click play on a card to listen, and click the waveform to jump to a spot. Not happy with either? Click Re-generate Samples for a new pair.

   Click Select on the sample you want — it changes to Selected — then click Continue.

3. Add details and save

   On the Voice Details screen, a preview card updates as you fill in the form:

   • Voice Name (required).
   • Cover, Description, Use Cases, and Voice Style (optional — some are pre-filled from the sample).
   • Gender (Female, Male, or Neutral) and Age (Young, Middle-Aged, or Elderly).
   • Type — visibility: Public (shown in discovery), Unlisted (shareable by link), or Private (only you). On the free tier, Unlisted and Private are locked with an upgrade hint.

   Tick the confirmation box (“I confirm this voice does not impersonate a real, identifiable person and complies with Fish Audio’s usage policy.”), then click Create Voice. Your voice is saved and you land on My Voices.
