About AI audio & speech models
AI audio models cover text-to-speech (TTS), voice cloning and music generation. The best model depends on your use case: real-time voice agents prioritise low latency and natural prosody, while audiobook or dubbing work prioritises voice fidelity and emotional range. When comparing TTS and audio models, weigh quality against latency, language coverage, voice-cloning support and licensing. Open-weights speech models can be self-hosted for privacy-sensitive applications, while hosted APIs offer the highest-quality voices with minimal setup. Browse the list below to compare audio and speech models by provider and availability, review the benchmarks page, and use compare to evaluate two models for your application.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose the right model?
Weigh raw capability against practical constraints like context window, latency, licensing and price. Use the benchmarks page to compare rankings and the compare tool to evaluate two candidates side by side.
Where can I see benchmark scores?
Visit the benchmarks page to compare these models on standardised tests, then use the compare tool for a detailed side-by-side of any two models.
