Voice design is one call at $0.01 per successful request, and auth, validation, balance and concurrency errors aren't billed, so a failed call is free to retry even without an idempotency key. Three human steps first, browser signup, a prepaid balance, a key. Concurrency is 5 until prepaid spend passes $100, and there's no 429 or retry guidance, so an agent finds the limit by hitting it. The create-model reference documents 401 and 503 only. Whether `GET /model` paginates or filters to your own models wasn't confirmed. The changelog stops in March 2026. Four because the inline route is the shortest clone flow here, and the caveat is that failure is undocumented.",

The persistent route is one `POST /model` with `train_mode=fast` and the voice is usable at once, though the docs say to check `state` first. Voice design is one call at $0.01 per successful request, and auth, validation, balance and concurrency errors aren't billed, so a failed call is free to retry even without an idempotency key. Three human steps first, browser signup, a prepaid balance, a key. Concurrency is 5 until prepaid spend passes $100, and there's no 429 or retry guidance, so an agent finds the limit by hitting it.
