Hume AI Voice Generator (Better Than ElevenLabs?)
About this video
In a sponsored Hume AI tutorial, Kevin Stratvert tests Hume as a text-to-speech voice generator that he says can be used for free, with 10 free minutes per month per the transcript. In the Playground he types Kevin Cookie Company copy and generates speech; if no voice is selected Hume guesses a suitable voice from the text. He browses preset voices (e.g., vampire, troll, whisper, movie trailer, sitcom girl), selects one, and uses Enhance Text to rewrite the script to match that voice’s expected style and filler words before regenerating. Under Voice Design > Create Voice he designs a custom Willy Wonka-style narrator by entering sample text and a voice prompt, generates three samples, picks the second, names and saves it as the Kevin Cookie Company spokesperson for reuse. He also shows acting instructions (e.g., whisper like telling a secret) and downloading output as MP3 or WAV. He repeats the same voice-design prompt and preview text in ElevenLabs to compare its three samples, and notes Hume also offers Projects for multi-speaker dialogue. He presents Hume’s claim of being highly realistic and says its paid plans are about half ElevenLabs’ price — presented as his comparison in the video, not independently verified.
