The problem it solves

Producing a multi-speaker podcast usually means booking voice talent or spending hours recording and editing each part yourself. Turning a written script into a finished, natural-sounding episode is slow and often out of reach for a small team.

Who it fits

Content creators, educators, or businesses producing podcast-style content without a studio.

How it works

  1. A dialogue script is written in a spreadsheet with speaker and voice details
  2. The script is converted into the format needed for voice generation
  3. AI generates expressive, natural-sounding multi-voice audio
  4. The finished audio file is uploaded to Google Drive with a timestamped name
What you get

Scripts turned into finished multi-voice audio

You get a finished, natural-sounding multi-voice audio file generated straight from your script and saved to Drive automatically.

What you get

A finished multi-speaker podcast audio file saved to Google Drive.

What you need

An ElevenLabs account, a Google Sheets account, and a Google Drive account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
