Case Study: GoAnimate achieves lifelike multilingual voiceovers and major cost-and-time savings with Amazon Polly

GoAnimate - Customer Case Study

GoAnimate, a web-based DIY video-creation platform for businesses, educators, and marketers, needed a fast, affordable way to add high-quality voiceover to animated explainers—especially for users without recording equipment or budgets for professional talent. To expand language support and deliver natural-sounding narration as a TTS option, GoAnimate evaluated multiple providers and selected Amazon Polly.

GoAnimate integrated Amazon Polly for its lifelike multi-language voices and easy-to-use API, enabling character lip-sync and quick localization without hosting or scalability overhead. The switch cut TTS costs from $2,000 to $100 per month and saves roughly two man-months annually, while customers like Kapitec report faster iteration, greater engagement, and increased video views thanks to Amazon Polly.
