New here? This is how hiring a voice works.

Everything on your dashboard, explained in plain words. If you've never cast a voice over before, start with the three cards below.

Step one

Three ways to find a voice

All three end with real recordings from real actors. The difference is how much of the choosing you want to do yourself.

Not sure exactly what you want? Listen your way through the roster until something clicks.

  • Over 5,000 professional voice actors
  • More than 100 languages and dialects

Drill into the roster on the details that matter to your script.

  • Find actors who are in the studio right now
  • Search by keyword
  • Find someone who can come to your studio

For projects where any good professional will do. You still choose the important things.

  • Pick gender, age range and language
  • Choose from five actors we put forward
  • Every one of them is a working professional

Step two

Auditions, castings and paid jobs

Three words that get mixed up constantly. Here is the difference, and what each one costs you.

01

Casting notice

The quick way to hear a lot of options. Post your script and any voice actor who fits the brief records a short sample of it. You can then share the submissions, all of them or just your shortlist, with colleagues and clients.

02

Private audition

You hand pick the actors you want to hear from, rather than opening it up. Each one records a free sample of up to 30 seconds of your script, so you can tell whether they're right before anyone is booked.

03

Paid job

You've chosen your voice and booked them. Your payment sits with us while you work with the actor to get the recording right, and it’s released once you're happy. Finished jobs stay in your account so you can download the audio again later.

Paid

Your dashboard

What lives where

Once you're logged in, everything sits under these sections.

Paid projects

Every job where you've hired a voice actor and paid a deposit. Active jobs and finished ones sit side by side, and you can go back into a completed job any time to download the audio again.

Castings and auditions

Your open casting notices and private auditions. When one closes it moves to the Completed tab in the same place, so nothing disappears.

My preferred voices

Anyone you saved while browsing. From this list you can audition the whole group at once, or approach individual actors privately.

Payment receipts

Every payment you've made, kept together in one place. We're still building this section out, with keyword search and sorting by year on the way.

Your account

Settings, passwords and payment

Password

Locked out or forgotten it? Reset it here. If the account locks itself after too many wrong tries, contact support and we'll unlock it. That lock is deliberate. It's what keeps your account yours.

My info

Your email, a tax or VAT number, your company logo, timezone, and the currency your invoices come in. You can add a second email address so invoices and notifications go to your accounts team as well.

Stored card

Save a card to make booking quicker. We never see or hold your card number, and every transaction is processed securely by the payment provider.

Timezone and deadlines

Set your timezone once and every deadline on the site shows in your local time, adjusted for daylight saving. Worth doing before you post anything urgent.

If something's not right

When the recording isn't what you wanted

The voice isn't right

If the first recording isn't right for the job, the satisfaction guarantee lets you pick another voice from the roster to record the same script. Conditions apply, so it's worth a read before you book. Read the satisfaction guarantee

The read isn't right

If the actor made a mistake or missed your direction, re-records are free. If you change the script after it has been recorded, that counts as a new recording.
