Only the Portal flow asks the user to confirm rights to the voice\n\n\n## Why the edge\n\n### Security \u0026 auth: Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +32\n\n- Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP (23): Graded for voice cloning, with consent and misuse controls in place of the read-only line and training and retention of voice data in place of the prompt-injection line, since the API returns audio and IDs rather than third-party text. One account-wide API key and secret pair, regenerated together (10), and 30 minute OAuth client-credential tokens for clients (5), less 10 because the docs show the API key in a WebSocket query string, `?api_key=` (net 5 of 30). Cloning outside Enterprise happens in the Platform behind a legal agreement checkbox, with no verification (5 of 20). API data isn't used for training, but cloning outside Enterprise is a Platform submission, which may be used unless you opt out in settings, and no retention period is published (5 of 15). Usage is tracked in the portal, no per-call log found for TTS (8 of 15). No security.txt, bug bounty, SOC 2 or trust centre found, HIPAA compliance and a DPA on request are claimed (0 of 20). Per the 1 October check, not re-read on 4 November, because Hume's terms of 5 October 2026 (clause 9.4) bar robots and other automated tools from its websites, so every hume.ai host, status.hume.ai included, is paused.\n- Inworld Instant Voice Cloning (55): Graded for voice cloning as the other listings in this category were, with consent and misuse controls in place of the read-only line and training and retention of voice data in place of the prompt-injection line. Revocable workspace keys that are read-only for the Voice API until a write toggle is set, Realtime-only keys and single-use tokens, sent in a header (25 of 30). The API has no consent or verification field and no watermark was found. Only the Portal asks the user to confirm rights, and the Terms (11 June 2025), now read, have no clause on cloned voices. The write toggle keeps a default key from cloning (6 of 20). The Terms say Inworld won't train generally available models on non-public Materials except feedback and trust and safety content, while the Privacy Notice lists training among its uses. Zero Data Retention excludes cloning samples and no retention period for them is published (7 of 15, was 4). Usage is attributed per key in the dashboard and an experimental usage records endpoint exists from the Builder plan. No audit log found (7 of 15). GDPR and SOC 2 Type II are stated on every plan on the pricing page, and the security page links a vulnerability report form. No security.txt (404 per the 30 October inworld-tts check) and no bug bounty found (10 of 20, was 8). 25+6+7+7+10 = 55.\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP +23\n\n- Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP (87): OpenAPI and AsyncAPI files at dev.hume.ai/openapi.json and asyncapi.json, listed in llms.txt (25). llms.txt and Markdown pages (10). The voice guides explain designing from a description and saving a generation, with less on when not to use it (12 of 20). Inputs typed, utterances take a description and text, saving takes a generation ID and a name (12 of 15). Examples throughout and a page of named error codes with fixes (13 of 15). Versioned `/v0` paths and a public changelog (15). Per the 1 October check, not re-read on 4 November, because Hume's terms of 5 October 2026 (clause 9.4) bar robots and other automated tools from its websites, so every hume.ai host, status.hume.ai included, is paused.\n- Inworld Instant Voice Cloning (64): No OpenAPI file is linked from the docs or `llms.txt`, re-read on 6 November. The MCP server has typed inputs on all 40 tools, which earns part of the line (10 of 25). `llms.txt`, `llms-full.txt` and Markdown twins (10). The guides say when to use instant cloning, Professional Voice Cloning or Voice Design, and the reference warns which fields are ignored (15 of 20). Required fields and base64 audio are typed, and a new `languageCode` string is validated against the catalogue with `INVALID_ARGUMENT`, while size and length limits sit in prose and the MCP tool still states different ones (10 of 15). Examples in curl, Python, JavaScript and the CLI, with one error response shown and no error list for the Voice API (9 of 15). A `/v1/` path and dated TTS release notes, newest 11 September, with no changelog for the Voice API itself (10 of 15). 10+10+15+10+9+10 = 64.\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +23\n\n- Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP (45): Read as a closing service, since TTS and EVI API access ends on 13 November 2026, with recency from the last change to the listed product's code, and the umbrella rule for the `hume` SDKs. The last release touching TTS code is Python SDK 0.14.1 (17 August 2026, on PyPI per the 1 October check), built from the Fern regeneration dd9d2c4 of the same day, which sets the version to 0.14.1 and changes the TTS validation error types. It is reached only from a Fern generation tag, not from main or a version tag. 79 days, so 20 of 30, as on 1 October. From 6 August there are only 0.14.1 and the 2 October shutdown notice. TypeScript 0.16.1 (18 August) removed the uuid dependency with no TTS code and isn't counted. That is two dated entries, short of three (0). @humeai/mcp-server's newest tag is 0.3.0 on 8 January 2026. A public changelog, gone quiet, and no answering support channel confirmed (5 of 15). Official Python and TypeScript SDKs (15). TypeScript SDK released within 90 days, Python 3.9 to 3.15 (5 of 10). 