Use case · Short-form video
Voice your Reels and Shorts in any Arabic dialect, in seconds.
Short-form lives or dies on the first three seconds. A clean, native voice in the dialect your audience actually speaks is what sells the hook. Hakim ships a stock catalogue of Arabic voices across MSA and 14 regional dialects, generates a 60-second clip in under five seconds, and exports straight into your editor of choice.
Three steps from script to scroll-stopping clip
Write the script
Drop in your hook, your three beats, and your call to action. Pure text. The playground accepts up to 5,000 characters per generation, which covers anything that fits inside a 60- or 90-second short.
Pick a voice and dialect
Filter the catalogue by dialect (Khaleeji, Egyptian, Levantine, Maghrebi), gender, age, and style (energetic, casual, news, calm). Preview each voice with the same 8-second sample so you can A/B before committing. The right voice for a Riyadh audience is not the right voice for Cairo.
Generate, download, drop in
Generate produces an MP3, WAV, or FLAC export. Drag it into CapCut, Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, or Adobe Express; align it to the visual cuts; publish. No extra plugins, no proprietary timeline format.
Built for short-form creators
15 dialects, picked the way creators pick
Most TTS catalogues offer one Arabic voice and call it a day. Hakim's catalogue is filterable by dialect because creators target a country, not a language. Khaleeji warmth for the Gulf hook, Egyptian energy for the North Africa scroll, Levantine cadence for the Mashriq.
Voice library refreshed every month
We ship new voices monthly: news anchors, casual narrators, character voices for skit accounts, brand voices for ads. The catalogue page shows the date each voice landed so you can find the new ones without scrolling through what you already auditioned.
Generation under five seconds
60-second clips render in under five seconds for the first generation; under three for the iteration cycle (same voice, edited script). Fast enough to sit inside the scripting flow rather than break it.
No API required
The playground does the full job for creators who don't write code. The API is there for teams batching at scale (a creator agency producing dozens of accounts a day, a media company running a weekly news ticker), but the single-creator flow is browser-only and free for the first 10,000 characters per month.

TikTok creators
Hook-led short-form on TikTok where the voice carries the punchline. The Egyptian and Khaleeji catalogues over-index here; both are popular in the algorithm's Arabic feeds across the GCC and North Africa.
Instagram Reels
Aesthetic-led short-form on Instagram. Cleaner narration, calmer voice profiles. The MSA catalogue is the safe pick for pan-Arab audiences; the dialect catalogue earns its keep on accounts targeting one country.
YouTube Shorts
Educational and explainer short-form on YouTube where the voice is doing more cognitive work. Hakim Faseeh v2 reads better here than the speed tier because the listener pays attention longer and the premium prosody compounds.
Marketing micro-content
Brand teams running paid social with rotating creative. One stock voice across the campaign, dialect-tuned to the target market. Generation is fast enough to A/B six variants in a single afternoon.
