Thresholds measure total prepaid funds, not spend. All keys and ASR share the pool; 429 responses have no Retry-After header. Free-tier fair-use conditions also apply.

Rate conditions
Full recording including silence, rounded up to the next second, once per successful request. Error responses are not billed. One request holds a shared concurrency slot until complete.
Fish Audio terms permit Usage Data and Content to improve its models, including third-party components. Public terms do not establish universal zero retention. Free S2.1 has no DPA or TTFA guarantees; confirm production contractual terms separately. Voice inputs require appropriate rights.
OpenRouter prompt/response logging and improvement use are opt-in; metadata is retained. Upstream provider policies remain separate, so routing through OpenRouter does not itself establish Fish Audio zero retention.
Caching can reuse earlier input processing. Availability, lifetime and billing depend on the endpoint. A cache hit still generates a new response.
01 / INITIAL INPUTProcess & retain
The system processes eligible input and retains reusable state.
02 / LATER REQUESTCheck available state
Reuse depends on matching input, session state and the cache policy.
03 / CACHE HITReuse & generate
Reusing state can reduce repeated work. Any charges follow the billing rules below.

What the measurements say
No benchmark observations have been added for this model. We do not turn a vendor description into a performance score.
Latency and throughput depend on the host, request size, reasoning settings and load. There is no measured speed or global usage figure in this record.
The record behind the model
Why it is included
The official API documents this named managed model under Fish Audio service terms that reserve service IP and restrict reverse engineering. The reviewed official weight inventory does not publish this release; the separately downloadable S2 Pro and S1-mini are excluded. Exact internal checkpoint lineage remains unverified.
