Parameter notes
  • Public input supports text, voice, stability, similarity_boost, style, speed, timestamps, previous_text, next_text.
  • Only text characters are billed ($0.086 / 1,000 characters); previous_text and next_text are free. Text over 5,000 characters is rejected at submission without charge.
  • Multilingual v2 does not accept language_code; language is detected from the text and sending it returns a validation error.
