Voices
Settings → Voices is described on the screen as the voices your assistant can speak in — cloned or licensed. Under the heading, Voice registry shows how many you have.Reading a row
Each row gives you the name, then the provider and what kind of voice it is — whether it came ready-made, is a professional voice, or is one you added — and any note that was saved with it. On the right of the row is a status, and a voice with nothing to flag carries no badge at all — it is simply usable.
Only a usable voice can be previewed, or picked when something is being made
— the badge and the availability are the same answer.
Adding a voice
Two controls sit in the header, and they do different jobs.1
Pick from library
Opens Add a voice from the library — audition a curated default, or
search the full library. Defaults is a shortlist; Browse voices has a
search box and tags each result with its type, the speaker’s rough age and
accent, and what it suits — conversational, narration, social, and so on.
Anything already in your registry is marked Added; everything else
offers Use this voice.
2
Add a voice
For a voice you already hold with the provider. Give it a label you will
recognise, paste the voice ID from your provider account, and optionally
set the voice type, the language as a standard language tag such as
en-US, and a short note on what it is for.The ID is taken exactly as you paste it — it is not checked with the
provider first — so copy it rather than typing it from memory.Changing one later
Manage on any row offers Edit and Deactivate. If you do not have permission to manage this workspace’s settings, the control is not there at all. Editing changes the label, the type, the language and the note. It does not change which voice it points at: the provider ID is fixed once a voice is added, so to point somewhere else, Deactivate the old entry and add a new one — there is no separate remove; a deactivated entry stays in the list. Voice credentials are stored encrypted.Avatars
Settings → Avatars holds your on-camera likeness for avatar-led videos. It reads the same way as Voices — a list, two ways to add, Manage on each row.Reading a row
Name, provider, and any note saved with it. The status is about consent and rights, and it always names the actual reason rather than a general “not ready”:
A row whose consent is still valid but lapses within the next month is flagged
as expiring soon, so you can renew it before a render fails.
Adding an avatar
1
Pick from library
Add an avatar look — preview a curated default, or browse the public
library on the Browse avatars tab. If nothing is curated for you yet, the
Defaults tab says so and points you at Browse.
2
Add an avatar
For an avatar you already hold with the provider. Give it a display name,
paste the avatar ID from your provider account, optionally record how it
was created, and choose where it can be used — as the presenter in an avatar
lesson, as the picture-in-picture face over a screen share, or both.As with voices, the ID is pasted exactly and is not verified with the
provider first.
Where these get used
A production profile can name a default voice and a default avatar for the kind of video it makes. Those defaults are provisioned values — you can see them on Production profiles, but there is no control there for changing them today.What to do next
- Strategy and taste — steering what Goosy writes without repeating yourself.
- Production profiles — the look and shape a render comes out in.
