We asked what felt off about AI voices, you told us. We’re fixing it.

Over the past few months, we’ve been talking to a lot of you using Velo.

Real conversations, and people trying it out, sending clips, pointing things out.

And almost everyone said some version of the same thing: “It sounds like me but something feels missing.”

At first, we thought it was about accuracy. Maybe the voice wasn’t close enough. But the more we listened, the clearer it became - that wasn’t the issue.

The issue was how it felt. The tone stays a bit too samey. The emphasis doesn’t always land where you expect it to. And the little natural shifts that make your voice yours just aren’t fully there yet. It sounds right, but it doesn’t feel alive.

So we went back and started reworking how we think about voice cloning at Velo. Not just matching how you sound, but capturing how you express. The way your voice changes when you’re explaining something, when you’re just talking casually, or when you actually care about what you’re saying.

That’s what we’re building now. The next version of Velo is focused on higher fidelity voice cloning. More nuance. Better pacing. More natural expression.

Something that doesn’t feel like a generated voice reading your script, but closer to you actually speaking.

We’re still building it, but it’s coming together fast. We’re planning to ship this soon.

If you’ve used Velo before, we’d love to know - what do you think about Velo's voice cloning or other workflows? What would make it feel right?

We’re listening.
