ADVANCED TEXT-TO-SPEECH
Looking for the best text-to-speech plugin on WordPress?
Using methods like natural language processing (NLP), BeyondWords’ unique text processing algorithms optimally convert your content into speech synthesis markup language (SSML). This enables AI voices to effectively pronounce elements that other platforms can struggle with, such as names, numbers, and dates, as well as filtering out elements that shouldn’t be read aloud. You can even add aliases to ensure everything is read exactly how you want it.
BeyondWords gives you access to neural voices from Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services, and Microsoft Azure (500+ voices across 140+ language locales).
You can also get access to premium neural voices — voice clones of professional voice actors that are exclusive to BeyondWords. Users have the option to develop a completely bespoke custom voice using our voice cloning service.
The result is naturalistic spoken-word audio content that engages your target audience — at a fraction of the cost of human recordings.
EFFORTLESS DISTRIBUTION
BeyondWords makes it easy to reach new audiences and grow your listenership. As well as auto-embedding audio players to your WordPress site, you can embed your audio manually or share via URL. You can even download your audios as mp3 files.
This includes content created automatically with our WordPress text-to-speech plugin, as well as content created manually with the Text-to-Speech Editor — perfect for audio newsletters.
Users can even create custom playlists that keep listeners listening for longer. These can be embedded, shared via URL, or even distributed via podcast feed. That means you can reach audiences through platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
ANALYTICS AND MONETIZATION
You get access to project analytics, which means you can track listener engagement at the project level through your BeyondWords dashboard. Users can also get access to audio analytics, as well as Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager integrations.
You can even leverage your listenership through audio advertising. Use our self-serve audio advertising feature to create your own campaigns or use VAST (video ad serving template) to connect a programmatic advertising platform, such as Google Ad Manager.

Release date: 10th December 2024
Fixes
- 423 Optimise WordPress HTTP calls to BeyondWords REST API.
- Increase the WordPress default
timeout
param from5
to30
. This is to address a reported issue where REST API calls are sometimes timing out in WordPress/PHP before the REST API is able to respond. - Also removed the
sslverify
param for API calls. This is no longer recommended.
- Increase the WordPress default
5.2.1
Release date: 28th November 2024
Fixes
- #421 Update WordPress GET voice queries to use scopes.
- Fixes the issue where multilingual voices were not being shown in voices dropdown menus.
- #417 Improve handling of failed REST API requests when syncing settings.
- Add HTTP status code into failed API credentials validation message to improve debugging for empty response body.

5.2.0
Release date: 22nd November 2024
Enhancements
- #414 Tested up to WordPress 6.7.
- #409 Support the recommended inline script tag method to embed players.
- This opt-in feature is experimental and may change, or be removed, in the near future.
- Opt-in to the inline
<script>
tag method of auto-embedding audio players by defining the constantBEYONDWORDS_PLAYER_INLINE_SCRIPT_TAG
astrue
in yourwp-config.php
. - This was added because the recent removal of the deprecated
beyondwords_content_id
filter caused problems for a publisher who had been using it to display an audio player from another post on their homepage. - After opting-in, audio players that are auto-prepended to the post body should now use the
beyondwords_content_id
andbeyondwords_project_id
from the associated post being queried within The Loop. - A known-issue is the current implementation is currently incompatible with both the BeyondWords shortcode and the BeyondWords player block. Compatibility will be ensured before this experimental opt-in feature is shipped to all users. In the meantime players added using either the shortcode or player block are unlikely to appear when the
BEYONDWORDS_PLAYER_INLINE_SCRIPT_TAG
istrue
.
Fixes
- #413 Refactor API calls to prevent “invalid creds” messages
- Since upgrading to version 5 a few publishers have reported problems with their valid API credentials being flagged as invalid, so the checks we had in place to validate the API Key and Project ID have been updated.
- API calls to create/update BeyondWords content can now be made with potentially invalid credentials. If this happens (e.g. if your API Key has been revoked) the 401 Unauthorized error code and error message will be stored for your requests and visible in WordPress admin.

- #407 Regenerate audio for all post statuses
- If a post has a content ID for audio then we now always make PUT requests to the BeyondWords REST API when the post is updated.
- This fixes an issue where the
published
property of audio was not set tofalse
when WordPress posts were moved back todraft
status.
- #408 Generate Audio checkbox in Classic Editor doesn’t reflect the “Preselect” setting
- A change in the
v5.0
