About Indonesian in Voxmint
Putri is a young woman from Jakarta with a sweet, clear voice and a lively pace, made for ads, app promos and friendly announcements; her sample above is exactly that kind of line. Bima is in his late thirties, with a deep, warm voice and a composed, trustworthy delivery, like the narrator of a documentary about the islands of Nusantara.
Indonesian spelling is largely phonetic, with no tones, so most of the quality comes from a clean script. Keep affixes spelled correctly and reduplication hyphenated (“buku-buku”, “anak-anak”), because a typo in an affixed word changes how it is read. Commas give a short pause, full stops a stronger break, and a mix of short and medium sentences keeps the read relaxed.
Numbers, amounts and dates are where scripts most often go wrong. Write them out the way you want them spoken, for example “dua puluh lima ribu rupiah” rather than Rp25.000, and spell out abbreviations unless your audience says them as written, like “ongkir”. English loanwords are everywhere in tech and marketing copy; short ones usually read well, but test any sentence that contains them and respell a word if it does not sound the way you want.
Decide on the register before you write. Formal Indonesian with “saya” and “Anda” suits documentaries, training and corporate video, and fits Bima naturally. Everyday Jakarta speech with “aku”, “kamu” or “kalian” sounds closer and more casual, which suits Putri’s promos and social clips. The voice follows the words you give it, so mixing the two registers in one script is what makes audio sound off.
For casting, Putri sells and Bima explains. If your brand needs someone else, such as an older woman, a regional accent or a softer male voice, describe the speaker in the studio, compare a few takes and save the description you like to your library.
Design a Indonesian voice

Questions
- Can I use the same voice across a whole series?
- Yes. Putri and Bima are catalogue voices, so each one sounds like the same speaker in every clip, which keeps a course, a podcast or a run of social videos consistent from the first episode to the last.
- What accent do the Indonesian voices have?
- Both have a Jakarta accent. Putri is a young female radio-ad voice and Bima an adult male documentary narrator.
- Should I write saya or aku?
- Follow your audience. “Saya” and “Anda” keep things polite and formal, while “aku” and “kamu” sound casual and close. Pick one register and keep it for the whole script.
- How are numbers and amounts of money read?
- Write them out in words when the exact reading matters, for example “lima puluh ribu rupiah”. That way you decide precisely what the voice says.
- Does it handle English words in an Indonesian script?
- Short loanwords and brand names usually read naturally. Test any sentence that contains them, and respell a word if you want it said differently.
- Can I make my own Indonesian voice?
- Yes. Describe the voice you want in a sentence, its age, accent, mood and pace, and voice design creates it for your Indonesian script. Save the description to your library to reuse it, or pick Putri or Bima when you need exactly the same speaker every time.
- Is it free to try?
- Yes. You can listen to both Indonesian voices and try your own script for free; signing up takes a minute.
