Google Vids is expanding its AI voiceovers with new options
What’s changing
Since bringing Google Vids—our AI-powered video creation app for work—to general availability last year, users have engaged with Gemini features in Vids like AI voiceovers. Today, we’re excited to announce that users can now choose from a wider range of AI voices for their videos with the introduction of new options:
- Narrator (Default) - Smooth, medium pitch
- Educator - Friendly, higher pitch
- Teacher - Clear, low pitch
- Persuader - Engaging, low pitch
- Explainer - Lively, low pitch
- Coach - Lively, higher pitch
- Motivator - Energetic, medium pitch
