Murf AI has introduced its latest innovation, Murf Speech Gen 2, a state-of-the-art text-to-speech model designed to produce highly customizable and emotive audio outputs. This new model aims to deliver broadcast-quality audio that is nearly indistinguishable from human speech, catering to a wide range of applications, including marketing materials and training content.
Murf Speech Gen 2 boasts a pronunciation accuracy of 98.8% for general American English and supports audio content creation in over 20 languages. Ankur Edkie, co-founder and CEO of Murf AI, highlighted the significance of this launch: "Announcing Murf Speech Gen 2 is a pivotal moment for us. This model exemplifies our commitment to innovation and our mission to empower enterprises with the most advanced AI tools available."
The platform's capabilities extend to generating over 120 voice clones, thanks to Murf's advanced AI system. One standout feature, "Say it My Way," allows users to upload recordings of their voice, enabling the AI to create a clone that mimics their speech patterns exactly. Additionally, users can adjust pronunciations and emphasize specific details in the audio outputs, enhancing the level of customization.
Murf AI trained the model using more than 70,000 hours of speech data from diverse speakers, allowing it to generate audio across the entire human audible range. The model includes a "deep linguistic modeling layer," which reproduces subtle nuances of accents in multiple languages.
Complementing the new text-to-speech model, Murf AI also launched Murf Dub, a tool designed to simplify the creation of multilingual audio content. Murf Dub supports seven languages: English, Spanish, Italian, German, French, Hindi, and Portuguese, enabling easy translation and dubbing of video content for various markets.
“At Murf AI, we believe that AI works best alongside humans to bridge the gap between creative vision and execution," Edkie stated. "That's why we push ourselves beyond real voiceovers; we build for control and optionality. We aim to streamline and revolutionize the creative process and are proud to be setting a new standard for the industry so that creators can get the precise output they envision, the way they want it."
Murf AI enters a competitive field, facing rivals such as ElevenLabs, Lovo, and Speechify, yet it distinguishes itself with its high level of customization and advanced linguistic modeling. With the launch of Murf Speech Gen 2 and Murf Dub, the company continues to set new benchmarks in the voice generation and dubbing landscape.
