About BritishAccent

The catalog is organized by accent and covers received pronunciation, young British English, and Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish voices, with 185 voices listed on the homepage.
Each voice is labeled with gender, an approximate age range, a regional accent and a suggested style such as documentary, audiobook, education, corporate or meditation narration. The site also offers voice tools, including voice cloning, and a video creator section. Example voice notes mention short-form clips, lessons, games and creator videos.
