Creating an audiobook with an AI voice has never been more accessible. With tools like ElevenLabs, authors can now convert their manuscript into professional-sounding narration in a matter of hours. You choose the voice, upload your text, and the system does the rest—producing audio that’s clean, consistent, and surprisingly lifelike. For many independent authors, this opens a door that would otherwise be blocked by high studio costs or the pressure to narrate it themselves.

Right now, you can publish AI-narrated audiobooks through platforms like Spotify for Authors, powered by Findaway (and soon INaudio). Spotify is one of the few major players currently accepting AI voice content, and distribution to their massive listener base is straightforward once your files meet the technical standards. You’ll need to prepare the usual components—opening and closing credits, a retail sample, and chapter files—all of which must meet specific audio levels and formatting requirements.

That’s where VoomVox comes in. We’ll help guide you through the process; we'll advise you how to prepare your raw file using software such as GarageBand or Audacity. Once it's done we can walk you through how to export the audiobook files in a format that can be finished to a professional standard using VoomVox. This will ensure they meet all volume, noise, and structural standards required by Spotify and other distributors like INaudio (formerly Findaway Voices). You don’t need to worry about mastering levels or whether your files will be rejected. We handle that.

We also provide detailed, easy-to-follow guides that walk you through each platform’s upload process, so you know exactly what to do next. Whether you’re planning to sell via Spotify, distribute widely via INaudio, or host your audiobook on your own site, we’ll make sure your audio is ready for market—and future-proofed for when Audible opens its doors to AI content.

So whether you choose human or artificial narration VoomVox can help, and you get a clear, flat rate price regardless of your preparation choice; starting from only £250 for submission-ready files with a FREE audiobook cover ready to upload.
