Included with the hardware
AI Content Studio generation is included at no extra charge with Look2Innovate hardware projects, so there is no per-stop studio invoice or AI generation fee.
AI content production
Create scripts, translations and narrated audio yourself in Look2Guide. The AI Content Studio is included at no extra charge with all Look2Innovate hardware projects.
The self-service AI option gives your team direct access to the AI Content Studio inside Look2Guide. You can draft text, generate narration, create visitor languages, add background sound, review the waveform and publish approved audio to the exhibit without commissioning a separate production team.
We can include these tools at no extra charge with every Look2Innovate hardware project because we developed our own text-to-speech algorithms, AI models and production workflow, and host the generation on Look2Guide-controlled infrastructure. This supports a GDPR-compliant workflow: scripts, source audio and generated narration are not sent to third parties for AI training, and customer content is not used to train our models.
Free generation does not make every result equal to a directed studio recording. Your team remains responsible for factual review, pronunciation, tone and visitor testing. For content that depends on acting, emotional timing or complex cultural context, choose human or AI-assisted production.
What we can produce

- In-house text-to-speech narration with voice and mood selection
- Tour translation into additional visitor languages
- Per-part editing, silence timing and unlimited regeneration
- Background audio support and waveform preview
- Direct publishing to exhibit content in Look2Guide
How the production works
- 01
Write or import the script
Start with your own approved text or use the AI tools to prepare a draft, then edit it inside the exhibit.
- 02
Choose the delivery
Select a voice and mood, divide the narration into editable parts, set pauses and add background sound if needed.
- 03
Generate and review
Listen to the complete stop, correct text or pronunciation, and regenerate only the parts that need work as often as required.
- 04
Publish to the exhibit
Attach the approved audio directly to the right exhibit and language, ready for distribution to the visitor devices.
Why choose this model
Edit whenever the exhibition changes
Correct a fact, change a date, add a temporary stop or create a language later. You do not need to find the original voice actor or reopen the complete tour.
Private, controlled generation
Our own TTS algorithms and AI models run on Look2Guide-controlled infrastructure for GDPR-compliant production. Customer content is not used for model training.
From editor to device in one system
The script, narration, language and exhibit stay connected, reducing file handoffs and making the current published version easier to track.
Trade-offs to plan for
- AI voices do not consistently match the nuance, emotional timing and character of a professionally directed human actor.
- Names, specialist terminology, translated meaning and factual claims require review by someone who knows the collection and target language.
- A generated first pass may need several text, pause, voice or mood adjustments before it works in the gallery.
- Your team must listen on the real device in the real visitor environment before publishing broadly.
Inside the AI Content Studio
Edit every part
Change the words, voice, mood or silence for one part and regenerate it without rebuilding the whole stop.
Create complete language versions
Use approved source transcripts to prepare translated narration across all ready exhibits in one guided workflow.
Review before visitors hear it
Generated audio remains a draft until your team has listened, corrected it and chosen to publish.
Keep production private
Generation runs on Look2Guide-controlled infrastructure, and customer scripts and audio are not used to train models.
Questions about this production model
Is AI content production included at no extra charge?
The AI Content Studio is included at no extra charge with Look2Innovate hardware projects. Your own team writes or reviews the content and operates the tools. If you want our producers, writers or language reviewers to do that work, choose an AI-assisted production scope.
Where is the AI audio generated?
Our in-house TTS algorithms and AI models run on Look2Guide-controlled infrastructure. Scripts, source audio and generated narration are not sent to third parties for AI training, and customer content is not used to train our models.
Can we edit content after launch?
Yes. You can edit the script or settings, regenerate only the affected audio parts, review the result and publish the update to the exhibit without rebooking a voice actor.
When should we choose a human voice instead?
Choose a human production when the tour depends on acting, emotional timing, a recognisable narrator or fine control over a distinctive character. AI works best for straightforward informational content, additional languages and material that changes regularly.
