## 1. Newbie Guide

### What is audio AI and how is it different from video AI?

Audio AI is the tech behind synthetic voices that sound nearly human — from a sample of your voice, AI learns and produces a synthetic clone (voice clone). You write text -> AI reads it back (Text-to-Speech).

**Differences vs video AI:**
- Video AI (skill 24): produces video with face + voice -> talking head, social video
- Audio AI (this skill): produces voice only -> podcast, audiobook, voiceover, narration

### When to use audio AI instead of video?

| Situation | Pick audio AI | Pick video AI |
|-----------|---------------|---------------|
| Long-form content (>10 min) | YES — podcast format | NO — too long for video |
| Don't want to be on camera | YES | NO |
| Need volume content fast | YES — 1 podcast = 10 shorts | YES but more expensive |
| Audience listens while driving / at gym | YES | NO |
| Need visuals to demo | NO | YES |
| Personal brand thought leader | YES — podcast = authority | YES — if face brand exists |

### Main tools (international)

- **ElevenLabs:** Best in class for voice clone — top-tier English voices (US/UK/AU/IN), 30+ languages
- **Murf:** 120+ voice library, strong for corporate voiceover, multilingual
- **PlayHT:** API-friendly, instant clone, 800+ voices
- **HeyGen Voice:** Bundles with HeyGen avatars — seamless voice + video pipeline
- **Descript:** AI editing — cut audio by editing text, voice clone (Overdub)
- **Resemble.ai:** Custom emotion control, brand-grade APIs
- **Riverside:** Studio-quality podcast recording with AI Magic Clips repurpose

### Time and cost

| Task | Time | Cost (USD/mo) |
|------|------|---------------|
| Voice clone setup | 30-60 min | $5-22 (ElevenLabs Starter/Pro) |
| 60s voiceover (TikTok) | 5-10 min | $5-22 |
| 30 min solo podcast | 1-2 hrs | $22-99 (ElevenLabs + Riverside) |
| Audiobook chapter (15 min) | 30-45 min | $22-99 |
| 1 podcast -> 10 clips | 1-2 hrs | $0-30 (Descript/Opus Clip) |

### 5 common mistakes

1. **AI voice sounds robotic:** sample too short or monotonic. Fix: re-record 3-5 minutes with varied emotions (happy, serious, sad).
2. **Mispronounced names/jargon:** TTS engines mishandle proper nouns. Fix: use phonetic spelling (e.g., "Anthropic" -> "an-THROW-pic") in the script.
3. **Audio clipping:** levels too hot. Fix: target -3dB peak, -16 LUFS loudness.
4. **Background noise/echo:** untreated room. Fix: small room with curtains and rugs, or apply NVIDIA Broadcast / Krisp / Adobe Enhance Speech.
5. **Boring podcast:** no editing, too many "ums". Fix: Descript auto-removes filler words, add light background music (-25dB).
