Hear the difference

The same Ukrainian sentence, twice. Vira is a Ukrainian speaker; Zoe reads Ukrainian with an English accent - the г, the і/и contrast and the unreduced vowels are the tell.

The Ukrainian voices

All 5 run on the ElevenLabs tiers: Enhanced at 110 credits / 1,000 characters (≈ $0.23 per minute of speech) and Premium at 160 (≈ $0.33) for the most natural result. The Standard tier reads Ukrainian too at 50 credits, and for most languages it has native voices of its own. Every clip downloads as MP3. Browse the voice library →

Why a native Ukrainian voice matters

The most common failure in Ukrainian TTS is not an English accent but a Russian one, because so many multilingual models learned Cyrillic mostly from Russian. Ukrainian г is a voiced h, not a hard g; о stays a full o in unstressed positions instead of reducing to an a; and и and і are separate vowels that Russian-trained voices merge. Get those wrong and the result reads as Russian pronunciation applied to Ukrainian text - which is exactly what Ukrainian listeners notice first.

All five voices are Ukrainian speakers. Vira is a natural, young-sounding storyteller and Yaroslava a brisk, energetic voice for news-style and informational content. Evgeniy is a vibrant, rich male narrator - the most-used Ukrainian voice in the library - and Leonid a calm, teacherly one with a Kyiv colour, suited to explainers and long-form narration. Alex is a confident, clear male voice that paces itself with deliberate pauses, made for informational content. The apostrophe (об’єкт) and the softening ь are read as the separate phonetic events they are, not skipped.

Frequently asked questions

Does it sound Ukrainian or Russian?

Ukrainian. These are native Ukrainian voices, so г is the voiced h, unstressed о is not reduced to a, and и and і stay distinct - the three things that make Russian-trained TTS sound wrong on Ukrainian text.

Does it read ї, є, ґ and the apostrophe correctly?

Yes - all four Ukrainian-specific letters are native to these voices, and the apostrophe is read as the hard separation it marks rather than being ignored.

Can it read mixed Ukrainian and English text?

Yes. English brand names and technical terms inside Ukrainian text are pronounced as English rather than transliterated through Cyrillic reading rules.

How much does Ukrainian text to speech cost?

Native Ukrainian voices exist on every tier: two on Standard at 50 credits per 1,000 characters, and the five on this page on Enhanced at 110 or Premium at 160. A 1,000-character paragraph is roughly one minute of speech - about $0.10 on Standard or $0.23 on Enhanced at the $5 pack rate. No subscription.
