The GLaDOS Voice: Who Voices GLaDOS and How to Recreate It

GLaDOS is the polite, murderous AI from Valve's Portal games. She guides the player through the test chambers of Aperture Science with a calm, synthetic voice, dry insults and a promise of cake. Lazybird's GLaDOS voice generator lets you create new lines in that deadpan style for memes, game mods, fan videos and smart-home announcements.

Who voices GLaDOS?

GLaDOS, short for Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System, is the artificial intelligence that runs the Aperture Science Enrichment Center in Valve's Portal games. She was created by Erik Wolpaw and Kim Swift for Portal, released in 2007 as part of The Orange Box, and returned in Portal 2 in 2011. Ellen McLain voices her, and also sang the closing song "Still Alive", written by Jonathan Coulton. McLain won the 2011 Spike Video Game Award for Best Performance by a Human Female for Portal 2. Lazybird's GLaDOS voice is an AI voice inspired by the character, not a recording of Ellen McLain.

GLaDOS text to speech

Lazybird's GLaDOS TTS runs in your browser and is free to start. Type your text, select the GLaDOS voice and hear it back in seconds, then download the MP3 for a video, a mod or a smart-home routine. Pair it with Jarvis for a duel between two AI assistants, or with Microsoft Sam for an older computer voice.

What makes a good GLaDOS voice clip?

GLaDOS never raises her voice. The best clips sound calm and polite while saying something cruel: a compliment that turns into an insult, a safety notice that isn't reassuring, a test result read like a verdict. Keep sentences short and formal, and save the sting for the last few words.

About this voice

This is an AI voice made by the Lazybird community to sound like GLaDOS. It is not the real voice of Ellen McLain, and Lazybird is not affiliated with or endorsed by Valve or the voice cast. Use it for parody, fan content and personal projects, and label AI-generated audio as such.

Voice cloning is AMAZING

โ€œThe program itself takes a few tries to get used to. I was really interested in the voice cloning. One five-minute audio of me reading a book and BAM! minutes later it was loaded. I played with the expressiveness and speed and I CAN'T BELIEVE IT SOUNDS JUST LIKE ME!!!!! You can do multiple clones, so I am going to make a recording for different genres. This is over the top exciting. THANK YOU!โ€

Makes creating podcasts easy

โ€œLazybird uses your scripts (dialogues) to create voiceovers. The voiceovers can be one or more persons, though I only created two-person podcasts, a host and a guest...โ€

Awesome: Effortless Script Handling

โ€œI have tried several systems before, and I can confidently say this is the best for long scripts. I even used it for a long audio script that lasts around 75 minutes.The great thing is that you just need to bring the text and paste it in the first section; the system will take all the script, no matter how long, and just past it, and it will divide it into sections. There's no need to copy one paragraph or sentence at a time...โ€
