Where this model earns its cost — and where it doesn't.
This model converts text input into audio output with support for expressive voice profiles and brand-safe delivery. It operates in a balanced cost tier with medium generation speed and is designed specifically for speech synthesis.
On Kyma, it runs through an OpenAI-compatible endpoint using a single API key. Prompt caching bills repeated prompt prefixes at 10% of the input rate. Requests automatically failover to healthy serving paths if degradation occurs, and exact billing details are returned in the usage.cost field.
The model does not support reasoning, vision, or structured outputs. It accepts text input only, has a 5,000-token context window, and is strictly an audio generation endpoint. New accounts receive a $0.50 signup credit to test the pipeline.
Multilingual Voiceover Generation
Produce localized audio tracks for videos and presentations across 29 supported languages.
Brand Narrative Synthesis
Maintain consistent, brand-safe vocal delivery across marketing and onboarding content.
Long-Form Storytelling Audio
Render expressive narration for audiobooks, podcasts, or interactive media.
Text Translation to Speech
Convert written translations into natural-sounding audio for accessibility or localization workflows.
Not ideal for: Do not use this model for tasks requiring text reasoning, structured JSON output, or ultra-low latency streaming, as it only generates audio and operates at a medium speed tier.
