Last year at the same time around, I bought Play.ht 30k. Recently App Sumo introduced LOVO and Play.ht LTD to our community.

I want to stack more Play.ht codes; nevertheless, I wanted to make sure that I'm making an informed decision; hence I decided to compare both of these tools.

I have used this sample sentence from Appsumo.com to convert to speech, "AppSumo was started by serial online entrepreneur Noah Kagan — in his mom's basement. Today, AppSumo is home to some of the best looking and smartest (not to mention most humble) techies, Austin, Texas has ever seen."

My setting for both the tools -
Default 1st voice offered by the app on these parameters:-
Gender - female
Language - US English
Voice Style - Default,
Speed - Default

Please see the results here:-
LOVO - https://voca.ro/1eaHx1i0vLZu
Play.ht - https://voca.ro/13yj9pmJQ14s

After comparing Play.ht and LOVO, here is my quick analysis.

End of the day, the most important deciding factor for me is the quality and realism of the voices (Final product).

Play.ht sounded more human-like voice. Please note the natural pause between "techies and Austin, Texas" and genuine happy smile before "most humble").

I liked Play.ht more than LOVO; hence decided to add few more codes.

I'm using Play.ht past 1 year, almost every day, and here are few things I like about Play.ht -
1. UI -purposeful in page layout
2. Ease of use - Simplified navigation
3. Speech editor (for advanced conversation style Voice-over creation with pauses, voice inflections, and tones),
4. Audiophile-grade unlimited downloads in WAV format,
5. Quality and realism of voices,
6. White-labeled audio players (With WordPress Plugin) to embed audio in my blogs,
7. An auto Podcast distribution to iTunes, Spotify, and Google Podcasts
8. constant feature update
9. responsive customer support

Features and tools like Embedded Audio Players, Podcast Hosting, Email Subscribers, and Audio Sharing have helped me grow my business using audio.

Please remember that these are my personal opinion, and you are free to think otherwise.
Thanks for your time, and I hope this little info will help you make some informed decisions.

Cheers! Welcome to the world of AI voices and happy Text to Speech conversion!
