VoicesUS®

What VoicesUS® does

VoicesUS® is a privately operated, two-sided online marketplace connecting clients with a curated pool of 477 North American voiceover artists, offering searchable talent profiles and 2,870 audio demos. The platform runs an automated free audition system in which clients post project briefs and receive custom recorded samples directly in their inbox — frequently within the hour — and an optional hands-on managed casting service for projects requiring artist recommendations and fee negotiation. The technology stack is a web-based marketplace built on a searchable directory, automated audition workflow, Stripe payment processing, and PayPal/bank-transfer disbursement to talent, with integrations including Streak CRM, Quicklink TX for live directed sessions, and a newly disclosed partnership with ElevenLabs for AI voice capability.

The company's revenue model combines one-time, non-recurring talent membership fees ($99.99 lifetime or $49.99 for a 6-month trial, with no rebilling) with per-project commissions of 20% on automated audition bookings and 10–20% on managed projects. Go-to-market is self-serve, supported by SEO, a content blog, organic social, and earned trust signals such as a 4.8/5 Trustindex rating across 76 reviews and multiple One Voice Awards. VoicesUS® is operated by VoicesUK Ltd, a UK-registered private limited company, and runs as a remote team of 1–10 employees serving primarily U.S. and Canadian clients with displayed customer references spanning Amazon, Disney, Netflix, NASA, Google, LEGO, Nintendo, Mercedes-Benz, Walmart and others. The company is bootstrapped, holds no disclosed external funding, and is GDPR/CCPA/COPPA/CalOPPA/CAN-SPAM compliant.

Direct peers

• Voices.com: Largest dedicated voiceover talent marketplace, connecting clients with professional voice actors globally. Directly comparable to VoicesUS in product model (searchable talent directory + audition/project workflow) and target customer (production companies, brands, agencies).
• Voice123: Online voiceover marketplace where clients post projects and receive auditions from professional voice actors. Closely mirrors VoicesUS's free-audition / paid-hire workflow and serves the same production company, agency, and corporate buyer segments.
• Bunny Studio: Subscription-based marketplace for voiceover, dubbing, and translation services. Comparable to VoicesUS on the voiceover marketplace side and adds managed-service features analogous to VoicesUS's 10–20% managed-project offering.
• ACX (Audible / Amazon): Audiobook narration marketplace connecting authors and publishers with voice actors. Comparable business model (project posting + audition + commission) and overlaps with VoicesUS on audiobook use cases, which are explicitly listed as a VoicesUS use case.
• Edge Studio: Voiceover talent agency and training provider offering demos, casting, and production services. Comparable to VoicesUS's curated talent showcase and pre-screening approach, with additional production and training adjacencies.
• The Voice Realm: Online marketplace connecting clients with voiceover talent across commercial, narration, and entertainment projects. Direct competitor with a similar curated talent directory and audition-based workflow.

Broad incumbents

• Fiverr: Large horizontal freelance marketplace with a substantial voiceover category. Competes with VoicesUS for SMB and self-serve buyer demand, though Fiverr's voiceover quality and curation are generally less specialized than VoicesUS's pre-screened roster.
• Backstage: Casting platform for actors, models, and voice talent with project posting and audition workflows. Comparable on the talent discovery and audition experience, though Backstage spans on-camera casting rather than specializing in voiceover.

Emerging players

• Behind The Voice Actors: Voice acting community and casting database for animation, games, and commercial voiceover. Comparable as a discovery and casting resource for voice talent, with overlap in target buyer (entertainment and games studios).
• Voices Voice Over Marketplace (LinkedIn-adjacent platforms): General freelance and professional services platforms (LinkedIn ProFinder, Upwork) where buyers source voice talent. Adjacent competitor for self-serve voiceover buyers, especially in the SMB and corporate training segments where VoicesUS also operates.
