FAQ
-
How much does it cost ?
-
It cost a five star Review, just kiding, it’s free.
Note : If you use the Google TTS, you’ll need to give your banking informations to Google and you can be charged if you use it a lot, however SayIt! is using a smart caching system, so it request Google only for new voice Generation. -
Can I mix language ?
-
Yes you can ! In the settings, you choose the default language to use but you can pass parameter in the shortcodes like so [sayit lang=»fr-FR»]Bonjour[/sayit]
Note that you can’t mix language yet if you are using Google TTS. -
Do you collect any data?
-
No, coding something to collect data is kind of complicated, no time for that.
