Velkomin í hlaðvarpið mitt.
Icelandic has about 370,000 speakers. A clear, native-sounding voice is the difference between audio that feels local and audio that sounds dubbed.
Icelandic text to speech in three steps.
- 01
Type or paste your Icelandic text
Write in Íslenska directly, or write in English and let Polyvox translate it into Icelandic before it speaks. Latin alphabet with þ (thorn), ð (eth), and accented vowels (á, é, í, ó, ú, ý, ö).
- 02
Choose a voice
Record thirty seconds of your own voice. Your clone reads the Icelandic script with native pronunciation while still sounding like you.
- 03
Generate and share
Polyvox renders the speech in seconds. Share it with a link, or download it as an MP3 on a paid plan.
Two ways to voice Icelandic text.
A ready-made voice
Multilingual voice actors cover dozens of other languages. For Icelandic, your own cloned voice does the reading.
Your own voice
Record thirty seconds in any language. Polyvox clones it and reads your Icelandic text in your voice, even if you don't speak Icelandic yourself.

Icelandic text to speech questions
Is Icelandic text to speech free?
You can sign up and try Polyvox free, but Icelandic is one of the languages on the Global plan. Global includes clips of up to 5,000 characters and MP3 downloads.
How many Icelandic voices are there?
Icelandic is read by your own cloned voice rather than a stock voice. Record about thirty seconds in any language and Polyvox speaks Icelandic in that voice.
Do I have to type in Íslenska?
No. You can type in Icelandic or write the script in English and let Polyvox translate it first, so you don't need a Icelandic keyboard to get Icelandic speech.
How natural does the Icelandic pronunciation sound?
Preaspirated stops and the þ/ð sounds have no equivalent in most languages. Polyvox produces them accurately. Icelandic has changed so little since the sagas were written 800 years ago that modern speakers can still read them.
Can I download the Icelandic audio?
On paid plans, every clip downloads as an MP3 you can drop into a video editor, course, or ad. On the free plan you can play and share clips by link.
What's the difference between text to speech and voice cloning?
Text to speech turns written Icelandic into audio. With Polyvox the voice reading it can be a ready-made actor or a clone of your own voice, so the same tool covers both.
