BeyondWords Overview

BeyondWords is an incredibly versatile AI Text-to-Speech publishing platform that can be used to convert text into engaging audio. It provides users with an all-in-one audio Content Management System (CMS), voice cloning capabilities, and Artificial Intelligence voices to make their publishing workflow more efficient. Founded by Patrick O’Flaherty & James MacLeod in 2017, the company started out as SpeechKit.

The platform uses advanced natural language processing (NLP) technologies and algorithms to easily analyze text and convert it into Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML). Due to this, users can convert any case study, article, blog post, guide, etc., into audio. In addition, they have a voice library where users can access hundreds of AI voices in multiple languages. The Voice Library offered by the platform includes various functionalities, like instant access to text-to-speech voices from various services, like Google WaveNet, Microsoft Azure, and other providers which have been enhanced using NLP algorithms.

Thanks to powerful features such as natural language processing and SSML conversion capabilities, BeyondWords enables you to create high-quality audio content quickly and easily without having any prior technical knowledge or experience. Along with this, their Voice Library gives you access to a wide range of AI voices to customize your audio content and find the perfect voice for it.

An Advanced Audio CMS

• Apart from being a Text-to-Speech platform, BeyondWords provides an advanced audio content management system. It enables users and teams to manage, automate, and maximize their audio strategies with ease. To do this, it follows four distinct steps - Production, Distribution, Analytics, and Monetization.
• Using its extensive API and other tools like the RSS Feed Importer, WordPress plugin, Ghost plugin, and more, the Production phase enables the automatic conversion of content. This guarantees professional-grade sound in all of your recordings.
• Distributing audio material is a breeze with the aid of 'automatic player embeds' and the many available Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and Software Development Kits (SDKs). The process of distributing audio files over many channels is substantially facilitated by this.
• BeyondWords' analytics capabilities give specific numbers on engagement with each piece of audio content, allowing for thorough monitoring after content creation and deployment. A user's Google Analytics account may be linked to these metrics, providing even more context.
• Monetization is the final phase of the BeyondWords process, and it facilitates the upload of audio commercials from sponsors or the use of VAST technology to link with programmatic ad networks, both of which are used to generate revenue from the audio files. As a result, one may make more money off of their current collection of audio recordings.
