Versa 2.0’s output for exactly the text shown, through the public API, unedited.
Text in, German out.
Text to speech turns written German into spoken audio. Ours is Versa, a speech model we train ourselves: it generates each chunk of sound in parallel instead of one token at a time, so the first audio arrives in about 65 ms and the rest streams behind it.
Every voice speaks German, and a voice agent can listen and answer in German on the web or on the phone.

Common questions.
How much does German text to speech cost?
$4.10 per million characters, the same in every language, billed per character from a prepaid balance. New accounts get $5 of credit with no card, about 1.2 million characters.
Which voices speak German?
All ten. Versa is zero-shot, so a voice is a timbre rather than a language: every voice speaks every one of our nine languages, German included.
Can I clone a voice in German?
Yes. Record or upload 3 to 30 seconds of speech in the dashboard and the new voice speaks German and the other eight languages. Only clone a voice you own or have permission to use.
Can a voice agent hold a conversation in German?
Yes. A Lokutor voice agent listens and answers in German, on the web or on the phone, for about 5¢ a minute with the language model included.
