# Voice Clone

> Record a short sample and your agent can speak in that voice — a founder's own, or someone from your team.

Fifteen seconds of somebody reading a line becomes a voice your agent can
answer calls in. It is a Studio voice like any other on the [Voice
page](/channels/voice) — same per-minute rate, same tab — except this one is
yours rather than picked from a catalogue.

<Note>
  **Voice Clone** has its own page in the main sidebar, under the same group as
  Phone Numbers and Voice Campaigns. It lists every voice this workspace has
  made, not one agent's.
</Note>

<Warning>
  **This is on the Scale plan and above.** Free and pay-as-you-go see the offer
  over a blurred page rather than the recorder — cloning somebody's voice and
  then telling them they cannot use it would be worse than not offering it.
</Warning>

## Clone a voice

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Voice Clone">
    In the main sidebar, choose **Voice Clone**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Agree to the two things this actually asks">
    Before anything records, you confirm two separate promises — not one
    checkbox that quietly covers both:

    * The recording is your own voice, or you hold the rights and permission to
      clone the voice in it.
    * You will not use it to impersonate anyone, or for anything illegal,
      harmful or misleading.

    Both are recorded against the voice, with who agreed and when — this is
    what makes the clone lawful to hold, not a formality on top of it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read the line out loud">
    Record straight from the page, or upload a file — WAV, MP3, M4A or WebM.

    Fifteen seconds is the sweet spot: five is the least the engine will accept,
    and thirty is the most it wants — read your longest sentence twice if you
    are short, rather than pausing partway through and starting again.

    Read normally, in one take, without music or anyone else talking over you.
    A treated room helps, but is not required — noise removal is on by default
    and can be turned off if it flattens a voice recorded somewhere already
    quiet.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Name it and set its language">
    Give it a name your team will recognise on the Voice page later — "Rohan"
    or "Founder voice", not "Recording 3". Pick the language it will be
    registered under, and an accent within it where the language has more than
    one — Indian English and American English are not interchangeable for a
    voice, even though the words are the same.

    Description and tags are optional and are yours alone — a note for your own
    team about when to use this voice, not something a caller ever sees or
    hears.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Listen to it">
    The moment it is made, it says your line back to you in its own voice — the
    same sentence you read, spoken by the clone. That is the one time it is
    synthesized for free; every play after this comes from that same recording,
    never a fresh one.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Using it

A cloned voice appears on the **Studio** tab of the [Voice page](/channels/voice),
above the shared catalogue, marked as yours. Choose it like any other voice and
save — nothing else changes about the agent.

<Note>
  It answers calls at the **same per-minute rate as every other Studio voice**.
  Cloning costs nothing; what it speaks on a call is billed the same as Anjali,
  Rakesh Khanna or any of the hundreds of others on that tab.
</Note>

## The limit

**Ten cloned voices per workspace.** Delete one to make another once you reach
it — there is no way to raise the number on request, by design: a growing pile
of recordings of real people is a growing liability, not a feature people ask
for more of.

## Removing one

Delete a voice from the **Voice Clone** page and it is gone everywhere — the
recording, the preview, and the voice itself at the engine that spoke it. This
cannot be undone.

<Warning>
  **An agent already speaking with it is moved to a standard voice automatically**,
  so a deleted voice never leaves an agent silently billing the Studio rate for
  a voice that no longer exists. Check the agent's Voice page afterwards if you
  want to pick something else.
</Warning>

## Who can do this

**Admins only**, for cloning and for deleting. A cloned voice is somebody's
actual voice held under a consent record naming who agreed — the same weight
as the do-not-contact list or a KYC document, both of which are admin-only for
the same reason. Any member can still choose an already-cloned voice for an
agent, the same as choosing any other voice.

## What we keep, and for how long

The recording, the one stored preview, and the consent record stay for as long
as the voice exists. Deleting the voice deletes all three. There is nothing
else to configure — this follows the same erasure rule as [call
recordings](/channels/voice#recording-calls): once it is gone, it is gone, and
we cannot get it back.

<Note>
  Whether you had the right to clone a particular voice, and what you may say
  in it, is yours to get right — the two promises above are what we ask you to
  confirm, not a guarantee we can make on your behalf.
