Windy Clone FAQ

Short answers to the questions people ask before they make a voice clone. More answers are on the home page.

Can I order a voice clone today?

Not yet. Windy Clone is in early access, and every provider in the Clone Studio is marked Coming Soon, so no provider is open for orders.

Does Windy Clone cost anything?

During early access there is no payment step and no charge. The Windy team reviews every order before anything is sent to a provider.

Can I upload a voice sample?

Not yet. Windy Clone does not accept voice uploads. Your recordings come from Windy Word.

Where are my recordings stored?

Unless you turn on a cloud feature, Windy Word saves your recordings on your own computer, in your archive folder. If your computer copies your Documents folder to a cloud backup service, that service may copy them too. Nothing deletes them for you: you remove a recording by deleting its file or with the delete buttons in History. Deleting your Windy account or uninstalling Windy Word does not remove them.

Does Windy train its AI on my recordings?

Only if you choose to. Windy does not use your content to train or improve its engines, and will not start doing so without asking you first. If you turn on Contribute my voice in Windy Word, the recordings you donate to the Windy Voice Project are used to train and test Windy's own speech models, but not to identify you or to make a voice of you. And when ordering opens, a voice clone is made from your recordings only if you order one.

Will a voice model of me be made without my agreement?

No. A voice model of you will be something you choose: it will be described to you before you choose it, and you will consent to it separately.

Can I make a clone of someone else's voice?

No. Windy Clone is only for a clone of your own voice, made from your own recordings in Windy Word. You may not use Windy to process content you have no right to process, and you are responsible for having the rights you need in anything you record.

Are my Voice Project donations used to make a voice of me?

No. Recordings donated to the Windy Voice Project are not used to identify you or to make a voice of you.

How do I delete my voice data?

Delete your Windy account. Windy Clone then locks your voice data at once and erases it 30 days later, unless you undo the delete by signing in again before then. Recordings Windy Word saved on your computer stay there until you delete them.
