Choosing a text to speech API

Time to first audio
How quickly speech starts after you send text, measured in your own region.
02
Streaming support
Whether you can send text as it’s generated, over WebSocket or SSE.
03
Pronunciation control
How you fix names, numbers, and specialist terms, and whether the fix applies every time.
04
Voices and languages
Whether the voices and languages you need are in the catalog for the model you choose.
05
Cost at your volume
The price per character at your real monthly volume, including regenerated responses.
Choosing a voice agent platform
01
Who owns the logic
Whether your code controls the conversation, or the platform does.
02
Phone numbers and telephony
Renting numbers, bringing your own carrier with SIP, and transfers to people.
03
Tools and integrations
How the agent reads and updates your CRM, calendar, and internal APIs during a call.
04
Day-to-day operations
Campaigns, transcript review, testing, and version history for the team running agents.
05
Full cost per minute

How we compare providers
Prepared by Smallest AI from public product documentation. These are product-fit comparisons, not independent benchmarks.
Public sources on every row
Each comparison cites the product documentation it’s based on, so you can check every claim.
A review date on every page
Products change quickly, so each page shows when it was last checked against current docs.
The other provider’s strengths
Every page says when the other provider may be the better fit, not only when Smallest is.
