Hey fellow Redditors,
I'm reaching out for help finding a free plugin that can automatically transform my written WordPress blog posts into text-to-speech audio. As some of you may know, the feature that allowed us to convert WordPress blog posts into podcasts using Anchor's text-to-speech functionality has been discontinued as of May 11, 2023.
I had been using this integration to create podcasts from my blog posts, but now I'm looking for an alternative. I've come across the BeyondWords plugin, which offers text-to-speech capabilities for WordPress, but I'm not sure if it's the best option or if there are other free alternatives available.
I'd love to hear from anyone who has experience with text-to-speech plugins or has found a reliable replacement for the discontinued Anchor feature. I'm looking for something that can be integrated into my WordPress site, not just a standalone tool.
Some key features I'm looking for include:
- Automatic conversion of blog posts to text-to-speech audio
- Integration with WordPress
- Free or low-cost option
- Ability to customize audio settings and voices
If you have any recommendations or suggestions, please share them in the comments below. I'd appreciate any help in finding a suitable replacement for the discontinued Anchor feature.
