Frequently Asked Questions

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.
