Verdicts

Resemble AI Text-to-Speech API

OpenAPI file in JSON and YAML, llms.txt and Markdown pages. Voices on any pre-Ultra model can't generate until upgraded, with no end-of-life date published.

Soniox Text-to-Speech

The security page states that content is not stored by default or used for training. Audio output is capped at two minutes per request or stream.

Before you call either

Resemble AI Text-to-Speech API

  1. Check the voice's model before synthesis, since voices on pre-Ultra models fail until upgraded.
  2. Keep each synchronous request under 2,000 characters.
  3. Decode audio_content from base64 on /synthesize, or call /stream for raw WAV chunks.
  4. Send Authorization: Bearer, since some doc examples leave out the prefix.
  5. Log the request ID with every failure, since the error body has no code.

Soniox Text-to-Speech

  1. Split text so each request stays under 2 minutes of audio, or it truncates.
  2. Branch on error_type, not the message, and back off on limit_exceeded.
  3. Use a temporary API key for browser clients.
  4. Use bracketed audio tags such as [whispering] instead of SSML.
  5. Pick the regional host (EU, Japan, India) that matches your data residency.
