Stop scrolling. You've been doing this wrong your entire life, and nobody told you, because the right way takes four seconds and looks like cheating. Watch.

Short-form story

Narration for a faceless story clip, built to land in under a minute.

So my neighbour knocks on the door at eleven at night holding a ladder. Not asking for anything — just holding it. And he says, completely calmly: don't worry, this is about the cat. It was not about the cat.

About the Tiago voice

Tiago is the clear Portuguese male voice: plainer than Beatriz, more even, and better suited to material where the information is the point. He handles the long clauses Portuguese prose favours without losing the thread.

Why a Portuguese voice, and not an English one

Tiago was trained on Portuguese, which matters more than it sounds like it should. An English voice pointed at Portuguese text will get the individual sounds roughly right and the rhythm completely wrong — stress in the wrong places, vowel lengths flattened, the melody of the sentence replaced with an English one. It is intelligible and it is immediately, unmistakably foreign.

Portuguese is also read here by Beatriz — worth previewing side by side, since the difference between two voices in the same language is usually more useful than the difference between two languages.

The engine behind this voice

Kokoro is an 82-million-parameter open-weights model under Apache-2.0 — the cheapest capable engine available by roughly an order of magnitude, which is what makes this tier free at all. It takes up to 5,000 characters per request, adjusts from 0.75× to 1.5×, and returns MP3 or WAV. Longer text is split at sentence boundaries and joined back into one file.

What Tiago costs

Nothing. Tiago is a free-tier voice: 5,000 characters a day without an account, 10,000 with a free one, and no credit card at any point. Audio downloads as MP3 or WAV and carries a commercial licence, so monetised videos and client work are both fine.

The daily allowance is stated plainly here because several sites in this category advertise "unlimited" and enforce a monthly cap. What is written above is what the server enforces.

Best for

What Tiago is good for

  • Portuguese tutorials, explainers and training material
  • Announcements and information audio in Portuguese
  • Longer Portuguese narration needing a consistent read
  • Two-voice Portuguese projects alongside Beatriz

Limits

Where Tiago is the wrong choice

Same Brazilian-only caveat as Beatriz, and the same C grade. On expressive or emotional Portuguese copy he stays level where the script wants him to move.
