“In the biggest languages, the voices sound nearly human.”
Review on Capterra , 1 December 2022
“…an impressive natural-like array of voices and great customer support.”
Review on Capterra , 27 September 2022
Costa Ricans, who call themselves ticos, keep a clear final s, and many give r and rr a soft buzz, close to the s in pleasure. As elsewhere in Central America, z and soft c sound like s. Choose these voices for national ads, eco-tourism narration and staff training in San José offices.
Usted is the everyday form in much of Costa Rica, heard between couples and from parents to children. Vos is the casual form among young friends, and tú is rare enough to sound foreign or over-familiar. Shop staff greet customers with a friendly ¿cómo le va?, in usted. A local ad usually picks usted or vos and sticks with it.
Tico words give a script its accent: mae for buddy, diay as a thinking pause, ¡qué chiva! for great, brete for work, and upe, called out at a door instead of knocking. Mae, the most common, works among peers but not in formal notices. Preview names such as Sarapiquí, Turrialba and Talamanca, and set any fix in the pronunciation dictionary.

Ticos say pura vida for hello, thanks, goodbye and all good. Once in a tourism or social script sounds natural; three times in a minute sounds like a souvenir shop. Leave it out of a bank or hospital message, where it can sound flippant.
Yes, when the audience is in Costa Rica or visiting. Use the names local guides use: perezoso for sloth, lapa roja for scarlet macaw and tortuga baula for leatherback turtle. Pair the Spanish narration with an English version for tourists, and preview each species name.
