| Length | 15 to 30 seconds |
| File type | MP3 or WAV |
| File size | Under 4 MB |


## What makes a good sample

The sample is how your character will sound, so the way you speak in it carries through to everything the voice says.

- **Sounds scripted** Reading a paragraph in a flat, careful voice. A noisy room. Music in the background. A phone held at arm's length.
- **Sounds natural** Talking as if to a friend, at your normal pace. A quiet room. The microphone close and steady.

> **Sound like yourself**
>
> If the sample sounds like you're reading, the voice will sound read too. Speak as you would in a voice message.


## Make a voice note

1. **Choose Voice Note** On the **Create** page, choose **Voice Note** under the prompt and pick your character.
2. **Type what they should say** Type or paste the words into the box. Write it the way people talk, with short sentences.

   *In the app:* ![The Voice Note box with a short message typed in and the Generate voice note button.](https://www.sozee.ai/assets/guides/ai-voice-clone/app-2-voice-note.webp) *The words to say (1) and **Generate voice note** (2).*

3. **Generate** Press **Generate voice note**. It stays off until a character is picked and there's text in the box.

Voice notes cost 0.01 credits per second of audio, with a 0.05 credit minimum, so a 15-second note costs about 0.15 credits. Voice notes are part of the paid plans, including Pay As You Go.

You can also ask [Agent](/guides/ai-agent) for a **Voice note**: it writes the words in your character's voice and shows them before anything is made.

## Writing words that sound right

- **Short sentences.** They're easier to say naturally.
- **Contractions.** “I'm” and “can't” sound like a person. “I am” and “cannot” sound like a letter.
- **Spell out tricky names** the way they're said if they come out wrong.
- **Read it out loud first.** If it sounds stiff from you, it will sound stiff from the voice.

Thirty seconds of talking is all it takes. [Open Characters](https://app.sozee.ai/characters)
