None of these voices were made from Dutch recordings. They are multilingual voices that read Dutch: Emily reads the sample, and the other cards play each voice reading the same Dutch line.

Tips for natural Dutch text to speech

Write ij with the letters i and j, as in "tijd" and "wijn", not with a y. Keep the accents that change meaning: "één" means one and "een" means a, "vóór" means before and "voor" means for. The trema in words like "ruïne" and "beïnvloeden" shows where a new syllable starts, so keep it too.

Spell out abbreviations like "bijv.", "d.w.z.", and "o.a." as "bijvoorbeeld", "dat wil zeggen", and "onder andere" if you want them read in full. Dutch writes € 1.250,50 with a point for thousands and a comma for decimals, and "half drie" means 2:30, so write amounts and times as words when the reading matters.

What people make with Dutch text to speech

Dutch text to speech is used for YouTube and TikTok videos, e-learning and onboarding videos, presentations, webshop product videos, and verjaardagswensen in the Netherlands and Flanders.

Voices AI reads, it does not translate

Voices AI does not translate; it reads the Dutch you type, word for word. Starting from an English script? Translate it into Dutch first, decide whether you address listeners as je or u, then paste it in. Have a native speaker check it before you publish.

FAQ

Is Dutch text to speech free?

Voices AI is free to download, and you can listen to the Dutch sample on this page. Generating audio uses the credits or subscription in your account, so check the app for current plans.

Does it work for Flemish (Belgian Dutch)?

The voices speak standard Dutch. Text from Flanders is read with a standard Dutch accent rather than a Flemish one, and words mostly used in Belgium may sound less natural, so test a short line first.

How do I get abbreviations like "bijv." read in full?

Write them out: "bijvoorbeeld" instead of "bijv." and "dat wil zeggen" instead of "d.w.z.".

Can it translate English into Dutch?

No. Text to speech reads the text as written. Translate your script into Dutch first, then generate the audio.

Can I download the Dutch audio?

Yes. Download the generated audio and use it in your video editor, presentation, or messages.
