Access & pricing

Prices belong to an endpoint and billing tier. A provider listing does not guarantee access for every account or region.

API model ID
default
Access
Historical default alias, not a current pinned selector. Original-generation availability unverified.
Regions
Default API routes to the nearest cluster without residency commitment. Paid enrolled organizations can pin EU or US inference; account data and custom voices remain in the EU, including for US inference.

Endpoint pricing has not been collected. Check the provider for applicable rates.

Data & enterprise terms

Paid plans can disable speech-session payload retention in organization Privacy Settings; this is opt-in, not a universal default. Standard ZDR excludes voice-design prompts and clone samples. Enterprise can contract extended coverage. Terms permit improvement/training use unless ZDR is activated; feedback has separate handling.

Caching

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.

Not verified

No reviewed model-specific prompt-cache contract. Reused WebSockets, stored voices and pronunciation dictionaries do not establish discounted prompt caching.

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 proprietary service license reserves ownership of models and restricts copying, redistribution and extraction. Phonon is supplied as a separately licensed, partner-specific binary; offline deployment is not an open-weight license. Public SDKs and evaluation datasets do not grant production model weights.
