What it is for
POST text to /stream or /speech and get MP3 plus optional word timestamps. Use it when the job is cheap TTS characters with a public monthly card, not a cloned-voice studio.
It is not open source. Free exists ($0, 250K characters / month).
What makes it unique: the cover is Unreal Speech’s live Live Demo composer — Sierra / US English, speed + pitch, Synthesize — not an OG poster.
Key features
- Live Demo — 250-character box, voice / language / format (cover).
/stream— ≤1,000 chars, ~300 ms (Home)./speech+/synthesisTasks— 3,000 chars sync; 500,000 chars async.- Word timestamps —
/streamWithTimestampsorTimestampType. - 48 voices / 8 languages — no cloning yet (FAQ).
Who it's for
Best fit: developers who will stay on 250K Free chars, then Basic.
Poor fit: teams that need instant voice clones (ElevenLabs).
