Description
AI Text-to-Speech Voiceover, Voice Changer & SFX Plugin for Adobe Premiere Pro & After Effects

AI Text-to-Speech Voiceovers, SFX & Voice Changing. Without Leaving Your Timeline

Type a script, pick a voice, and it lands on your timeline. Run it free and offline on your own machine or bring your own ElevenLabs key for premium quality. No browser tabs, no manual imports, no monthly subscription.

You need a voiceover. So you stop editing, open a browser, log into your AI voice tool, watch your credits tick down, type your script, generate, download the .mp3, drag it into your bin, drop it on the timeline, and line it up.

Then the client wants a different voice on a line you already cut. So you start the entire loop over again — and pay for it again.

There's a better way to do this and it never leaves your timeline.

AI Voiceover, Voice Changing & SFX in One Panel

VoiceLab generates speech, swaps voices, and creates sound effects — and drops every result straight onto your timeline or into your project bin. No uploads. No round-trips.

Three tools, one panel:

Generate Type a script, pick a voice, and place the voiceover on your timeline.
Voice Change Select any audio clip and swap it into a completely different voice.
SFX Describe a sound effect in words and generate it on the spot.

No tabs. No downloads. No re-importing. The whole loop happens inside Premiere Pro and After Effects.

Generate Voiceovers in 9 Languages & Accents

Localize a cut, reach a new audience, or match a brand voice — without hiring nine different voice actors.

Why Editors Trust VoiceLab

Stays in your editor
No website round-trips, no downloads folder, no re-linking. Generate and the audio is on your timeline — your edit never breaks rhythm.

Local option keeps work private
Kokoro voices run entirely on your machine. Nothing is uploaded — safe for NDA work, embargoed campaigns, and offline edit bays.
🎛️
Two engines, one panel
Reach for premium ElevenLabs quality when it matters, or free local voices for drafts and scratch tracks. Switch with a dropdown.
🔁
Change voices on existing clips
Not just new generations. Select audio already cut into your edit and swap it into a different voice — the clip is replaced in place.
💸
Own it once, and the output is yours
VoiceLab is a one-time purchase. ElevenLabs usage is billed by ElevenLabs directly to your own account — no markup, no per-word reseller fees. Local Kokoro voices are always free, and their output is commercially usable with no forced attribution.

VoiceLab is different.

One-time
Buy once. Use it forever.

Bring your own ElevenLabs key — billed by ElevenLabs, no markup.
Or use local Kokoro voices free, forever.

🛡️ 30-Day Money-Back Guarantee

We're confident because editors who try it stop leaving their timeline to make voiceovers.

Frequently asked questions

Do the free local voices sound robotic?
No. VoiceLab's local engine uses Kokoro, a modern open-weight text-to-speech model that ranks near the top of public TTS quality leaderboards — “free” no longer means “robotic.” Use the local voices for most of your work, then switch to ElevenLabs for hero lines or premium client deliverables when you want the extra polish. Because both engines live in the same panel, you can compare them on the same script in seconds.
Can I use the voiceovers commercially?
Yes. The output from the free local Kokoro engine is commercially usable, with no forced attribution — so you can monetize videos, run client work, and publish to any platform. ElevenLabs voices follow ElevenLabs' own commercial terms under your account. VoiceLab itself is a one-time purchase you own outright.
Do I need an ElevenLabs account?
Only for ElevenLabs voices, SFX, and Voice Change — you bring your own API key, and the panel walks you through getting one. For Kokoro local voices, no account or key is needed at all. That means you can start generating voiceovers the moment VoiceLab is installed, without signing up for anything.
Does it run locally, and is my script uploaded anywhere?
Kokoro voices run 100% locally and offline — your text and audio never leave your machine, which makes VoiceLab safe for NDA and confidential client work. ElevenLabs features call the ElevenLabs API with your own key. The license itself needs an internet connection to activate the first time.
Which languages does VoiceLab support?
VoiceLab generates voiceovers in nine languages and accents: American English, British English, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Spanish, French, Hindi, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese — all from the same panel, without hiring separate voice talent for each localization.
Will it slow my machine down?
The local engine is built to run on normal editing machines — you don't need a high-end GPU to generate voiceovers. If you'd rather offload the work, switch to the ElevenLabs cloud engine, which does the processing on ElevenLabs' servers using your key.
Will using it cost extra?
VoiceLab itself is a one-time purchase. ElevenLabs usage is billed by ElevenLabs directly to your own account — we add no markup and take no cut. Local Kokoro voices are completely free to use, with no credits and no per-word charges.
