Speechify
Developer of the Simba speech-model family and the SpeechifyAI developer API. Developer API billing is separate from the consumer Reader app.
Simba 3.2, 3.0, the two legacy Simba 1.6 engines, historical Base/Turbo and the catalog-documented Dialogue 1.0 reviewed. Private deployments, full workspace voice inventories and exact Dialogue entitlement remain unresolved.
Start with the job your model needs to do. Then narrow by capabilities, provider and price.
Compare every model with the same request.
Estimate = (input tokens × input price + output tokens × output price) / 1,000,000. Include conversation history in input and billed reasoning in output. Input-only decision models ignore the output setting; enter all billed input for one decision, including its question and criteria. Media, tools and discounts are separate.
