Listening and publishing

Listen to a short selection, stop playback, or start it manually if needed.

Choose Listen for snippets, selected blocks, voices, pronunciations, and effects. In Listen to selection: Audio starts automatically when it is ready. Use Stop to end playback. If your browser blocks automatic playback, choose Play to start it manually. You can also download the prepared audio. Check a short selection before publishing the entire manuscript.

Publish manuscript prepares files for the entire manuscript, even when you select only audio. Choose the output formats, then Publish. Publication ready means the files are ready to download, not that your work has been distributed publicly.

Open Job Status for the account, select the job, and use Files or Downloads. Available formats depend on what that job produced. Listening and publishing share this history; project exports remain separate export jobs.

Check the job status and Technical details. The original error, identifiers, and diagnostics remain available for support. Check narration service, payment source, voice settings, and audio file readiness before retrying. A processing failure does not establish that manuscript edits were lost.
