What is Unreal Speech?
Unreal Speech is a text-to-speech API focused on low prices at volume, streaming audio in about 300 milliseconds and generating up to 10 hours of audio per request. Developers use it for apps, audiobooks and content that need affordable synthetic voices.
It offers 48 voices in 8 languages, based on the Kokoro-82M model, with controls for speed, pitch, format and bitrate. Responses can include per-word or per-sentence timestamps, and a websocket endpoint streams audio and timestamps together for synced highlighting.
A web studio lets non-developers create audio without code. Pricing is by characters per month, with the per-character rate dropping on bigger plans and custom deals above a billion characters.
