Audio.co (formerly RadioNewsAI) vs Murf AI

Audio.co is Aiir's broadcast audio platform for creating ready-to-air content for radio stations and podcasts. From one dashboard, stations can produce newscasts, commercial spots, weather reports, and traffic updates, all voiced and formatted for on-air use. Plans start at $19 per month.

The news module pulls stories from websites or RSS feeds and rewrites them with scripting models trained on your station's style. When sources publish new content, scheduled newscasts refresh automatically, with finished files delivered via download link, Dropbox, or FTP to your playout system.

Ad production is built for quick spec spots and full campaigns. Describe a client's business, pick an AI voice or clone a permitted talent, and Audio.co pairs the script with a music bed from TM Studios' production library before assembling the finished commercial.

Weather and traffic round out the toolkit. Forecasts use WeatherAPI data with support for postal codes, ZIP codes, or latitude and longitude coordinates. Traffic reports cover a defined area with customizable incident counts and pronunciation rules for local road names.

Murf AI turns text, documents, and scripts into lifelike speech for videos, courses, and phone agents. Murf Studio offers 200+ voices across 35+ languages with pitch, speed, and pronunciation controls, while the Falcon text-to-speech API targets real-time voice agents with sub-100ms time-to-first-audio. Murf Dubbing translates videos into 40+ languages while preserving tone.

Most text-to-speech tools sound flat or lag on live calls. Murf splits the problem: Gen 2 scored 99.38% pronunciation accuracy on multilingual news sentences, and Falcon 2 prices at $0.01 per minute with sub-55ms model latency for 10,000 concurrent calls. That dual-model setup costs more complexity than a single voice picker, but it covers both studio voiceovers and IVR agents in one platform.

Nestle, Air France, and Vertiv use Murf for training audio and multilingual content. The free Studio tier includes 10 minutes of voice generation without commercial rights, and paid monthly plans unlock downloads, team workspaces, and commercial licensing.
