I use ElevenLabs and have produced some AI voice packs, but I'm exploring whether there's an appetite for something more flexible.
The idea: buyers submit their lines, I generate and process them through the same automated VS Code/Claude/Python pipeline and deliver clean WAV files at a set price. Aimed at people who want bespoke content but don't need or want API access themselves.
I'm aware there's already a market for this — Fiverr has plenty of sellers offering custom voice lines, and AI voice options are growing. But most of what's out there is either a human actor with no scalability, or generic AI generation with no consistent character or quality control behind it. What I'm trying to build sits in between: a named voice with a fixed identity, processed audio rather than raw generation output, and a clear brief-to-delivery process.
The voice has a calm, neutral British tone — built for narration, UI, wellness and game content to name a few.
A few things I'd genuinely value input on:
- Do you think this model would work?
- What unit size makes sense — fixed packs of 50 lines, smaller sets, or something else entirely?
- Would a script template work best for submissions, or is there a better way to collect line requests cleanly?
- What would feel like fair pricing for custom work versus a pre-made pack?
- Are there pitfalls with this model I haven't considered?
Curious what others think, especially if you've bought or sold custom voice work before.
Thanks.
