This page reads your text with Qwen-Audio 3.0 TTS Flash, a fast text-to-speech model that handles Chinese, English and text that mixes both. It's the same model and the same voices you can call with an API key, so what you hear is what your app will get.
It's built for trying things out: a product name, a greeting, a line of dialogue or a short ad read, up to 200 characters. Longer scripts, batches and other formats belong in the API, where you pay per 1,000 characters and keep full control of the output.

Tips for natural-sounding speech
Punctuate for pauses
Commas and periods become pauses. Break long sentences up for a more natural rhythm.
Write numbers the way they're read
"Twenty twenty-six" and "2026" can sound different. Spell out what matters.
Match the voice to the language
Use the bilingual voice for Chinese or mixed text and the American voices for English-only lines.
Try a line twice
Small wording changes can change emphasis. Compare two versions before you commit.
Keep clips short
Short clips are easier to edit and swap. Generate long scripts paragraph by paragraph.
Check rights for commercial use
Make sure you have the right to the text you voice, especially for ads and branded content.
