Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Occasionally updatedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

So, I installed the free version and went through all the trouble and signed up for an AWS account to use Polly voices, which sound reasonable. However, my blogposts have a length of about 1500 to 3500 words, and the free version of Easy Text To Speech says after all that the length of the content is too long. It will not take it. This fact is not disclosed as a limitation by the makers of the plugin. Otherwise the free version is really barebones. This topic was modified 1 year, 2 months ago by t0m4u.

After testing over 20 plugins, I finally found this one. I was pleasantly surprised by its user-friendly interface and the quick support from the developer. Although it’s still version 1, it already offers a good range of options. I hope the team continues to improve it, as many people are in need of such a plugin, but there are very few that offer this many features.

We’ve been using the voice sample trained with ElevenLabs in various projects for a long time. When we started looking for a plugin to use for T2S on our website, we came across this plugin. Our tests with Amazon Polly went wonderfully. Thanks to the detailed instructions, we were able to launch Polly on our website very quickly. After gaining a bit more familiarity, I plan to try the Pro version with ElevenLabs as well.