20 + 0 + 5 + 15 + 5 = 45.\n- Inworld Instant Voice Cloning (68): Read as a model, on the lines inworld-tts and cartesia-voice-cloning use (recency 30, dated releases 10, deprecation notice 10, support 15, SDKs 15, health 10). The 9 October draft used the tool lines and gave 75. `@inworld/cli` 1.5.0, whose MCP server carries `clone_voice`, on 29 October 2026, after 1.4.0 (13 October), 1.4.1 (23 October), 1.4.2 and 1.4.3 (25 October) (30). Dated TTS release notes on 9 August and 11 September 2026, and none for the 28 October model update or for the Voice API (10). `inworld-tts-1` was discontinued on 15 June 2026 with requests routed to newer models, and clones made before 15 August keep a 15-second prompt, with no notice period stated (5 of 10). A public changelog, a Discord server and support@inworld.ai, with no evidence read of how they answer (8 of 15). `@inworld/tts` 1.1.1 dates from 6 May 2026 (10 of 15). The CLI is current, but the repositories named in its npm metadata aren't public (5 of 10). 30+10+5+8+10+5 = 68.\n\n### Reliability: Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +17\n\n- Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP (58): Status page at status.hume.ai (incident.io) with a Text-to-speech API component (20). We couldn't read an incident history on 1 October, the history page returned 404 (5). The sibling EVI listing read the history feed on 1 and 2 October, which holds one TTS incident of about 7 minutes on 19 September; 3 October to 4 November is unread, and a partly unread window keeps its recorded award, so 5 holds. Requests per minute are published by plan on the pricing page, 15 on Free and Starter up to 225 on Business (15). Rate limiting returns error E0811 with 'try again later', and the official SDKs retry with exponential backoff (8, an in-between value kept and flagged). No idempotency or safe-retry guidance for saving a voice (0). No SLA published (0). Voice design over the TTS API is generally available until API access ends on 13 November 2026 (10). 20 + 5 + 15 + 8 + 0 + 0 + 10 = 58. Per the 1 October check, not re-read on 4 November, because Hume's terms of 5 October 2026 (clause 9.4) bar robots and other automated tools from its websites, so every hume.ai host, status.hume.ai included, is paused.\n- Inworld Instant Voice Cloning (75): Graded on the REST API, the surface an agent would call. Status page at status.inworld.ai, drawn from GitHub issues, with five components and none for cloning (20). Read through the GitHub API on 6 November, the 90 days from 8 August hold two incidents, 29 minutes of elevated TTS latency on 25 August and 26 minutes of elevated TTS 2.1 errors from a network fault at one GPU site on 28 October, both minor (20). Cloning limits are published per plan, 2 to 20 requests a minute (15). A 429 is documented with exponential backoff and jitter code, and since the 9 October check the rate-limits page says limits over a minute can carry `Retry-After`. No idempotency key or safe-retry guidance for clone creation (10 of 15, was 9). The pricing page, now read, names an SLA on Enterprise only with no terms or figure, as on inworld-tts (0). Instant cloning carries no Preview or Beta mark (10). 20+20+15+10+0+10 = 75.\n\n### Agent ergonomics: Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP +11\n\n- Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP (75): The official MCP server has 5 tools, but the JSON TTS endpoint returns base64 audio inside the response, which is heavy in a context window (20 of 25). The voice list paginates and filters by `provider`, so `CUSTOM_VOICE` returns only your voices (20). Named error codes (E0601, E0811 and others) say whether to retry (20). No idempotency key and no job to poll, a design call simply runs again (0 of 20). Few required fields, official Python and TypeScript SDKs (15). Per the 1 October check, not re-read on 4 November, because Hume's terms of 5 October 2026 (clause 9.4) bar robots and other automated tools from its websites, so every hume.ai host, status.hume.ai included, is paused.\n- Inworld Instant Voice Cloning (64): The clone response echoes up to 15 seconds of processed audio as base64 with no way to leave it out. The MCP tool returns a compact result, but the server loads 40 tools with no toolsets, registering only those the credentials can call (13 of 25). Voice lists take an AIP-160 `filter`, `pageSize`, `pageToken` and `orderBy`, including `source = \"IVC\"`, and a capacity endpoint reports used and maximum custom voices (20). Errors are a numeric code, a message and details, and the one example reads clearly, but no list is documented for the Voice API (12 of 20). No idempotency key, no MCP annotations in the 1.5.0 package, and the SDKs retry 5xx and network errors twice by default (4 of 20). Two required fields, language auto-detection, and official Python and Node.js SDKs (15). 