Voice & audio
Narrate your book: make an audiobook
3 min read
A finished book can become a finished audiobook without leaving the project. Narration turns your chapters into spoken audio, chapter by chapter, in a voice you choose.
What you need
Narration is a Pro feature, and it runs on your own ElevenLabs key, connected in Account. There is no platform key here, and MakeVox adds no meter of its own: the narration charges flow straight to your ElevenLabs account, so your only limit is your ElevenLabs plan.
Narrate a chapter
Open your book to the Read view, pick a voice, and generate narration for a chapter at a time. Each chapter streams through and finishes as its own downloadable MP3, so you can build the audiobook out section by section.
Pick a voice
The voice picker draws from the same premium voices you would cast for a Table Read or a Listen-Back, so if you have already found the voice that fits your book, narration is ready to use it.
Tip. Narrate one chapter first and listen back before you commit to the whole book. A voice that reads well on a paragraph does not always hold up for a whole book.

Table Read: hear your scene performed
Give every character their own voice and let MakeVox perform the scene, like a cast read-through. Dialogue that no real person would say jumps right out.
Listen-Back: hear what your eyes skip
Have MakeVox read your draft aloud. Your ears catch the clunky lines, repeated words, and awkward rhythm your eyes glide right past.
Export your story
When you are ready to share, export your story to EPUB, DOCX, or PDF. Your writing is yours to take anywhere.
