Endpoint availability
LMNT has shut down. Historical contracts below do not establish a callable service. Exact shutdown date and any continuing third-party deployment are unverified.Source for Endpoint availability (opens in a new tab)
Creation privacy
Archived June 2023 policy allows user-content use for machine-learning training and human review. Personal information is generally retained until edited/deleted or while the person remains a user; no fixed inference-retention period or zero-retention promise established. US and other international transfers are described. Post-shutdown deletion and handling are unverified.Source for Creation privacy (opens in a new tab)
Model terms
Archived site terms describe personal, noncommercial site access; historical paid API plans advertise commercial licenses. These have different scopes, so neither a universal commercial prohibition nor unrestricted commercial rights is inferred. Separate service restrictions protect model weights. Current contractual status after shutdown is unknown.Source for Model terms (opens in a new tab)
Reference audio
5–10 seconds of representative reference speech recommended by archived guide. SDK accepts WAV, MP3, MP4, M4A and WebM; maximum upload 250 MB.Source for Reference audio (opens in a new tab)

File constraints independently documented by official voice-create SDK.

Input file formats
wav, mp3, mp4, m4a, webmSource for Input file formats (opens in a new tab)
Input limits
One reference file, maximum 250 MB, plus a name. Optional description, gender and tags. Gender is descriptive metadata and has no effect on voice creation.Source for Input limits (opens in a new tab)
Response format
Voice object with id, name, owner, state and optional metadata, preview_url and type=instant. ready/training are examples, not an exhaustive state enum. Use voice ID in a separate synthesis request.Source for Response format (opens in a new tab)
Stock voice catalog
Authenticated list supports system/me/all ownership and starred filtering. Voice profiles are user or catalogue prompts; complete private inventory was not accessed.Source for Stock voice catalog (opens in a new tab)
Model selection
A saved reference prompt is a managed profile, not a published independent base checkpoint. Professional profiles were converted to instant profiles in May 2025.Source for Model selection (opens in a new tab)
Published price
Historical plans include unlimited voice clones; downstream speech is billed by the applicable character subscription. No separate voice-enrollment price verified.Source for Published price (opens in a new tab)

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
Not collected

No immutable model selector verified. Voice IDs identify profiles, not base checkpoints.

Access
LMNT has shut down. Historical contracts below do not establish a callable service. Exact shutdown date and any continuing third-party deployment are unverified. Historical POST https://api.lmnt.com/v1/ai/voice with name and multipart file. GET/PUT/DELETE /v1/ai/voice/{id} inspect, update metadata or delete/cancel pending operations. Returned voice profile is used by separate speech endpoints.
Regions
Historical inference residency unverified. Company location is not processing-region evidence.

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

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 inference-cache contract verified. Persistent speech sessions, stored voice prompts, saved clips, SDK cached properties and random seeds are not discounted input caching.

How it works

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

Saved voice-prompt enrollment and management is documented. No stable independent base-model checkpoint is identified; this managed component must not inflate the count of native private models.