13+20+12+4+15 = 64.\n\n### Payments \u0026 pricing: Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +10\n\n- Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP (30): No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Per-unit overage prices are public, $0.15 per 1,000 characters on Creator down to $0.05 on Business (20). A $0 Free plan includes voice design over the API, but cloning over the API is Enterprise-only and the card requirement isn't stated (10 of 20). Signup is a human browser flow (0). Per the 1 October check, not re-read on 4 November, because Hume's terms of 5 October 2026 (clause 9.4) bar robots and other automated tools from its websites, so every hume.ai host, status.hume.ai included, is paused.\n- Inworld Instant Voice Cloning (40): No x402, MPP or L402 (0). The pricing page, unread on 9 October and read on 6 November, publishes per-character rates for speech from a clone, $25 per million characters on TTS-2 and $15 on TTS-2 Flash on the free plan, and no charge for creating a clone (20, was 10). The On-Demand plan is free with 100 custom voices and instant cloning, and no card is asked for (20). `inworld login` opens a browser and signup is a human flow. The CLI mints keys only after that (0). 0+20+20+0 = 40.\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP | Inworld Instant Voice Cloning | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 58 | 75 | Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +17 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 87 | 64 | Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP +23 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 75 | 64 | Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP +11 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 23 | 55 | Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +32 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 30 | 40 | Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +10 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 45 | 68 | Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +23 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 57 | 63 | Inworld Instant Voice Cloning +6 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | 0 | 0 | |\n| **Total** | | **54.6 · C** | **61.9 · C** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP | Inworld Instant Voice Cloning |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Model API | Model API |\n| Vendor | Hume AI | Inworld AI |\n| Hosted endpoint | `https://api.hume.ai/v0/tts` | `https://api.inworld.ai` |\n| Transports | HTTP, stdio | HTTP, stdio, Streamable HTTP |\n| Auth | API key | API key |\n| Pricing | Freemium | Freemium |\n| Price for voice cloning | not published | $15 per 1M characters |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | MIT (SDKs) | Proprietary service under Inworld's Terms of Service.

Cloning over the API is Enterprise-only. Hume ends API access on 13 November 2026.\n\n**Inworld Instant Voice Cloning.** One JSON call returns a usable voice ID from 3 to 30 seconds of audio, with no charge per clone and 100 custom voices on the free plan, behind keys that are read-only until write access is switched on. The API has no consent field, and Zero Data Retention excludes cloning samples.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP\n\n1. Design with `POST /v0/tts` using an utterance `description` plus sample `text`, then save a `generation_id` with `POST /v0/tts/voices`\n2. Request several generations and pick one. A saved voice can't be tuned afterwards\n3. List your own voices with `GET /v0/tts/voices?provider=CUSTOM_VOICE`\n4. Use `/v0/tts/file` or streaming rather than the JSON endpoint to keep base64 audio out of context\n5. On E0811 back off and retry, the request was rate limited\n\n### Inworld Instant Voice Cloning\n\n1. Create the key with write access (`inworld workspace add-key --write`). A default key gets code 7, insufficient access level, on `voices:clone`\n2. Send the complete Base64 credential as `Authorization: Basic $INWORLD_API_KEY`. Don't encode it again\n3. Send one 10 to 30 second WAV or MP3 clip as base64 in `voiceSamples[].audioData`. Audio past 30 seconds is cut\n4. Don't blind-retry a clone. There's no idempotency key, so list voices with `filter=source=\"IVC\"` first, and back off with jitter on 429\n5. Set `gender`, `ageGroup` and `categories` with UpdateVoice afterwards. The clone call ignores them without an error\n6. The response echoes up to 15 seconds of processed audio as base64 in `audioSamplesValidated`. Drop it before passing the result to a model\n\n## Tutorials\n\n- [Create and preview a voice in Hume](https://www.anchorterminal.com/tutorials/hume-voice-cloning/), for Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP or Inworld Instant Voice Cloning?\n\nInworld Instant Voice Cloning scores 61.9 (C) on agent readiness against Hume Octave Voice Design and Cloning + MCP's 54.6 (C), and leads in 5 of 7 scored categories.
