This new AI platform wants to be the Canva of audio

Since tools like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and DALL-E burst onto the scene, creating high-quality content has become something anyone can do, regardless of their experience. It's a whole new world for those of us who love to create but might not have the skills or resources to do so traditionally.
Now, there’s a new tool on the block. Imagine being able to produce studio-quality audio for podcasts, audiobooks, ads, or any project you dream up. That's the idea behind Wondercraft.
Built by former Spotify and Plantir engineers, Wondercraft originally launched in beta back in May of 2023. Fast forward to January of 2024, and the team raised a $3m seed round led by Will Ventures and joined by voice-research company Eleven Labs.
The team describes Wondercraft as Canva for audio, and they want to do for audio what Canva did for design — make it accessible to everyone.
The idea is pretty simple: you type, and the platform, built on ElevenLabs AI, turns it into studio-quality audio. You can pick from different AI voices or even clone your own voice to make your projects more personal. They've also got templates to make things faster, like one for a daily news reader, which was used to make this Hacker News podcast.
Once you’re done, you can automatically translate or dub your audio to over 15 different languages and quickly generate a video to pair with your project just by typing in a few keywords.
