What's your way of showing you care?

In Seoul, it can sound like "Have you eaten?"
In Moscow, like "Put your hat on, it's minus twenty out."
In Tbilisi, like a toast to the guests.

We built Simba 3.5 to connect people in 48 languages, spoken like a local. Out today.

Sound on.

No sentence splitter or request queue on your side. How it works, and every session we timed: https://t.co/JNYb7La7PC

[SpeechifyAI @SpeechifyAI]

SpeechifyAI now takes text over a WebSocket as your LLM writes it, and speaks each sentence the moment it is complete. Measured from US East on 9 Oct 2026, the first word was audible 49 ms after the LLM finished its first sentence.

The script and every request: https://t.co/WpsqyewcrM

[SpeechifyAI @SpeechifyAI]

We timed 13 text-to-speech endpoints from US East on 9 Oct 2026 and published every request.

Simba 3.2 had the lowest first audible audio of the 13: a median of 47 ms over our WebSocket, 64 ms over HTTP.

[SpeechifyAI @SpeechifyAI]

On 13 Oct 2026, none of the seven other TTS APIs we checked documented a way to do this. How it works: https://t.co/ZDYTMuUAcv

[SpeechifyAI @SpeechifyAI]

Our Text-to-Speech API can now limit or block one end user of your app, not your whole account.

Send safety_identifier, a hash of your own user id, and ask us to cap or block that user. They get a 429 or a 403; your other users never notice.

$91 a month for 10M characters of text to speech on SpeechifyAI, subscription included. Among per-character prices the next is $150, and ElevenLabs v3 is $800.

Priced from each vendor's page on 28 Sep 2026. The post puts every model's blind-listening score beside its price.

[Voice Arena @voicearena_ai]

SpeechifyAI's Simba 3.2 is now the fastest model on the @voicearena_ai US English 🇺🇸 latency board: 123.0 ms to first audio at the median, climbing from #9 at 392.5 ms in its earlier series.

SpeechifyAI shipped serving-side updates, our latest measurement series picked them up, and the ranking moved. That is exactly what measuring in public is for.

At 123.0 ms it sits 45.5 ms ahead of Inworld TTS 2 at 168.5, more than three times faster than its own earlier number, and with a quality rank range of 6 to 8 on the same 20-model board it joins the quality-versus-speed frontier.

Congratulations to @SpeechifyAI 👏

Two independent benchmarks in two days, both put Simba 3.2 at blazing fast speeds, while being top for benchmark quality and 10x more affordable than labs.

Coval measured Simba 3.2 at 106 ms to first audio, Voice Arena at 123 ms, the fastest on their US English board. Same voices, same price, no code change. Chart: Voice Arena
