Our verdict on Tontaube

Tontaube combines text-to-speech generation with an audiobook-focused application for creators who want to turn documents into narrated audio. It accepts text input and converts PDF, EPUB, TXT, and DOCX files, while also providing AI speakers, voice cloning from an audio sample, audio downloads, streaming, and a public-domain audiobook library. Developers can generate speech through the REST API or Python SDK. The product is available on web, iOS, Android, and through its API, with commercial use supported.

Pricing is usage-based rather than subscription-based. The Usage Based plan costs $5 per 1M characters and includes REST API access, email support, GDPR / DSGVO compliance, and balances that do not expire. Enterprise adds an uptime SLA, private cloud or on-premise deployment, custom volume and pricing, and custom DPA and legal review. This structure suits projects with variable narration needs, especially when unused credits should remain available, while the lack of a free plan makes paid usage the starting point.

Tontaube’s strongest distinction is the combination of document conversion, audiobook creation, and voice cloning in one service. A 30,000-character limit applies, and Opus is the listed export format. The API documentation currently lists English support, while homepage materials advertise English and German, so language requirements deserve attention before a larger production workflow. Audiobook creators who value document-to-speech conversion and flexible programmatic access should consider Tontaube. Teams needing broader confirmed language coverage, additional listed export formats, or a free evaluation option should choose an alternative.
